Avian Zoonotic diseases along the Black Sea-East Mediterranean Flyway
Project Details
| Name | Avian Zoonotic diseases along the Black Sea-East Mediterranean Flyway |
| Description | Jordan BirdWatch and the Royal Scientific Society are part of a research team including researchers and universities from Jordan, Georgia and the USA, studying avian zoonotic diseases along the eastern flyway. Most trapping and sampling in Jordan, is being carried out at the Azraq Wetland Reserve in coordination with the Royal Society for the Conservation of Nature. Priority is given to bird safety during the trapping and sampling process. |
