DNA metabarcoding as a marine conservation and management tool: A circumpolar examination of fishery discards in the diet of threatened albatrosses [PDF]
, 2017 Almost all of the world's fisheries overlap spatially and temporally with foraging seabirds, with impacts that range from food supplementation (through scavenging behind vessels), to resource competition and incidental mortality. The nature and extent of

Immersion patterns alone can predict vessel following by albatrosses
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 8, Page 1831-1843, August 2025.We demonstrate that seabird immersion patterns alone can detect high‐risk seabird‐vessel interactions, even in the absence of locational data for both seabirds and vessels. Our approach could allow for more comprehensive seabird bycatch risk assessments that quantify previously hidden seabird‐vessel interactions, such as those involving migratory life ...

Ecography, Volume 2025, Issue 5, May 2025.Food‐webs are a major component of ecosystems and determinant for their functioning and structure. The food chain length (FCL) is a key feature of food‐webs and it is crucial for the resistance of the community to external stressors. The Southern Ocean (SO) food‐web is known for being short and dominated by an Antarctic krill Euphausia superba surplus,

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 1, February 2025.Abstract Biodiversity is critical for maintaining ecosystem function but is threatened by increasing anthropogenic pressures. In the Southern Ocean, a highly biologically productive region containing many endemic species, proactive management is urgently needed to mitigate increasing pressures from fishing, climate change, and tourism.

How do seabirds modify their search behaviour when encountering fishing boats?
PLoS ONE, 2019 Seabirds are well known to be attracted by fishing boats to forage on offal and baits. We used recently developed loggers that record accurate GPS position and detect the presence of boats through their radar emissions to examine how albatrosses use Area
