Future directions in conservation research on petrels and shearwaters
Shearwaters and petrels (hereafter petrels) are highly adapted seabirds that occur across all
the world's oceans. Petrels are a threatened seabird group comprising 124 species. They …

Speciation in seabirds: why are there so many species… and why aren't there more?
VL Friesen - Journal of Ornithology, 2015 - Springer
Speciation—the multiplication of species through the evolution of barriers to reproduction
between populations—plays a central role in evolution since it enables two or more …

Tracking through life stages: adult, immature and juvenile autumn migration in a long-lived seabird
C Péron, D Grémillet - PloS one, 2013 - journals.plos.org
Seasonal long-distance migration is likely to be experienced in a contrasted manner by
juvenile, immature and adult birds, leading to variations in migratory routes, timing and …

Identifying mechanisms of genetic differentiation among populations in vagile species: historical factors dominate genetic differentiation in seabirds
Elucidating the factors underlying the origin and maintenance of genetic variation among
populations is crucial for our understanding of their ecology and evolution, and also to help …

Contemporary and historical separation of transequatorial migration between genetically distinct seabird populations
Pelagic seabirds are highly mobile, reducing the likelihood of allopatric speciation where
disruption of gene flow between populations is caused by physically insurmountable …

Foraging segregation between two closely related shearwaters breeding in sympatry
Trophic segregation has been proposed as a major mechanism explaining the coexistence
of closely related animal taxa. However, how such segregation varies throughout the annual …

Effects of extra mass on the pelagic behavior of a seabird
C Passos, J Navarro, A Giudici, J González-Solís - The Auk, 2010 - academic.oup.com
Satellite transmitters and geographic-positioning-system devices often add substantial mass
to birds to which they are attached. Studies on the effects of such instruments have focused …

Different means to the same end: long-distance migrant seabirds from two colonies differ in behaviour, despite common wintering grounds
Although seabirds that are trans-equatorial migrants show apparently broad overlap among
populations in the non-breeding season, such large-scale pattern may conceal subtle but …
