Title
Seabird Hotspots
Abstract

Seabird Getis-Ord and Maximum Curvature Hotspots

Hotspot maps have been created for four seabird species (Common Guillemot, European Shag, Razorbill, Black-legged Kitiwake) based upon established techniques for deriving hotspots from density data for the purposes of delineating potential Marine Protected Areas (Kober at al. 2010, 2012, O’Brien et al. 2012). The techniques used were Maximum Curvature and Getis-Ord analysis (see guidance notes). Using the outputs from Getis-Ord analyses we defined hotspots in three different ways, thus four hotspots are displayed (1 Maximum Curvature hotspot and 3 different Getis-Ord hotspots).
