A photographic approach to monitor spatial dynamics and population trends of Arctic Tern colonies in two touristic bird watching spots in the Westfjords, Iceland

Avocetta
This study examines the population dynamics and spatial distribution of Arctic Terns in two tourist sites in Iceland's Westfjords: Vigur Island and Súðavík. In 2023, counts revealed 458 terns in Súðavík and 991 in Vigur. We propose a monitoring approach

A half century of monitoring reveals contrasting survival responses of Icelandic seabirds to climate and fisheries pressures

Ibis, Volume 168, Issue 3, Page 950-971, July 2026.
Seabirds serve as key indicators of marine environmental changes, with adult survival being a critical parameter for assessing population health. Iceland hosts some of the largest seabird populations in the North Atlantic, making it a valuable location for studying long‐term trends in seabird demographics.

The comparative breeding ecology of sympatric common and arctic terns in N.E. England [PDF]

, 1999
The life-history traits of two sympatric seabird species, the Common Sterna hirundo and Arctic Tern S. paradisaea, and the flexibility of these traits in relation to short and longer term changes in environmental conditions were measured at Coquet Island,

Hypotheses and tracking results about the longest migration: The case of the arctic tern

Ecology and Evolution, 2019
The arctic tern Sterna paradisaea completes the longest known annual return migration on Earth, traveling between breeding sites in the northern arctic and temperate regions and survival/molt areas in the Antarctic pack‐ice zone.

How a Winner Can Also Be a Loser? At‐Sea Vulnerability of a Critically Endangered Endemic Seabird to Climate Change

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The last decades have been marked by a global decline of many migratory species, and predictions are even more alarming when climate change is considered. We investigated the migration patterns and marine habitat selection processes of a critically endangered endemic seabird of the tropical western Indian Ocean, and projected future ...

Image_7_Foraging Behaviours of Breeding Arctic Terns Sterna paradisaea and the Impact of Local Weather and Fisheries.JPEG

, 2022
During the breeding season, seabirds are central place foragers and in order to successfully rear chicks they must adjust their foraging behaviours to compensate for extrinsic factors.
