Natal philopatry, dispersal and age of first breeding in relation to size and sex of Arctic Terns Sterna paradisaea

open access: yesIbis, Volume 168, Issue 1, Page 79-94, January 2026.
Many seabird species are in decline and population demographic models are important for revealing the causes and developing conservation strategies. Natal and breeding dispersal are key parameters of such models but can be challenging to estimate and may

The Arctic tern Sterna paradisaea: consistency and variability in spatial use at a global oceanographic scale

open access: yesMarine Ecology Progress Series, 2022
Elucidating the ecological factors underpinning migratory strategies of seabirds is necessary for understanding resilience to environmental change. Arctic terns Sterna paradisaea breed in the Northern Hemisphere and are unique for the global scale of their migration.

Nest‐site fidelity of Arctic terns Sterna paradisaea in a managed environment exposed to benign human activity

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 4, July 2025.
Human activity near seabird colonies is often equated with disturbance. Coping with human disturbance is a critical task in the management of seabird colonies where human access is an issue. Nest‐site fidelity and breeding dispersal were characterised in

Upwind or downwind: the spring arrival of Arctic Terns Sterna paradisaea at Troms, north Norway [PDF]

open access: yesRinging & Migration, 2016
This study was funded by Tromso University Museum. I also thank members of the local branch of the Norwegian Ornithological Society and members of the public who reported arrival dates to me or to www.artsobservasjoner.no. Without them this study would have been impossible.

Patterns in tern trophic diversity in a region experiencing rapid climate change

open access: yesEcosphere
Foraging plasticity provides a mechanism for long‐lived species to adapt to rapidly changing environments. When shifts in food availability occur, individual variation in plasticity can lead to an increase in within‐species trophic diversity.

Emergence, spread, and impact of high-pathogenicity avian influenza H5 in wild birds and mammals of South America and Antarctica. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol
Abstract The currently circulating high‐pathogenicity avian influenza (HPAI) virus of the subtype H5 causes variable illness and death in wild and domestic birds and mammals, as well as in humans. This virus evolved from the Goose/Guangdong lineage of the HPAI H5 virus, which emerged in commercial poultry in China in 1996, spilled over into wild birds,

Assessing regional populations of ground-nesting marine birds in the Canadian High Arctic [PDF]

open access: yesPolar Research, 2015
The Queens Channel region of Nunavut is an ecologically distinct area within the Canadian High Arctic consisting of an extensive archipelago of small, low-lying gravel islands throughout which form several localized but highly productive polynyas.
