Description

A direct award to the British Trust for Ornithology (BTO) to deliver the development and trialling of an acoustic monitoring scheme (BTO Acoustic Pipeline) for Red-billed Leiothrix, a potentially invasive non-native species (INNS) to the UK. The outputs of this pilot project will improve APHA's understanding of how widely dispersed Red-billed Leiothrix birds are and inform whether a control policy is recommended. This is a below threshold requirement and genuine research and development (R&D) and therefore not captured by Public Contract Regulations (PCR) 2015.
