Diet of Yellow-legged Gull (Larus michahellis) chicks along the Spanish Western Mediterranean coast: the relevance of refuse dumps (2008, background): “Consequently, these gulls feed their offspring mainly with fish (see Duhem et al. 2005), which can be obtained from the fisheries operating in the area (Arcos et al. 2001) or even from sub-surface predators (Oro 1995).”
Significance of fisheries discards for a threatened Mediterranean seabird, the Balearic shearwater Puffinus mauretanicus (2002, background): “…behaviour differed considerably from that of gulls and terns attending these vessels (Oro & Ruiz 1997, Arcos 2001), thus reducing direct competition (e.g. Furness et al. 1992, Garthe & Hüppop 1998b, Arcos et al. 2001), although the shearwaters were occasionally subject to kleptoparasitic chases.”
Characterisation of the discards generated by bottom trawling in the northwestern Mediterranean (2004, background): “have a significant effect not only in supporting bird populations, but also in their breeding performance in the western Mediterranean (Arcos et al., 2001; Oro and Ruiz, 1997).”
Age and sexual differences in the exploitation of two anthropogenic food resources for an opportunistic seabird (2010, background): “Mañosa et al. (2004) found that females spent more time than males outside of the colony, suggesting that foraging at the rice Welds might have the advantage of reducing competition (Arcos et al. 2001) but that encounter rates with the crayWsh would be rather low (authors’ personal observations).”
