Conservation of marine birds of northern North America:
James C. Bartonek
Seabirds live at the mercy of the ocean's long rhythms, and this volume takes the full measure of them. Bartonek's survey examines the conservation of northern North America's marine birds, weighing climate cycles, distribution, and the threats to great colonies. Serious wildlife science with a stewardship purpose. For the reader concerned with the fate of the birds of the cold seas.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
