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

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

Short-term effects of data-loggers on Cory’s shearwater (Calonectris diomedea)

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

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.
