Reactions of ground-nesting marine birds to human disturbance in the Canadian Arctic

Arctic Science, 2016
I studied the reactions of five ground-nesting marine bird species (Arctic tern (Sterna paradisaea), Sabine’s gull (Xema sabini), common eider (Somateria mollissima), long-tailed duck (Clangula hyemalis), and Ross’ gull (Rhodostethia rosea)) breeding in ...

Sterna paradisaea

, 2018
Sterna paradisaea (MGT): breeds from May to July in septentrional zones of the Holarctic and flies along the Brazilian coast when migrating to Antarctica to overwinter. When migrating south, the North American population follows the Gulf Stream as far as Europe and then flies south along the African coast, crossing once again the Atlantic at the level ...

Do Arctic waders use adaptive wind drift? [PDF]

, 2004
We analysed five data sets of flight directions of migrating arctic waders in relation to winds, recorded by tracking radar and optical range finder, in order to find out if these birds compensate for wind drift, or allow themselves to be drifted by ...

Diversity and abundance of water birds in a subarctic lake during three decades

Fauna Norvegica, 2013
The numbers of divers, ducks, gulls, terns and waders in the 15 km2 oligotrophic lake Takvatn, North Norway were estimated six times during 1983-2012. Systematic mapping surveys were done by boat within the first week after ice-break in June.

Migratory Birds Advance Spring Arrival and Egg-Laying in the Arctic, Mostly by Travelling Faster. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol
A warming climate is affecting the phenology of life on earth, including when birds migrate and start breeding. We show that earlier arrival is a general pattern also for birds travelling to the Arctic region, arriving earlier when snow melts early as well as with time.

Postbreeding dispersal and staging of Common and Arctic Terns throughout the western North Atlantic

Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2017
In the western North Atlantic, Common (Sterna hirundo) and Arctic (S. paradisaea) Terns are sympatric at breeding colonies but show divergent migration strategies to coastal areas of South America and pelagic regions of the Antarctic, respectively ...

Blood Hemoglobin Content and Metabolic Performance of Arctic Tern Chicks Sterna paradisaea

Journal of Avian Biology, 1996
This study was designed to determine whether the development of an increased aerobic capacity (increased potential for oxygen uptake) during the initial growth stages of hatchlings is associated with an increase in blood hemoglobin content. We measured the resting (at thermoneutrality) and maximum (cold induced)b oxygen uptake of Arctic Tern chicks ...
