Spatial interaction between seabirds and prey: review and synthesis (2009, background): “In Prince William Sound, Alaska, Ainley et al. (2003) found that the prevalence of fish schools close to the surface was inversely related to the colony size of black-legged kittiwakes Rissa tridactyla.”
Regional patterns of kittiwake Rissa tridactyla breeding success are related to variability in sandeel recruitment (2005, unknown): “In a rare study using direct measures of prey availability, Ainley et al. (2003) also found that the density of fish shoals decreased with colony size for black-legged kittiwakes in Alaska, indicating an effect of the birds on the dynamics of their prey.”
GEOGRAPHIC STRUCTURE OF ADÉLIE PENGUIN POPULATIONS: OVERLAP IN COLONY-SPECIFIC FORAGING AREAS (2004, background): “In their study of kittiwakes, Ainley et al. (2003b) found that individuals from a small colony did not feed within the foraging area of an adjacent larger colony.”
Trophic cascades in the western Ross Sea, Antarctica: revisited (2015, background): “…complicated by the fact that many Ross Sea mesopredators prey on both crystal krill Euphausia crystallorophias, a major grazer of phytoplankton, and silverfish Pleuragramma antarcticum, a major predator of crystal krill (Eastman 1985, Ainley et al. 2003a, Ainley 2007, Pinkerton et al. 2013).”
Diving seabirds share foraging space and time within and among species (2010, background): “Yet, most studies have found incomplete segregation of the foraging areas used (e.g., Brothers et al. 1998, Huin 2002, Lynnes et al. 2002, Ainley et al. 2003, Grémillet et al. 2004, Kokubun et al. 2010 and references therein; but see for complete segregation: Wanless and Harris 1993, and Imperial…”
Are seabirds foraging for unpredictable resources (2007, background): “…stages, and data available on foraging for seabirds, see Table A1. uctive ST/LTc Data availabled Foraging zone Referencese No R, T, F Shelf Ainley et al.

Contrasting foraging tactics by northern gannets (Sula bassana) breeding in different oceanographic domains with different prey fields (2007, unknown): “…20-40 40-60 60-80 80-100 100-120 120-140 140-160 160-180 180-200 200-220 Distance to colony (km) p er ce n ta g e o f al l d iv es Funk Bonaventure ony size and more especially with the ecological features within colony foraging areas (see also Ainley et al. 1995, 2003).”
An energetic correlate between colony size and foraging effort in seabirds, an example of the Adélie penguinPygoscelis adeliae (2009, background): “An inverse correlation is often evident between colony size and reproductive success, numbers of conspecifics at other colonies with overlapping foraging ranges, and diet quality (Furness and Birkhead 1984, Hunt et al. 1986, Lewis et al. 2001, Forero et al. 2002, Ainley et al. 2003a, 2004, Hipfner”
The importance of oceanographic fronts to marine birds and mammals of the southern oceans (2009, background): “In a study of kittiwakes Rissa tridactyla, it was found that they foragedmore in areas suitable for the existence of prey than in areas where prey schools were actually visible (Ainley et al., 2003; Ford et al., 2007).”
Quantifying habitat use and preferences of pelagic seabirds using individual movement data: a review (2009, background): “An analogous situation arises in seabirds foraging from adjacent colonies (e.g. Huin 2002, Ainley et al. 2003, Grémillet et al. 2004).”
Central-Place Foraging in an Arctic Seabird Provides Evidence for Storer-Ashmole's Halo (2009, background): “…et al. 2000, Ballance et al. 2009); (3) reduced size of neighboring colonies (Furness and Birkhead 1984; Ainley et al. 1995, 2004; Lewis et al. 2001; Forero et al. 2002; Ford et al. 2007); and (4) increased trip duration (Lewis et al. 2001; Ainley et al. 2003, 2004; Davoren and Montevecchi 2003).”
Stable isotopes reveal trophic segregation by sex and age in the southern giant petrel in two different food webs (2005, background): “…could be influenced by the differential distribution of marine resources, including prey quality and availability (Croxall & Lishman 1987, Velando & Freire 1999), but also by the level of intraspecific competition determined by colony and population size (Ainley et al. 2003, Forero et al. 2003).”
Habitat preference, accessibility, and competition limit the global distribution of breeding Black-browed Albatrosses (2011, background): “Unlike many central-place foragers, seabirds do not defend foraging territories, yet partial spatial segregation along colonial lines has been observed in some species (Ainley et al. 2003, 2004, Gremillet et al. 2004).”
