Does Garbage in the Diet Improve Reproductive Output of Glaucous Gulls
Emily L. Weiser,Abby N. Powell +1 more
TL;DR: The Glaucous Gull (Larus hyperboreus) is an abundant predator in northern Alaska that is believed to benefit from garbage as a supplemental food source, but this supposition has never been tested as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Weak effects of geolocators on small birds: A meta-analysis controlled for phylogeny and publication bias.

TL;DR: A weak effect on apparent survival of tagged birds is found and key aspects and drivers of tagging effects are pinpointed, which encourage further use of geolocators on small bird species but the ethical aspects and scientific benefits should always be considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Life‐history tradeoffs revealed by seasonal declines in reproductive traits of Arctic‐breeding shorebirds

TL;DR: In other species of shorebirds, no seasonal patterns in breeding performance are found, suggesting that some species are not subject to selective pressure for early breeding, and seasonal declines in clutch size and incubation duration might be adaptive to hasten hatching of later nests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluating gull diets: a comparison of conventional methods and stable isotope analysis
Emily L. Weiser,Abby N. Powell +1 more
TL;DR: Conventional samples provide more species-level information than stable isotope analysis, so a combined approach would be most useful for diet analysis and assessing a predator's impact on particular prey groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Negative effects of geolocators occurred only for three of the smallest species in the authors' dataset, but were substantial when present and future studies could mitigate impacts of tags by reducing protruding parts and minimizing use of additional markers.
