The Location of the St. Kilda Archipelago:
|
 Below
I show you the location of the St. Kilda Archipelago on a map. To
the left there is Scotland and the Outer Hebrides, and at the bottom
of the picture you see Northern Ireland. Please click on the map
to see a blow-up of the St. Kilda Archipelago with all the sampling
sites. I partook in it in the context of an expedition
supported by WWF UK. You may also want to have a look at the abstract
of the expedition's report. Last
but not least, some additional pictures
of organisms encountered on St. Kilda are available.
