Travelling through a warming world: climate change and migratory species.

TL;DR: This multi- taxon review shows that the characteristics of species that undertake such movements appear to make them particularly vulnerable to detrimental impacts of climate change, and conservation strategies for migrants will require substantial shifts in site designation policies, flexibility of management strategies and the integration of forward planning.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fishery discards and bycatch: solutions for an ecosystem approach to fisheries management?

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the current state-of-the-art in discards research, with particular emphasis on the needs and challenges associated with the implementation of the Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries Management (EAFM) in European waters.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intraspecific dietary variation in the short-beaked common dolphin Delphinus delphis in the Bay of Biscay: importance of fat fish

TL;DR: The diet of the short-beaked common dolphin Delphinus delphinus in the Bay of Biscay was assessed to examine intraspecific dietary variation and explore its effects on calculated daily food intake.
Journal ArticleDOI

Linking sandeel consumption and the likelihood of starvation in harbour porpoises in the Scottish North Sea: could climate change mean more starving porpoises?

TL;DR: It is suggested that the negative effects of climate change on sandeel availability may have serious negative effects on harbour porpoise populations in the North Sea by increasing the likelihood of starvation in spring.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stable isotope analysis in two sympatric populations of bottlenose dolphins Tursiops truncatus : evidence of resource partitioning?

TL;DR: Bottlenose dolphins were divided into two putative populations based on previous genetic studies, and values of δ13C and δ15N differed significantly between these two groups, confirming the existence of population structuring.
