Résumé :
|
More than 280 000 birds have been ringed in Greenland since 1926, resulting in 15 498 recoveries of 43 species. Additionally, 1947 birds of 45 species ringed abroad have been recovered in Greenland. Most of the recoveries are of species economically important in Greenland, such as eiders, auks and gulls. This paper presents an analysis of the entire Greenland recovery material, the first since 1967. The emphasis is on movements and winter ranges of different bird populations breeding or occurring in Greenland, but summarised information on known population sizes and distributions is also given.
