Do glucocorticoids mediate the link between environmental conditions and telomere dynamics in wild vertebrates? A review
Following the discoveries of telomeres and of their implications in terms of health and
ageing, there has been a growing interest into the study of telomere dynamics in wild …

Causes and consequences of individual variability and specialization in foraging and migration strategies of seabirds
Technological advances in recent years have seen an explosion of tracking and stable
isotope studies of seabirds, often involving repeated measures from the same individuals …

No sex differences in adult telomere length across vertebrates: a meta-analysis
In many mammalian species, females live on average longer than males. In humans,
women have consistently longer telomeres than men, and this has led to speculation that …

Costs of breeding are rapidly buffered and do not affect migratory behavior in a long‐lived bird species
Life history theory states that individual fitness in one stage of life is conditioned by what
occurred in previous stages. In migratory species, reproductive effort during breeding has …

Short-term elevations in glucocorticoids do not alter telomere lengths: A systematic review and meta-analysis of non-primate vertebrate studies
Background The neuroendocrine stress response allows vertebrates to cope with stressors
via the activation of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis, which ultimately results …

Young parents produce offspring with short telomeres: A study in a long-lived bird, the Black-browed Albatross (Thalassarche melanophrys)
In wild vertebrates, young parents are less likely to successfully rear offspring relative to
older ones because of lower parental skills ('the constraint hypothesis'), lower parental …

Multiple intrinsic markers identify carry-over effects from wintering to breeding sites for three Nearctic–Neotropical migrant swallows
Carry-over effects from one stage of the annual cycle to subsequent stages can have
profound effects on individual fitness. In migratory birds, much research has been devoted to …

Assessing impacts of environmental change on Arctic-breeding seabirds requires a better
understanding of their year-round movement and foraging ecology. Here we examined the …
