Rapid advances in digital imaging technology offer efficient and cost‐effective methods for
measuring seabird abundance, breeding success, phenology, survival and diet. These …

Aerial seabird surveys are often conducted so that changes in abundance may be
monitored. For example, large‐scale offshore wind farms are proposed for UK waters, and …

Seabirds select suitable habitats at sea, but these habitats may be strongly impacted by
marine spatial planning, including the construction of offshore wind farms (OWFs) and the …

Ship traffic in Northwestern European seas is intense and continuing to increase, posing a
threat to vulnerable seabird species as a result of disturbance. However, information on …

The increasing development of offshore wind farms (OWFs) worldwide leads to possible
conflicts with the ecological requirements of top predators that largely depend on offshore …

Adélie penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae) are important predators of krill (Euphausia spp.) and
Antarctic silverfish (Pleuragramma antarctica) during summer, are a key indicator of the …

It is likely that there will be a substantial increase in the number of tidal stream turbines
within the UK over the next decade. However, the ecological impacts upon marine top …

Advances in image data capture with airborne digital cameras and in object-based image
