Estimating predation on breeding European storm‐petrels (Hydrobates pelagicus) by yellow‐legged gulls (Larus michahellis) (2005, background): “Survival values seemed normal for a species of the Hydrobatidae family (Warham, 1990; Russell, 1999; Hamer, Schreiber & Burger, 2002; Weimerskirch, 2002), especially as survival was estimated in cave 1, where predation rates by gulls were highest.”
Seabird population changes following mammal eradications on islands (2018, background): “The results also emphasize that seabirds are perhaps less philopatric to their natal sites than is widely accepted (Weimerskirch, 2002; Brooke, 2004; Friesen, 2015).”
Inter-population variation in demographic parameters: a neglected subject? (2005, background): “Furthermore, within Europe northern populations they seem to show higher survival than more southerly ones (Weimerskirch 2002).”
Contrasting foraging tactics by northern gannets (Sula bassana) breeding in different oceanographic domains with different prey fields (2007, unknown): “Wnd and then deliver food to chicks (Weimerskirch 2002).”
Trends in carbon flux to seabirds in the Peruvian upwelling system: effects of wind and fisheries on population regulation (2004, background): “Peruvian seabirds have high potential fecundity relative to most seabirds and have likely been selected to be able to take advantage of periods of high prey abundance thus compensating for breeding failure and elevated adult mortality during years of low prey abundance (Weimerskirch, 2001).”
Comparison of five modelling techniques to predict the spatial distribution and abundance of seabirds (2012, background): “The decline of many seabird species is directly linked to high mortality at sea due to fisheries bycatch (Croxall and Rothery, 1991; Oro et al., 2004; Weimerskirch, 2002).”
Inter-colony movements, at-sea behaviour and foraging in an immature seabird: results from GPS-PPT tracking, radio-tracking and stable isotope analysis (2011, background): “Seabirds tend to live for a long time and have prolonged periods of immaturity (Weimerskirch 2002).”
Ultimate and proximate factors affecting the breeding performance of a marine top-predator (2002, background): “The two populations differ also in life history traits, with higher adult survival and lower fecundity at South Georgia population (Weimerskirch 2001).”
Foraging strategy of a tropical seabird, the red- footed booby, in a dynamic marine environment (2005, background): “Since small clutch size is often related to pelagic habits in seabirds (Lack 1968, Weimerskirch 2001), the strictly 1 egg clutch of RFBs, compared to the other species with 1 to 4 eggs per clutch, reinforces the suggestion of pelagic habits of this species; however, no study has yet determined the…”
