Linking predators to seasonality of upwelling: Using food web indicators and path analysis to infer trophic connections (2012, background): “…al., 2009; Garcia-Reyes and Largier, 2012) and a series of recent investigations have shown the importance of early season upwelling (Logerwell et al., 2003; Abraham and Sydeman, 2004, 2006; Bograd et al., 2009; Schroeder et al., 2009; Black et al., 2010, 2011), winter upwelling is often neglected.”
Waterbirds as Bioindicators of Environmental Conditions (2010, background): “First, waterbirds have been shown to track environmental variations, at short (months) and long (years) temporal scales, and at both species and community levels (e.g. Nudds 1983; Amat et al. 1985; Guinet et al. 1998; Abraham and Sydeman 2004; Almaraz and Amat 2004; Rendón et al. 2008).”
Climate change and phenological responses of two seabird species breeding in the high-Arctic (2009, background): “…forsteri, Fratercula arctica, Fulmarus glacialis, Pagodroma nivea, Ptychoramphus aleuticus, U. aalge, U. lomvia; e.g. Gjerdrum et al. 2003, Abraham & Sydeman 2004, Durant et al. 2004, Frederiksen et al. 2004, Gaston et al. 2005a, 2009, Barbraud & Weimerskirch 2006, Møller et al. 2006,…”
Rockfish response to low-frequency ocean climate change as revealed by the diet of a marine bird over multiple time scales (2004, background): “…in predator-prey rela- tionships has proven valuable for demonstrating changes in stocks of forage fish and zooplankton that are difficult and expensive to monitor directly (e.g. Croxall et al. 1988, Hatch & Sanger 1992, Montevecchi & Myers 1996, Davoren & Montevecchi 2003, Abraham & Sydeman 2004).”
Planktivorous auklet Ptychoramphus aleuticus responses to ocean climate, 2005: Unusual atmospheric blocking? (2006, background): “Cassin’s Auklet, Ptychoramphus aleuticus, feeds primarily on Euphausia pacifica and Thysanoessa spinifera and some larval fishes [Abraham and Sydeman, 2004].”
Winter and summer upwelling modes and their biological importance in the California Current Ecosystem (2011, background): “Summer upwelling was also strongly related to auklet fledgling success and may have maintained a constant and/or adequate prey base for this planktivorous seabird across its extended reproductive season, which in some years can span from March through September (Abraham & Sydeman, 2004).”
Matches and mismatches: ocean climate, prey phenology and breeding success in a zooplanktivorous seabird (2008, unknown): “The warm-spring versus cold-spring dichotomy in the persistence of Neocalanus cristatus in auklet nestling diets is consistent with direct studies of how ocean climate influences life-cycle timing in Neocalanus copepods in the northeastern Pacific (Mackas et al. 1998).”
