Cutting-edge applied science
We have identified an initial portfolio of crucial sites to ensure the connectivity and conservation of at least 10% of the prioritized populations of migratory shorebirds and landbirds in the Americas.
Our work compared, integrated and standardized multiple databases from:
AFI site selection andevaluation system
Using this map, all eligible sites can be visualized by means of layers, through a geographic prioritization analysis that integrates several segmentation criteria.
In this tool you can consult general information about:
- Country
- Importance
- Counts of priority species of shorebirds or landbirds
- Area, state of conservation
- Source of data
- Type of threat
- Types of solution or investment
- Other types of threatened biodiversity according to IUCN criteria
- Carbon stocks
- Climatic shelters
- Protected areas
- Important Bird Areas (IBAs)
- Indigenous and community lands
- Social vulnerability index
- Ground cover
