Reinstate funding for Skomer Island's Guillemot monitoring

Long term studies can be rendered useless with gaps. Please solve funding gap asap

Please reinstate the funds for this so very important study. Skomer is a jewel in Wales' crown. Eevery aspect of it needs protection.

Political myopia. This study is very important.

It i simportant ot monitor sea bird populations as aspects of fish stock and pollution issue monitoring. There is an economic value as awell as maintainign up to date information on populations, seeign trends and understanding relationships between wild birds and sea conditions.

Powys

Keep this important programme going.

Please reinstate funding for Skomers Island's Guillemot monitoring

Critical situation that will never be remedied if this goes ahead

reinstate please

shame to pull the plug on such a long-term effort

To cut the funding of such an important conservation issue is ludicrous. This decision is not only maddness but is likely to cause untold damage to our seabirds!

Skomer Island is one of the key sites in JNCC's Seabird Monitoring programme and as such informs our understanding of changes in the UK and Ireland's internationally important seabird populations. To cut this funding is so short sighted at a time when there has never been a greater need for accurate informatioi to inform Marine Spatial Plans and Marine Protected Areas area designation. There are so few long term population studies, like the seabird monitoring on Skomer, we need to safeguard the last remaining ones not pull the funding.

Don't stop this valuable work

Keep study going the time scale of years of data is so important

All birds are facing declines especially sea birds, please realise that £12000 is nothing compared to what MP's have stolen!

Essential to keep this funding going

Short-sighted decision: important long-term survey. Please don't wreck it.

This is a really insignificant portion of NRW's budget but is keeping such valuable research afloat. Please think again NRW!

Skomer is such a lovely island and the data collected is so important for future conservation.

Long term monitoring programmes are the most important data sets available. With populations of all the Auk species in our seas being useful indicators of the environment. It is more important now, than ever before to keep such data sets alive. Trends continues to give insights into the wealth of pelagic habitats. Such a small amount of money will go such a long way and I believe continuous data is the only way in which we can monitor the ecosystem. Please do not cut the funding to such a fantastic resource.
