Phased response of the subpolar Southern Ocean to changes in circumpolar winds
Read more of: Phased response of the subpolar Southern Ocean to changes in circumpolar windsThe response of the subpolar Southern Ocean (sSO) to wind forcing is assessed using satellite radar altimetry. sSO sea level exhibits a phased, zonally coherent, bi‐modal adjustment to circumpolar wind […]

Individual spatial consistency and dietary flexibility in the migratory behaviour of northern gannets wintering in the Northeast Atlantic.
Read more of: Individual spatial consistency and dietary flexibility in the migratory behaviour of northern gannets wintering in the Northeast Atlantic.Migration is a fundamental behavioural process prevalent among a wide variety of animal taxa. As individuals are increasingly shown to present consistent responses to environmental cues for breeding or foraging, […]

A comprehensive large-scale assessment of fisheries bycatch risk to threatened seabird populations
Read more of: A comprehensive large-scale assessment of fisheries bycatch risk to threatened seabird populations1.Incidental mortality (bycatch) in fisheries remains the greatest threat to many large marine vertebrates and is a major barrier to fisheries sustainability. Robust assessments of bycatch risk are crucial for […]
