Central-place foraging in an Arctic seabird provides evidence for Storer-Ashmole's halo
KH Elliott, KJ Woo, AJ Gaston, S Benvenuti… - The Auk, 2009 - academic.oup.com

Cost of living dictates what whales, dolphins and porpoises eat: the importance of prey quality on predator foraging strategies
Understanding the mechanisms that drive prey selection is a major challenge in foraging
ecology. Most studies of foraging strategies have focused on behavioural costs, and have …

Additive effects of climate and fisheries drive ongoing declines in multiple albatross species
Environmental and anthropogenic factors often drive population declines in top predators,
but how their influences may combine remains unclear. Albatrosses are particularly …
