My academic interests are in combining temporal and spatial information for understanding the distribution of animals on meso and macro scales. My PhD work is focusing on foraging strategies in shorebirds wintering along the north-east coast of England. I am particularly interested in how the birds track food resource patches through space and time. This work is described <A HREF="id3.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Foraging strategies in shorebirds"><U>here</U></A>. I am also conducting analyses of a large scale geographic dataset for a threatened Asian bird group, trying to understand the completeness of our knowledge of the global geographic ranges of these animals. Read more about this <A HREF="id4.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Geographic ranges of Galliformes"><U>here</U></A>.</div> <bR> <div> In addition to academic work, I have been involved in compiling <A HREF="id2.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Conservation of Globally Threatened Spec"><U>Conservation Action Plans</U></A> for a highly threatened group of bird species. This has involved synthesising information from a variety of published and unpublished sources, applying IUCN Red List criteria to categorise species by their likelihood of extinction, and identifying the most urgent conservation actions required to reduce each species' extinction risk.  Click <A HREF="id2.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Conservation of Globally Threatened Spec"><U>here</U></A> to read about these Action Plans.</div> <bR> <div> I am also working on a monograph of the <A HREF="id6.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Identification Guide to Cuckoos of the W"><U>cuckoos of the world</U></A> as part of the Pica Press identification guides series.  Geographic data collected during the course of this work will enable us to analyse aspects of the geographic ranges of these species.</div> <bR> <div> Richard A.
