Patterns in tern trophic diversity in a region experiencing rapid climate change

open access: yesEcosphere
Foraging plasticity provides a mechanism for long‐lived species to adapt to rapidly changing environments. When shifts in food availability occur, individual variation in plasticity can lead to an increase in within‐species trophic diversity.

Diversity and abundance of water birds in a subarctic lake during three decades

open access: yesFauna Norvegica, 2013
The numbers of divers, ducks, gulls, terns and waders in the 15 km2 oligotrophic lake Takvatn, North Norway were estimated six times during 1983-2012. Systematic mapping surveys were done by boat within the first week after ice-break in June.

Low Nest Success of Black‐Legged Kittiwakes (Rissa tridactyla) at a Mainland Colony Is Not Associated With Disturbance From Walkers or Boats: Implications for Compensation for Offshore Renewables Impacts

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Offshore wind energy is rapidly expanding in the North sea foraging grounds of internationally important seabirds, with predicted impacts on their survival and productivity. Since reduction to breeding colony disturbance is a proposed compensation measure for these impacts, we used a seven‐year dataset of > 1400 black‐legged kittiwake nests at an ...

Postbreeding dispersal and staging of Common and Arctic Terns throughout the western North Atlantic

open access: yesAvian Conservation and Ecology, 2017
In the western North Atlantic, Common (Sterna hirundo) and Arctic (S. paradisaea) Terns are sympatric at breeding colonies but show divergent migration strategies to coastal areas of South America and pelagic regions of the Antarctic, respectively ...

Causes of interspecific variation in avian migration distance

open access: yesEcology, Volume 107, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Migration is an awe‐inspiring behavior employed by a diverse suite of taxa throughout the animal kingdom. Avian migration is arguably the most well‐known animal behavior and birds vary widely in how far they migrate, but the ecological mechanisms underlying interspecific variation in migration distance remain unclear.

Characterizing partial migration using GPS tracking: high individual consistency in greylag geese

open access: yesJournal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.
Migration is a critical ecological strategy throughout the animal kingdom and can be either fixed or flexible at the species, population, and individual levels. In partially migratory species, where only some individuals migrate, individuals may show consistency in their migratory behaviour. Greylag geese Anser anser are considered partially migratory,
