New Year, new job. Come and join the @ukceh.bsky.social team on the Isle of May ceh.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/en-GB/CEH_Ca...

New large-scale study based on SEAPOP data shows that #ocean #warming threatens #seabirds in the North Atlantic @ninanatureresearch.bsky.social

My first PhD paper is now out! We calculate overlap intensity between African penguins and the local purse seine fishery 🐧🐟 Check it out in @jappliedecology.bsky.social besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Needing to model impacts on seabird populations in Northwest Europe? Not sure where to find useful values for demographic variables? Look no further! In this new paper, we provide model-derived values for age-specific survival of 25 species. besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

🔍 Postdoc opportunity! We’re looking for one (or two) postdoctoral researchers to join our Arctic Ecology team to work on: 🛰️ Muskox movement ecology 🌍 Ecosystem & carbon modelling 📄 Details in the attached flyer. #Postdoc #ArcticEcology #MovementEcology #CarbonModelling #WildlifeResearch

Importantly, birds that remained with the same partner tended to lay eggs earlier, which is strongly tied to how many chicks they rear 🐣. See our news story: ceh.ac.uk/news-and-med... Read the full paper: sciencedirect.com/science/arti... #seabirds #ClimateChange 🧪

How are movement patterns affected by energy expenditure & gain, and what does it mean for fitness? This @iapetusdtp.bsky.social PhD opportunity will use data on movement & demography of kittiwakes & spatio-temporal food abundance across their range iapetus.ac.uk/studentships... #ornithology

Just launched, spmapper is a new marine spatial planning tool from UKCEH! By estimating where and how much seabirds eat, spmapper can help with siting new offshore windfarms and protection areas. nerc-ceh.github.io/spmapper-pkg...

🚨 New #seabirds paper 🚨 Following a workshop at the International Seabird Group Conference 2024 & led by @seabirdmortenf.bsky.social, we review opportunities & challenges for new technologies in seabird monitoring 🎥💻🐣 Link below! ⬇️ #ornithology doi.org/10.1093/ices...

Very happy to share that our paper presenting a framework for optimal movement decisions in complex landscapes has just been published in TREE @stephharris.bsky.social @jacobnabe.bsky.social tinyurl.com/d45s36y5

Animal energetics, movement, and coexistence are inextricably linked. What insights emerge when we consider these processes together? In our new paper, we present a conceptual framework that integrates these domains, outlines their connections, and highlights the value of their joint study.

Do you use geolocators to estimate foraging time, behaviour, or energetics in diving seabirds? See our new paper for insights from a study of Common Guillemots. doi.org/10.61350/sbj... @theseabirdgroup.bsky.social
