Adult survival of Arctic terns in the Canadian High Arctic
Polar Research, 2018 Arctic tern (Sterna paradisaea) populations are thought to be in decline across much of their range. For long-lived seabirds, determining adult survival rates is key to understanding current population trends and predicting trajectories.

Variation in Population Synchrony in a Multi-Species Seabird Community: Response to Changes in Predator Abundance. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Ecologically similar sympatric species, subject to typical environmental conditions, may be expected to exhibit synchronous temporal fluctuations in demographic parameters, while populations of dissimilar species might be expected to show less synchrony.

Diet dichotomy between two migrant seabirds breeding near a high Arctic polynya [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 High Arctic polynyas are predictable areas of open water, which offer long-distance migrant seabirds a reliable source of food during a period when they have to replenish and accumulate energy for reproduction.

Assessing regional populations of ground-nesting marine birds in the Canadian High Arctic [PDF]
Polar Research, 2015 The Queens Channel region of Nunavut is an ecologically distinct area within the Canadian High Arctic consisting of an extensive archipelago of small, low-lying gravel islands throughout which form several localized but highly productive polynyas.

Pair bonds during the annual cycle of a long-distance migrant, the Arctic Tern (Sterna paradisaea)
Avian Research, 2021 Background The extent to which pairs remain together during the annual cycle is a key question in the behavioural ecology of migratory birds. While a few species migrate and winter as family units, for most the extent to which breeding partners associate

Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, 2020 The arctic tern (Sterna paradisaea) is a ubiquitous migratory seabird of the High Arctic, currently thought to be in decline in most of the circumpolar world, but surprisingly little is known of its biology at high latitudes.
