Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P STYLE="margin:0 0 11 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>This dataset is an extract from The Greenland Seabird Colony Register (Boertmann et al. 2010; Johansen et al. 2022), maintained by the DCE/GINR Environmental Datacenter. It contains all seabird colonies in Greenland presumed to be active (non-extinct) at the time of the data extract (see attribute LastUpdated).</SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 11 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>A colony is defined as a locality where at least 10 pairs of seabirds breed. 21 different seabird species are included in the extract: Arctic tern, Atlantic puffin, black guillemot, black-headed gull, black-legged kittiwake, common eider, common murre, glaucous gull, great black-backed gull, great cormorant, herring gull, iceland gull, ivory gull, lesser black-backed gull, little auk, northern fulmar, razorbill, Ross's gull, Sabine's gull and Thayer's gull.</SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 11 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>For each colony, the latest population count of each species present is reported. Only counts made after 1 Jan 1992 are considered. Thus, colonies that have not been visited after 1 Jan 1992 are not included. If the number of birds in a colony during the latest visit is zero, the colony is also excluded (=extinct colony). However, for the dynamic breeders common eider and Arctic tern, we report the latest count >= 10 pairs since 1 Jan 1992, even if the latest count is zero, and for Ivory gull, we report the latest non-zero count since 1 Jan 1992, even if the latest count is zero.</SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 11 0;"><SPAN>The dataset has the following attributes:</SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 11 20;"><SPAN>ColonyID: Unique identifier of the site in the Greenland Seabird Colony Register.</SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 11 20;"><SPAN>ColonyName: Greenlandic name of colony.</SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 11 20;"><SPAN>SpeciesBreeding: List of the most recent counts of the different seabird species breeding at the site, in descending order according to population size.
