Threats to seabirds: a global assessment
MP Dias, R Martin, EJ Pearmain, IJ Burfield… - Biological …, 2019 - Elsevier
We present the first objective quantitative assessment of the threats to all 359 species of
seabirds, identify the main challenges facing them, and outline priority actions for their …

On the Front Line: frontal zones as priority at‐sea conservation areas for mobile marine vertebrates
Identifying priority areas for marine vertebrate conservation is complex because species of
conservation concern are highly mobile, inhabit dynamic habitats and are difficult to monitor …

Marine no-take zone rapidly benefits endangered penguin
L Pichegru, D Grémillet, RJM Crawford… - Biology …, 2010 - royalsocietypublishing.org
No-take zones may protect populations of targeted marine species and restore the integrity
of marine ecosystems, but it is unclear whether they benefit top predators that rely on mobile …

Breaking the routine: individual Cory's shearwaters shift winter destinations between hemispheres and across ocean basins
There is growing evidence that migratory species are particularly vulnerable to rapid
environmental changes arising from human activity. Species are expected to vary in their …

Residency and spatial use by reef sharks of an isolated seamount and its implications for conservation
Although marine protected areas (MPAs) are a common conservation strategy, these areas
are often designed with little prior knowledge of the spatial behaviour of the species they are …

Local depletion by a fishery can affect seabird foraging
S Bertrand, R Joo, C Arbulu Smet… - Journal of Applied …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
Long‐term demographic studies show that seabird populations may suffer from competition
with fisheries. Understanding this process is critical for the implementation of an ecosystem …
