The
need for international funding
So far, only a small fraction of the information
gathered from ringing birds is analysed and published. The
vast data set of birds ringed and recovered all over the world
allows analyses which had not even been imagined by front-line
researchers at the time when the birds had been ringed. Today,
burning questions in modern biology and in the conser-vation
and management of birds can be tackled with this unique resource
of data.
EURING will seek funding for more in-depth analyses, for a
continent-wide overview of bird migration, and for transferring
this vital information to the environmental commu-nity, policy
makers and the general public.
