Stress hormones link food availability and population processes in seabirds (2007, background): “In others, parents buffer their young from variations in food availability by increasing their effort in foraging during food shortages (Shea & Ricklefs 1995, 1996, Zador & Piatt 1999, Kitaysky et al. 2000, 2001b).”
Corticosterone facilitates begging and affects resource allocation in the black-legged kittiwake (2001, background): “Kitaysky et al. (2000) have shown that a decrease in food abundance causes an increase in energy expenditures of parent kittiwakes, whereas growth rates of their chicks are not affected.”
Ocean climate, euphausiids and auklet nesting: inter-annual trends and variation in phenology, diet and growth of a planktivorous seabird, Ptychoramphus aleuticus (2004, background): “Therefore, some seabird species may be capable of behavioral changes that effectively buffer certain aspects of their breeding biology (Monaghan et al. 1996, Kitaysky et al. 2000).”
Determinants of reproductive costs in the long-lived Black-legged Kittiwake: A multiyear experiment (2004, background): “Although field metabolic rate may vary with local conditions, such as temperature, wind speed (Montevecchi et al. 1992), and food availability (Kitaysky et al. 2000, Jodice et al. 2002), there also must be ceilings to energy expenditure.”
Effects of climate change and fisheries bycatch on Southern Ocean seabirds : a review (2012, unknown): “…climate change and variability have affected a wide range of species (Walther et al. 2002, Parmesan & Yohe 2003, Root et al. 2003, Parmesan 2006), including seabirds (e.g. Montevecchi & Myers 1997, Kitaysky & Golu - bova 2000, Kitaysky et al. 2000, Sydeman et al. 2001, Frederiksen et al. 2004).”
Foraging distance affects reproductive success in Magellanic penguins (2009, background): “Climate fluctuations may affect species differently, depending on prey and foraging strategies (Kitaysky et al. 2000).”
Food availability and population processes: severity of nutritional stress during reproduction predicts survival of long‐lived seabirds (2010, background): “For example, we found that foraging conditions of surface-foraging kittiwakes, and pursuit-diving auklets and murres breeding at the same colonies often varied in opposite ways – what was a ‘good’ season for one species was a ‘bad’ season for another and vice versa (Kitaysky et al. 2000; Benowitz-Fr”
Central-Place Foraging in an Arctic Seabird Provides Evidence for Storer-Ashmole's Halo (2009, background): “…et al. 2002, Ainley et al. 2004, Hipfner et al. 2006); (2) reduced adult body condition (Gaston and Hipfner 2006) or increased adult metabolic rate (Kitaysky et al. 2000, Ballance et al. 2009); (3) reduced size of neighboring colonies (Furness and Birkhead 1984; Ainley et al. 1995, 2004; Lewis et…”
Local depletion by a fishery can affect seabird foraging (2012, background): “Seabirds may, over certain ranges in prey availability, develop compensatory strategies (e.g. Kitaysky et al. 2000) and mitigate relationships between prey availability and reproductive success through variation in foraging effort (Piatt et al. 2007).”
Oceanographic habitats of two sympatric North Pacific albatrosses during the breeding season (2002, background): “…influence the range and duration of foraging trips throughout the breeding season, and how albatross foraging behavior responds to interannual variability in ocean productivity and prey availability (e.g. Veit & Prince 1997, Weimerskirch & Cherel 1998, Duriez et al. 2000, Kitaysky et al. 2000).”
CONSPECIFIC FOOD COMPETITION EXPLAINS VARIABILITY IN COLONY SIZE: A TEST IN MAGELLANIC PENGUINS (2002, background): “…parents could adopt two different strategies: to expand their foraging so that their preferred prey could still be obtained (Monaghan et al. 1994, Kitaysky et al. 2000), or to forage closer to the colonies and thus increase provisioning rates to the chicks with prey of lower quality, to cover…”
Consequences of foraging trip duration on provisioning behaviour and fledging condition of common murres Uria aalgae (2003, background): “The duration of a foraging trip could depend on the distance between major aggregations of prey and breeding colonies (Kitaysky et al. 2000, Davoren 2001).”
