EURING Newsletter - Volume 1, November
1996
EUROPEAN RINGING SCHEMES: WHO'S
WHO
We thought it would have been useful to introduce the first issue
of this newsletter by offering an overview of the active schemes
within EURING. A brief presentation of the staff, organisation and
activities of the different centres would have offered a better
idea of the potential as well as of the problems which characterise
scientific bird ringing in Europe after just nearly one century
of its existence. A questionnaire has therefore been distributed
to all centres, a copy of which is enclosed here.
Getting replies was not that easy, nor fast, but yet we're very
happy we were eventually able to collect replies from ALL schemes!
This means that we're now presenting a really exhaustive and updated
list of addresses, names, activities, etc.
We ask all of you to go through this list, check again for any
further information to be added (e.g. changes in personnel, newly
activated e-mail addresses, etc.), and send us comments and suggestions.
