Journal ArticleDOI

Habitat preference, accessibility, and competition limit the global distribution of breeding Black-browed Albatrosses

TL;DR: In this article, satellite-tracked 163 breeding Thalassarche melanophrys and eight closely related Campbell Albatrosses T. impavida from nine colonies and quantified habitat usage, and modeled population-level spatial distribution at spatiotemporal scales >50 km and 1 month.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exploitation of the marine environment by two sympatric albatrosses in the Pacific Southern Ocean

TL;DR: The marine habitat exploited by black-browed Diomedea melanophrys and grey-headed albatrosses D. chrysostoma breeding at Campbell Island, New Zealand, was studied using satellite telemetry in relation to the bathymetry and sea-surface temperature of the foraging zones as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Environmental heterogeneity and the evolution of foraging behaviour in long ranging greater albatrosses

TL;DR: The divergent styles of foraging observed in this study suggest that these closely-related and wide-ranging species could effectively co-exist by dividing the resources available to them by different modes of exploitation.
Journal ArticleDOI

CCAMLR process of risk assessment to minimise the effects of longline fishing mortality on seabirds

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the process used in the fisheries management system of the Convention for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) to minimise seabird bycatch, and the risk-assessment methodology developed to assist this.
Journal ArticleDOI

Population dynamics of Black‐browed and Grey‐headed Albatrosses Diomedea melanophrys and D. chrysostoma at Campbell Island, New Zealand, 1942–96

TL;DR: The continuous decline in Grey-headed Albatross numbers since the 1940s, before long-line fishing developed in this region, indicates that natural environmental processes contributed to the downward trend in breeding numbers.
