Eva Immler is an investigator from Van Hall Larenstein, University of Applied Sciences. She was last year in Corvo mapping and characterizing the suitable habitat of the Bird of the Year - Cory´s Shearwater. The investigator approach was image capture and GIS processing.
The new innovative method was tested in April and we already have the first results.
The most suitable habitat for the Cory's Shearwater is characterized by: steep inclination, no tree cover, scarce cover vegetation, broken rock and shallow soil.
We hope in a near future this technique will be tested in all the cliffs of Corvo Island.
Her work can be downloaded HERE.
Thank you Eva
