Overview

This study updates previous reports that assessed population trends of waterbird species in different parts of the Humber Estuary, in order to identify areas where species were declining contrary to, or in excess of, the trend for the Humber Estuary as a whole and, furthermore, to identify sectors that support an increasing proportion of species that are declining across the Humber Estuary as a whole.

Note: An error included when the report was originally published in 2023 was spotted and corrected in July 2025, the PDF then replaced with the correction. The error is that the figure for Table 3.1.i on p26 was duplicated and accidentally repeated as Table 3.1.ii on p27.
