Feeding Hotspots and Distribution of Fin and Humpback Whales in the Norwegian Sea From 2013 to 2018
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Fin whales (Balaenoptera physalus) and humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) are commonly found in the Norwegian Sea during the summer months. Records from around 1995 to 2004 show that their distribution patterns were mainly associated with those of ...

Influence of age and sex on winter site fidelity of sanderlings Calidris alba [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Many migratory bird species show high levels of site fidelity to their wintering sites, which confers advantages due to prior knowledge, but may also limit the ability of the individual to move away from degrading sites or to detect alternative foraging ...

Ecosphere, 2021 Ecosystems are experiencing elevated levels of disturbance, and species with narrower niches are often more vulnerable to disturbances. Niche breadth is often measured in terms of either diet or habitat use but diet and spatial use are infrequently ...

Interannual breeding site fidelity in eastern wild turkey flocks
Wildlife Society BulletinUnderstanding space use during key life‐history periods is critical to understanding demographic outcomes of most species. For gregarious species, similar space is often shared by individuals and across generations during these key periods.

Long‐Term Demographic Trends of Near Threatened Coastal Dolphins Living in an Urban Estuary
Ecology and EvolutionUnderstanding population demography of threatened species and how they vary in relation to natural and anthropogenic stressors is essential for effective conservation. We used a long‐term photographic capture‐recapture dataset (1993–2020) of Indo‐Pacific
