OSTI ID:371068
During a survey of 98% of Prince William Sound`s (the Sound) shoreline in May and June 1993 the authors found 184 pigeon guillemot colonies, most of which were previously unknown. There were no guillemots at 14 former colony sites, but the authors found new colonies within a few km of eight of these sites. The authors counted a total of 3028 pigeon guillemots, including 1012 that were unassociated with colonies. The authors` count is within the range of a Sound-wide estimate of 3000 to 4900 guillemots from pelagic and shoreline surveys by another project in July 1993. These figures reflect a continuing depressed population compared with a 1970`s high of about 15,000.
