Identification of wintering waterfowl high tide roosts on the Severn Estuary SSSI/SPA (Brean Down to Clevedon) 2015 (RP02262)

The aim of this project is to provide evidence of the location and nature of wintering waterfowl high tide roosts, the assemblages associated with these roosts and the relative size and importance of the roost sites to key species, as well as any known disturbance activities around these roosts, between Brean Down and Clevedon in the Severn Estuary SPA. This covers four BTO WeBs sectors, 14401, 14402, 14403 and 14404.
