文摘

The International Waterbird Census (IWC) is a global biodiversity monitoring scheme. Coordination over whole North-Africa showed that sampling design could be improved. Cost-effectiveness of IWC could be improved in a resource-constrained context. The current North African Ramsar wetlands perform well in conserving waterbirds. Coordination of IWC and extension of Ramsar network are recommended for North Africa.
