How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2081-2102, October 2026.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Hybridization in Terns: A Review

Marine Ornithology
Hybridization—the interbreeding of different species—is a relatively common phenomenon in birds, but its study is biased towards certain taxa. In this review, we focus on a bird group that has received less attention: terns (Laridae, Sterninae). Based on an extensive literature search, we found records for 16 hybrids between tern species, with varying ...

Migration of black terns Chlidonias niger and common terns Sterna hirundo between south Sweden and the Atlantic coast of Africa

Journal of Avian Biology
Light‐level geolocators were used to record the annual migration cycles of black terns Chlidonias niger (9 individuals, 11 journeys) and common terns Sterna hirundo (7 individuals, 11 journeys) breeding in southernmost Sweden.

Effects of the 1997-1998 El Niño and 1998-1999 La Niña events on breeding waterbirds and sea lions in the Upper Gulf of California, México [PDF]

Geofísica Internacional, 2003
During 1998 and 1999 I monitored waterbirds nesting on Isla San Jorge, at La Purinera and on Isla Montague, in the northern Gulf of California, as well as sea lions on Isla San Jorge. During El Niño the brown boobies on San Jorge ceased breeding and left

Variable spatial management implications based on different seabird distribution and diversity metrics

Ecological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 7, October 2026.
Abstract As resource managers strive to balance marine ecosystem health and services with diverse ocean uses, the spatial and temporal dynamics of species distributions—and their overlap with both static and dynamic human activities—should be carefully considered.

Influenza A virus on oceanic islands: host and viral diversity in seabirds in the Western Indian Ocean.

PLoS Pathogens, 2015
Ducks and seabirds are natural hosts for influenza A viruses (IAV). On oceanic islands, the ecology of IAV could be affected by the relative diversity, abundance and density of seabirds and ducks. Seabirds are the most abundant and widespread avifauna in

Breeding on a Tropical Island Proves More Difficult Than Expected: The Ongoing Breeding Failure of Laysan Albatross on Clarion Island

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study establishes essential baseline data on the current status, colony dynamics, and key threats facing the Laysan Albatrosses on Clarion Island and offers critical insights to guide future conservation and management efforts. ABSTRACT In the 1980s, the Laysan Albatross (Phoebastria immutabilis) expanded its breeding range into the eastern ...
