Decadal change in seabird‐driven isotopes on islands with differing invasion histories
Ecological Applications, Volume 35, Issue 4, June 2025.Abstract Invasive mammal eradications are commonplace in island conservation. However, post‐eradication monitoring beyond the confirmation of target species removal is rarer. Seabirds are ecosystem engineers on islands and are negatively affected by invasive mammals.

Patterns of year-to-year variation in haemoglobin and glucose concentrations in the blood of nestling Pied Flycatchers Ficedula hypoleuca [PDF]
, 2015 Physiological tools can be used to identify the sources and consequences of stressors on animals. Understanding the influences of variation in habitat quality and anthropogenic disturbance on organism condition and health may improve future ...

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 11, Issue 3, Page 312-326, June 2025.Artificial light at night (ALAN) has global impacts on animals, yet its effects in polar regions remain underexplored. In this study, we analyzed a decade of citizen science data on seabird occurrences in Longyearbyen, using remote sensing data to assess the impact of ALAN during the polar night.

Range‐Wide Assessment of the Tasmanian Devil Gut Microbiome
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.We conducted a comprehensive assessment of gut microbiomes at 10 locations across Tasmania, utilizing molecular methods such as 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing and diet metabarcoding to investigate the influences of diet, location, sex, and age. Contrary to the prevailing notion that diet is a main driver of gut microbiome differences, we found that ...

Craniofacial diversification in the domestic pigeon and the evolution of the avian skull. [PDF]
, 2017 A central question in evolutionary developmental biology is how highly conserved developmental systems can generate the remarkable phenotypic diversity observed among distantly related species.

Eating locally: Australasian gannets increase their foraging effort in a restricted range
, 2015 During the breeding season, seabirds adopt a central place foraging strategy and are restricted in their foraging range by the fasting ability of their partner/chick and the cost of commuting between the prey resources and the nest.

Selective foraging within estuarine plume fronts by an inshore resident seabird
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2015 The distribution of predators relative to specific abiotic and biotic factors within estuarine plume fronts is largely unexplored due to the lack of fine-scale temporal and spatial oceanographic data. Defining preferred foraging conditions of seabirds in
