Mesopelagic myctophid fish are a key component of the world's ocean food webs, linking
primary consumers and predators. Among marine predators, seabirds are globally …

Key facets of the foraging ecology of seabirds during the inter-breeding period still remain
poorly understood because of the difficulty of studying them at sea, including during the …

Aim Pelagic seabirds exploit large areas of ocean when acting as central‐place foragers
during the breeding season, and ranges are even more extensive outside the breeding …

The increasing public perception that marine megafauna is under threat is an outstanding
incentive to investigate their essential habitats (EMH), their responses to human and climate …

Annual changes in the behaviour and distribution of top predators at sea may be linked to
environmental variability. Here we report, for the first time to our knowledge, the inter-annual …

A la suite des quatre premières livraisons des 'Notes naturalistes au Sahara Atlantique
marocain'(Bergier & Thévenot 2008, Bergier et al. 2010, 2011 et 2012), cette cinquième …

Studies on sex-specific segregation in foraging behaviour and trophic niche have been
focussed on large and dimorphic seabirds, with less information on small monomorphic …

The diving capabilities of the Procellariformes remain the least understood component of
avian diving physiology. Due to their relatively small size, shearwaters may have high …

Abstract Changes in oceanographic conditions, shaped by changes in large-scale
atmospheric phenomena such as the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), alters the structure …

The white-chinned petrel (Procellaria aequinoctialis) is the seabird species most commonly
killed by Southern Hemisphere longline fisheries. Despite the importance of diving ability for …
