Subject: Shorebird Research Group of the Americas new website


SHOREBIRD RESEARCH GROUP OF THE AMERICAS Launches New Website?The Shorebird
Research Group of the Americas (SRGA) is a consortium of researchers from
academia, government, nongovernmental organizations, and the public
interested in the biology and conservation of shorebirds in the Americas.
Our purpose is to encourage collaborative working groups, provide
communication between individuals and groups, and be a clearing house for
emerging ideas and issues related to shorebirds. The group recently
launched its new Website (URL: http://www.shorebirdresearch.org/), which
further explains the SRGA and provides information about its next meeting,
slated to be held in Mexico in Spring 2009. The Website also contains links
to species-focused working groups that are exploring potential causes for
shorebird declines, and invites those working on shorebird research to
provide the SRGA with their brief bio, publications, and Websites
describing their work. All are encouraged to explore the new SRGA Website!
Send any suggestions you may have for additional material or links to
STEPHEN BROWN (EM: sbrown at manomet.org), with "SRGA Website" in the subject
line. A Spanish-language SRGA 'mirror site' is currently under development.
