Tracking of Arctic ternsSterna paradisaeareveals longest animal migration [PDF]
The study of long-distance migration provides insights into the habits and performance of organisms at the limit of their physical abilities. The Arctic ternSterna paradisaeais the epitome of such behavior; despite its small size (<125 g), banding recoveries and at-sea surveys suggest that its annual migration from boreal and high Arctic breeding ...

Diel Variation of CO2 Concentrations in Australian Irrigation Dams From Spring to Summer
Abstract Small artificial waterbodies such as farm dams are recognized as important sources of anthropogenic emissions. Carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes from farm dams are highly variable across spatial scales, with sites acting as sources or sinks based on single daytime measurements.

Modeling Sub‐Grid Peatland Vegetation Dynamics in the ORCHIDEE‐PEAT Land Surface Model
Abstract Peatlands store about one‐third of total global soil carbon. Vegetation composition strongly regulates peatland carbon dynamics. Global warming and climate‐driven ecohydrological changes are expected to alter peatland vegetation composition, necessitating accurate simulation of vegetation dynamics to predict future fate of peatland carbon.

At-sea abundance and distribution of skuas and jaegers (Charadriiformes: Stercorariidae) at coastal waters off central Chile [PDF]
Indexación: Web of Science; Scielo.BACKGROUND: Skuas and jaegers (Charadriiformes: Stercorariidae) are seabirds breeding at moderate to high latitudes and some perform extensive post-breeding transequatorial migrations.

Assessment of land‐based threats to Atlantic pelagic seabirds
Highly mobile pelagic seabirds face numerous land‐based threats during their breeding seasons, including invasive alien species, climate change, and diseases, which drive population declines. Using field expertise and a literature review, we collated a dataset assessing 18 threats affecting 49 species across 38 Atlantic Large Marine Ecosystems. We used

Avian influenza overview December 2025–February 2026
Abstract Between 29 November 2025 and 27 February 2026, 2514 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5) virus detections were reported in domestic (406) and wild (2108) birds in 32 countries in Europe. Albeit still at high levels after the peak was reached at the beginning of the current reporting period, the weekly number of detections has since ...

Monitoring ground-nesting seabirds in the Canadian Arctic: the Nasaruvaalik Island Field Station
The Nasaruvaalik Island field station in the high Arctic was established to facilitate research and monitoring on rare seabird species, largely to meet regulatory obligations defined in Canada's Species At Risk Act.

The influence of environmental conditions on the selection of spring migration routes by caribou
Abstract Animal migrations influence key ecological processes such as predator–prey dynamics, nutrient and energy cycling, and community structure. Long‐distance migrations are declining worldwide, and a better understanding of the factors influencing animal space use during migrations is essential to maintain this behavior in the wild.
