GPS tracking data reveal the annual spatiotemporal movement patterns of Bridled Terns

Avian Research, 2022
Understanding the spatiotemporal patterns of animal movement is a central theme in the growing field of movement ecology. The Bridled Tern (Onychoprion anaethetus) is widely distributed across tropical and subtropical latitudes; however, knowledge of its
