PREFACE
This study entitled "Interactions Between Migrating Birds and Offshore Oil and Gas Platforms in the
Northern Gulf of Mexico," also known informally as the "Migration Over the Gulf Project" (MOGP),
provides data and analyses of trans-Gulf bird migration from three years of intensive study on 13
platforms located in offshore waters in the northern Gulf of Mexico. The study was sponsored by the
Minerals Management Service (MMS) to provide environmental information to the MMS concerning the
possible influence of platforms on migrating birds. This volume focuses on broad-scale patterns of
migration and presents general findings concerning the ecology of migrants on platforms and the
influences of platforms on trans-Gulf migration.
