Definition and methods Field-by-field & Definitions and methods Field-by-field Species Species to be reported 1. Species code 2. Maps 3. Annex V species 4. Biogeographical region 5. Range 6. Population 7. Habitat for species 8. Pressure and threats 9. Conservation measures 10. Future prospects 11. Conclusions 12. Natura 2000 coverage Definition and methods Species FRVs Species to be reported 2. Maps 3. Annex V species 5. Range 6. Population (only trends) 7. Habitat for species 8. Pressure and threats 9. Conservation measures 10. Future prospects 11. Conclusions 12. Natura 2000 coverage BUT for ‘Definitions and methods’: Transversal issues of relevance for more sections should be in front Some sections probably do not need more guidance Both parts follow the order of the sections in the formats
Relationship between guidance documents Field-by-field Birds … Population (size & trends) Breeding distribution (size & trends) Pressure and threats Field-by-field Species Range (size & trends) Population (size & trends) Habitat for species … Pressure and threats Field-by-field Habitats Range (size & trends) Habitat area (size & trends) Structure and f. … Pressure and threats Issues common to the three parts are dealt with in parallel to assure (if appropriate) coherence of the guidance for both Field-by-field and Definitions and methods parts; but they are presented separately for birds, HD species and habitats.
