Bioacoustics as a Measure of Population Size and Breeding Success of European Storm Petrels <i>Hydrobates pelagicus</i> Open
Obtaining measures of population size and fitness are key first steps to understanding how and why species' populations change over time. Quantifying such metrics is difficult in some species, however, due to their remote location and/or e…

Global assessment of marine plastic exposure risk for oceanic birds Open
Plastic pollution is distributed patchily around the world’s oceans. Likewise, marine organisms that are vulnerable to plastic ingestion or entanglement have uneven distributions. Understanding where wildlife encounters plastic is crucial …

Decline of Leach’s Storm Petrels Hydrobates leucorhous at the largest colonies in the northeast Atlantic Open
Leach’s Storm Petrel Hydrobates leucorhous has undergone substantial population declines at North Atlantic colonies over recent decades, but censusing the species is challenging because it nests in burrows and is only active at colonies at…

Sex differences in migration and demography of a wide-ranging seabird, the northern gannet Open
Marine vertebrates show a diversity of migration strategies, including sex differences. This may lead to differential demography, but the consequences of such between-sex variation are little understood. Here, we studied the migration of k…

Assessment of Great Skua Stercorarius skua pellet composition to inform estimates of storm petrel consumption from bioenergetics models Open
Generalist predators may exert levels of predation on particular prey that result in, or contribute to, decline of that prey species. Bioenergetics models have been used to estimate the rates of consumption of Leach’s Storm Petrels Oceanod…
