Sound reception and hearing capabilities in the Little Penguin (Eudyptula minor): first predicted in-air and underwater audiograms

Royal Society Open Science
Despite increasing concern about the effects of anthropogenic noise on marine fauna, relevant research is limited, particularly in those inaccessible species, such as the Little Penguin (Eudyptula minor).

Extending the Functionality of Behavioural Change-Point Analysis with k-Means Clustering: A Case Study with the Little Penguin (Eudyptula minor).

PLoS ONE, 2015
We present a simple framework for classifying mutually exclusive behavioural states within the geospatial lifelines of animals. This method involves use of three sequentially applied statistical procedures: (1) behavioural change point analysis to ...

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

Divorce Rates Better Predict Population‐Level Reproductive Success in Little Penguins Than Foraging Behaviour or Environmental Factors

Ecology and Evolution
Understanding the relative contributions of environmental, behavioural and social factors to reproductive success is crucial for predicting population dynamics of seabirds.

Landscape genomics: natural selection drives the evolution of mitogenome in penguins

BMC Genomics, 2018
Background Mitochondria play a key role in the balance of energy and heat production, and therefore the mitochondrial genome is under natural selection by environmental temperature and food availability, since starvation can generate more efficient ...

The Effect of Wind on the Survival of Little Penguins

, 2012
We live in a time of increased awareness of the potential effects of climate on our ecosystems. The population of Little Penguins Eudyptula minor on Phillip Island, Victoria, in south eastern Australia is one such ecosystem. Not only does this Little Penguin colony provide valuable ongoing data for ornithological research, the nightly Penguin Parade is

Using a recreational grade echosounder to quantify the potential prey field of coastal predators.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Quantifying the distribution of prey greatly improves models of habitat use by marine predators and can assist in determining threats to both predators and prey.
