Potential Impact of Sea Level Rise on Seabird Nesting Islands in Acadia National Park
A multi-year study of seabird nesting islands owned in fee or under conservation easement to Acadia National Park, Maine was conducted between 2011 and 2014. A total of 13 islands (3 under fee-ownership, 10 with easements) were identified for detailed study. Islands were censused through a combination of boat-counts and direct colony walk-throughs, with detailed nest counts performed for Herring and Great Black-backed gulls and Double-crested cormorants. Presence of nesting Eider ducks and Black guillemots was also noted.
