[PDF][PDF] A review of the food of albatrosses
The diets of nine species of albatrosses are dominated by cephalopods, fish and, to a lesser
extent, crustaceans, while carrion and gelatinous zooplankton are minor components …

Remote-sensing systems and seabirds: their use, abuse and potential for measuring marine environmental variables
We examined how seabirds might be used to study marine environmental variables, which
necessitates knowing location and the value of the variable to be studied. Five systems can …
