Marine Ornithology
Marine Ornithology: Journal of Seabird Research and Conservation is published by the Pacific Seabird Group on behalf of a consortium of seabird groups: African, Australasian, Dutch, Japan, and Pacific. The journal is overseen by a steering committee appointed by the supporting seabird societies. Since 2000, the production of the journal has been taken over by the Pacific Seabird Group, acting on behalf of the consortium of seabird groups.
Seabird
The Seabird Group produce an annual colour journal Seabird, containing papers and short communications on seabird biology, conservation, identification and status. The geographical focus of the journal is the Atlantic Ocean and adjacent seas, but contributions of general interest are also welcome from other parts of the world.
Journal of Caribbean Ornithology
The Journal of Caribbean Ornithology (JCO) is a refereed scientific journal, produced by the non-profit society BirdsCaribbean. The journal has now served as an important resource for ornithological research in the Caribbean for over 35 years.
