Monitoring strategy description
Seabirds are monitored to assess trends in population size and distribution. Data are gathered within different projects but all use methodology of census of the active nests (apparently occupied nest) or census of the adult birds present on the colonies. Occasionally breeding success is recorded too. Some projects are using GPS or radio telemetry to gather data about birds feeding and resting habitats. Monitoring of the pressures and threats is not quantified i.e. it is based on simple observation of the pressure present on the colony or other bird habitat. Bycatch data are based on casual observations and therefore hard to analyse.

Gaps and plans
Since no comprehensive or systematically collected data about bycatch exists in Croatia evaluation of criterion D1C1 is impossible. Monitoring of the pressures and threats to the seabird populations should be improved by development of monitoring protocols and engagement of fishery sector in data collection.

Programme description
Selected bird species (Calonectris diomedea, Puffinus yelkouan, Phalacrocorax aristotelis desmarestii, Larus audouinii) highly depend on good status of marine environment, because they feed on the sea, mainly on large areas. Monitoring activities exists for all 4 selected bird species, because they are foreseen within existing commitments and legislation such as the Habitats and Birds Directives and national Nature protection Act as well. Birds that breed within borders of protected areas (national and nature parks) are monitored as a part of protected areas management plans implementation. Calonectris diomedea breeds on offshore island of Southern Adriatic Sea: St. Andrija, Kamik and Palagruža Islands and also on several islands in Lastovo archipelago. Puffinus yelkouan breeds on only on three offshore islands: in Lastovo archipelago and on Svetac (Sv. Andrija) and Kamik islands. Larus audouinii breeds on several islands in Southern Adriatic Sea, in area between islands Korcula, Mljet and Lastovo and Pelješac peninsula. Phalacrocorax aristotelis breeds on small, non-inhabited island distributed in whole Adriatic Sea. The largest population (more than 30% of national population) breeds in the middle Adriatic Sea, within the borders of designated NATURA2000 SPA HR1000034 Northern part of Zadar Archipelago.
