Energetic tidal-stream environments are characterized by frequent, variable, yet broadly
predictable currents containing ephemeral flow structures that change across multiple spatio …

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 …

Eleven satellite tags were deployed on 9 killer whales at the Prince Edwards Islands in the
Southern Ocean. State-space switching models were used to generate position estimates …

Understanding the foraging ecology of animals gives insights into their trophic relationships
and habitat use. We used stable isotope analysis to understand the foraging ecology of a …

We examined the movement characteristics and seasonality of feeding behaviour for an
endemic Australian otariid, the Australian sea lion Neophoca cinerea. By combining tracking …

Seasonal and annual climate variations are linked to fluctuations in the abundance and
distribution of resources, posing a significant challenge to animals that need to adjust their …

Quantification of the physical and biological environmental factors that influence the spatial
distribution of higher trophic species is central to inform management and develop …

The southern coastline of Australia forms part of the worlds' only northern boundary current
system. The Bonney Upwelling occurs every austral summer along the south-eastern South …

Investigating movement patterns of marine migratory species is critical to understand habitat
use and population structure, and help inform conservation and management planning …

Killer whales are apex predators with temporally and spatially varying distributions
throughout the world's oceans. Their ecology and behaviour are poorly understood in most …
