The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1704-1734, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

Extent, characteristics and policy applications of Key Biodiversity Areas

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1735-1759, August 2026.
ABSTRACT A global standard for the identification of Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) was published 10 years ago to provide a unified set of criteria for identifying ‘sites of significance for the global persistence of biodiversity’. We review the initiative's origins, the KBA identification process, characteristics of the current network, threats, policy

Population Density and Spatial–Temporal Niche Use of Ship Rats and Italian Wall Lizards on a Small Adriatic Island

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We quantified population density and spatial–temporal niche use of ship rats (Rattus rattus) and Italian wall lizards (Podarcis siculus) on a small uninhabited Adriatic islet using spatially explicit capture–recapture, distance sampling, and camera trapping.

Disrupted Skies: How Offshore Wind Farms Alter Flight Behavior of Breeding Seabirds

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Using high‐resolution 1‐s tracking bursts collected every hour, we quantified within‐trajectory flight behavior of breeding Bridled Terns near offshore wind farms. Birds showed increased mean redirection and lower flight altitude when trajectories were more closely aligned with turbine directions from the colony, suggesting localized, direction ...

Age at First Reproduction Predicts Sex‐Specific Parasite Infection Trajectories Through Adulthood

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Age at first reproduction predicted sex‐specific infection trajectories in male but not female shags. Early‐ and modal‐recruiting males showed within‐individual declines in parasite burden with age, whereas late‐recruiting males exhibited progressive increases.
