Impacts of long-line fishing on seabirds: toward identifying geographical “hotspots” of seabird mortality
Read more of: Impacts of long-line fishing on seabirds: toward identifying geographical “hotspots” of seabird mortalityThe purpose of RTD 08 was to canvass the collating, into a centralized database, of all tracking data on seabirds (principally albatrosses and petrels) affected by long-line fisheries. The objective: […]

Multicolony tracking reveals the winter distribution of a pelagic seabird on an ocean basin scale
Read more of: Multicolony tracking reveals the winter distribution of a pelagic seabird on an ocean basin scaleAim: An understanding of the non-breeding distribution and ecology of migratory species is necessary for successful conservation. Many seabirds spend the non-breeding season far from land, and information on their […]
