Southern Ocean ecosystems are under pressure from resource exploitation and climate
change,. Mitigation requires the identification and protection of Areas of Ecological …

Satellite telemetry data are a key source of animal distribution information for marine
ecosystem management and conservation activities. We used two decades of telemetry data …

Antarctic krill is a key species of important Southern Ocean food webs, yet how changes in
ocean temperature and primary production may impact their habitat quality remains poorly …

Aim The distribution of marine predators is driven by the distribution and abundance of their
prey; areas preferred by multiple marine predator species should therefore indicate areas of …

In animal ecology, a question of key interest for aquatic species is how changes in
movement behavior are related in the horizontal and vertical dimensions when individuals …

The open ocean is a highly variable environment where marine top predators are thought to
require optimized foraging strategies to locate and capture prey. Mesoscale and sub …

Seabirds and marine mammals are generally not well represented in marine ecosystem
models, despite the important roles that these groups play in determining ecosystem …

Air-breathing marine animals, such as seals and seabirds, undertake a special form of
central-place foraging as they must obtain their food at depth yet return to the surface to …

Abstract In the Southern Ocean, the impact of environmental changes and increasing human
encroachment is causing declines in several populations of seabirds. Amsterdam island …

Long‐distance migration presents complex conservation challenges, and migratory species
often experience shortfalls in conservation due to the difficulty of identifying important …
