Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling demography and extinction risk in the endangered Balearic shearwater
TL;DR: Several demographic parameters of Balearic shearwater were estimated and used to model extinction probabilities for the species, which is an endemic seabird confined to a Mediterranean archipelago, and played a more important role than environmental stochasticity in population growth rate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seasonal changes in the diet of a critically endangered seabird and the importance of trawling discards
Joan Navarro,Maite Louzao,José Manuel Igual,Daniel Oro,Antonio Delgado,José Manuel Arcos,Meritxell Genovart,Keith A. Hobson,Manuela G. Forero +8 more
TL;DR: The study reveals the differential importance of both trawling discards and small pelagic fish species for a pelagic seabird depending on the breeding period and illustrates the importance of considering the entire breeding season when making inferences about the value of specific prey in seabirds dietary studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review on the effects of alien rodents in the Balearic (Western Mediterranean Sea) and Canary Islands (Eastern Atlantic Ocean)
Anna Traveset,Manuel Nogales,Josep Antoni Alcover,Juan D. Delgado,Marta López-Darias,D. Godoy,José Manuel Igual,Pere Bover +7 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that alien rodents played (and play) a key role in the past and present transformation of Balearic and Canarian native ecosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short-term effects of data-loggers on Cory’s shearwater (Calonectris diomedea)
José Manuel Igual,Manuela G. Forero,Giacomo Tavecchia,Jacob González-Solís,Jacob González-Solís,Alejandro Martínez-Abraín,Keith A. Hobson,Xavier Ruiz,Daniel Oro +8 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that the use of loggers is an adequate methodology to obtain information from seabirds at sea, but data should be carefully interpreted with regard to potential biases during severe environmental conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Foraging segregation between two closely related shearwaters breeding in sympatry
Joan Navarro,Manuela G. Forero,Jacob González-Solís,José Manuel Igual,Juan Bécares,Keith A. Hobson +5 more
TL;DR: The results show that spatial segregation in foraging areas can display substantial variation throughout the annual cycle and is probably a major mechanism facilitating coexistence between closely related taxa.
