DOI: 10.1002/ece3.70032
Abstract: Abstract The activity of many animals follows recurrent patterns and foraging is one of the most important processes in their daily activity. Determining movement in the search for resources and understanding temporal and spatial patterns… read more here.

Linking Foraging Behaviour and Habitat Preferences During Moult Across Multiple Populations of Red‐Throated Diver
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.70733
Abstract: ABSTRACT Understanding the habitat use of individuals can facilitate methods to measure the degree to which populations will be affected by potential stressors. Such insights can be hard to garner for marine species that are… read more here.

Divorce Rates Better Predict Population‐Level Reproductive Success in Little Penguins Than Foraging Behaviour or Environmental Factors

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.70787
Abstract: ABSTRACT Understanding the relative contributions of environmental, behavioural and social factors to reproductive success is crucial for predicting population dynamics of seabirds. However, these factors are often studied in isolation, limiting our ability to evaluate… read more here.

Ontogeny of foraging behaviour in an opportunistic gull inhabiting urban marine ecosystems
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Wildlife Biology"
DOI: 10.1002/wlb3.01406
Abstract: Urbanization affects ecosystems by reducing biodiversity and displacing species from native habitats. While some suffer, others, like urban wildlife, adapt through innovative feeding and behaviours that improve their fitness in human‐altered settings. Despite research on… read more here.

Changing with the times: little penguins exhibit flexibility in foraging behaviour and low behavioural consistency

DOI: 10.1007/s00227-017-3193-y
Abstract: Individual foraging consistency is commonly seen in wild populations, even in species considered generalists and allows individuals to forage more efficiently. It may, therefore, have important consequences on ecological processes, for individuals and populations. Within… read more here.

Feeding potential and foraging behaviour of Cheilomenes sexmaculata (F.) on the cotton aphid, Aphis gossypii glover

DOI: 10.1007/s42690-020-00420-4
Abstract: Feeding potential and foraging behaviour are two important factors which determine the predator’s efficiency of managing prey. Predator-prey system of Cheilomenes sexmaculata (Fabricius) and Aphis gossypii Glover was evaluated to find out the predation efficiency.… read more here.

Reduced activity in middle-aged thick-billed murres: evidence for age related trends in fine-scale foraging behaviour

DOI: 10.1016/j.anbehav.2017.02.010
Abstract: Several biological functions, such as reproductive success, peak during middle age in long-lived vertebrates. One possible mechanism for that peak is improved foraging performance during middle age, after a period of youthful inexperience and before… read more here.

Courtship diverges with foraging behaviour in artificially selected populations
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Animal Behaviour"
DOI: 10.1016/j.anbehav.2018.07.016
Abstract: The sensory drive hypothesis proposes that natural selection on certain behaviours will alter sensory system properties and result in correlated evolution of unrelated behaviours reliant on that sensory system. Here, we used artificially selected populations… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-13277-4
Abstract: Climate-driven increases in ocean temperatures are expected to affect the metabolic requirements of marine species substantially. To mitigate the impacts of increasing temperatures in the short-term, it may be necessary for ectothermic organisms to alter… read more here.

Abstract: The early life stages represent a crucial period that can strongly influence population dynamics. We studied the development of foraging behaviour in the red-footed booby, a tropical seabird with an extensive post-fledging care period (3… read more here.
