TL;DR: An empirical assessment of the role of PAs as targets for colonization during recent range expansions shows that a small subset of the landscape receives a high proportion of colonizations by range-expanding species.

TL;DR: It is found that of 69 seabird species that commonly occur in the northeastern Atlantic, 25 had evidence of ingesting plastic, and that very little is known about the current prevalence of plastic ingestion and nest incorporation for many species, several of them globally threatened.

TL;DR: A positive effect of PA designation on species' persistence at trailing-edge warm range margins is found, although with a decreased magnitude at higher latitudes and altitudes, which means PAs will remain an important strategy for conservation.

TL;DR: Variation in the Altmetric Attention Score is explored, suggesting that altmetrics (or the online activity they measure), as well as complementing traditional measures of scholarly impact in ornithology such as citations, may also anticipate or even drive them.

TL;DR: The herring gull, Larus argentatus, is one widespread generalist that opportunistically forages within marine and terrestrial habitats that are increasingly altered by humans, and where generalist species, such as gulls, switch to an alternative resources that is available to them within their foraging range this may come at a cost of lower breeding success.
