Relative influence of fisheries and climate on the demography of four albatross species (2010, background): “This suggests that mitigation measures have become efficient for albatrosses in the CCAMLR convention area, especially night setting (Weimerskirch et al., 2000).”
Biotelemetry and biologging in endangered species research and animal conservation: relevance to regional, national, and IUCN Red List threat assessments (2008, background): “Such broad movements of seabirds have not previously been documented and will assist assessments of risk, such as those related to seabird by-catch by long-line fisheries (e.g. Weimerskirch et al. 2000).”
Lifetime foraging patterns of the wandering albatross: Life on the move! (2014, methodology): “The wing length of juveniles when they fledge is longer than that of adults (Weimerskirch et al., 2000a), which is probably as an adaptation to these calmer conditions, giving them better flight abilities in the calmer sub-tropical waters (Shaffer et al., 2001).”
Seabird mortality on factory trawlers in the Falkland Islands and beyond (2006, background): “(Williams and Capdeville, 1996; Weimerskirch et al., 2000; SCCCAMLR, 2001, 2002).”
Global seabird bycatch in longline fisheries (2011, background): “More recently, the threat posed by trawl fisheries (whereby seabirds can become entangled in nets during shooting and hauling, or are killed by collision with warp cable as they forage behind the vessel) has also become apparent (Bartle 1991, Weimerskirch et al. 2000, Sullivan et al. 2006).”
SEABIRD MORTALITY IN THE PATAGONIAN TOOTHFISH LONGLINE FISHERY AROUND CROZET AND KERGUELEN ISLANDS, 2001-2003 (2005, background): “As mentioned in other studies (Gales et al., 1998; Weimerskirch et al., 2000), moon brightness had no effect on the number of white-chinned petrels caught, whereas it signifi cantly affected the number of grey petrels killed (Moreno et al., 1996; Barnes et al., 1997; Brothers et al., 1999a).”
Combined effects of fisheries and climate on a migratory long-lived marine predator (2007, methodology): “Moreover, this result is consistent with the at-sea observations of black-browed albatrosses attending trawlers (Weimerskirch et al. 2000), scavenging on offal and discards discharged by trawlers (Thompson 1992), and the significant amount of offal remains found in the stomachs of black browed…”
SUMMER DISTRIBUTION AND MIGRATION OF NONBREEDING ALBATROSSES: INDIVIDUAL CONSISTENCIES AND IMPLICATIONS FOR CONSERVATION (2005, background): “A small proportion might be vulnerable as they travel through the Indian Ocean, although on the Kerguelen Shelf at least, winter fishing effort by licensed vessels is low to avoid bad sea conditions (Weimerskirch et al. 2000).”
Impacts of fisheries on seabird communities (2003, background): “They are complicated by the fact that many factors influence seabird bycatch rate but these factors are not well known (Brothers et al., 1999; Weimerskirch et al., 2000), and the data are not amenable to simple statistical analysis.”
