Age, experience and reproductive performance in a long-lived bird: a hormonal perspective (2007, background): “In seabirds, the brooding period often appears constrained (Shaffer et al. 2003) as adults face a trade-off between the needs of the chick to be fed regularly and brooded, and that of the adult to spend enough time at sea to restore its body reserves and find food for the chick (Tveraa et al.”
Habitat preference, accessibility, and competition limit the global distribution of breeding Black-browed Albatrosses (2011, background): “During incubation, the time available for foraging trips is determined by the partner’s ability to fast on the nest, whereas during chick-rearing, it is the endurance of the chick that is limiting (Shaffer et al. 2003, Humphreys et al. 2006).”
Foraging efficiency and adjustment of energy expenditure in a pelagic seabird provisioning its chick (2003, background): “The only study that has compared field metabolic rates during long and short foraging trips was carried out during two different periods, incubation (long trips) and brooding (short trips) in an albatross, and found only a 10% difference in foraging costs between long and short trips ( Shaffer, Cost”
Wind field and sex constrain the flight speeds of central‐place foraging albatrosses (2009, background): “Albatrosses, like all seabirds, experience changes in the severity of the central-place constraint as the breeding season advances (Shaffer et al. 2003).”
Foraging distance affects reproductive success in Magellanic penguins (2009, background): “Foraging locations at sea, particularly distance to food, influence offspring feeding frequency (Pinaud et al. 2005), reproductive success (Inchausti et al. 2003), and adult energy balance (Shaffer et al. 2003).”
Reduced parental care, compensatory behaviour and reproductive costs of thick-billed murres equipped with data loggers (2005, unknown): “2000) or wandering albatrosses, Diomedea exulans (Shaffer et al. 2003).”
Quantifying habitat use and preferences of pelagic seabirds using individual movement data: a review (2009, background): “…as with other marine central place foragers, such as pinnipeds and penguins (Thompson et al. 2003, Boersma & Rebstock 2009), the severity of the central place constraint, and therefore the potential foraging range, varies with breeding stage (Weimerskirch et al. 1993, Shaffer et al. 2003).”
Perspectives in Ornithology: Application of tracking and data-logging technology in research and conservation of seabirds (2009, unknown): “Although short trips allow parents to maximize provisioning rates to chicks, adults typically lose body mass and expend more energy obtaining food on short trips than on long trips (Shaffer et al. 2003, Weimerskirch et al. 2003a, Ropert-Coudert et al. 2004).”
