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

Thrilled to say the first chapter of my PhD is out today in @ecol-evol.bsky.social! We used buccal swabbing & DNA metabarcoding to explore the diet of Fulmars & Manx shearwaters 🧬🐧 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Great to be back @bardseybirdobs.bsky.social for my second field season. Lots of chicks hatching everyday now! 🐥😍

Moving as a group imposes constraints on the energetic efficiency of #movement #ProcB royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/... #OpenAccess

Fieldwork opportunity: We're looking to hire a field assistant for the www.phenoweb.org project starting 1 April. Please repost. #phenology #fieldwork #birdringing

Excited to share a new publication, just off the press!! This time back to the terrestrial ecosystem, 📣 led by PhD student Charlie, @thecharlieroger.bsky.social , on using machine learning 🤖〽️ to identify wolf behaviours from accelerometer data #biologging, #movementecology. Congrats!! 👏

New publication by the @commonternproject.bsky.social. 'Selective disappearance based on navigational efficiency in a long-lived seabird'. In @animalecology.bsky.social. doi.org/10.1111/1365...

New research by a team inc @sosbangor.bsky.social @marineronan.bsky.social shows absence of sharks 🦈across the Western Indian Ocean, except Mozambique & Chagos Archipelago

Funded PhD! Interested in nightjars? Interested in radio tracking and GPS tracking? We are looking for a PhD student to study the movement and cognitive ecology of this enigmatic crepuscular species with me and @dmitrykishkinev.bsky.social Link below - message or email for info. 3 days to apply!

New paper in @currentbiology.bsky.social on seabird wind use and foraging decisions! doi.org/10.1016/j.cu... We estimated wind selectivity in Manx shearwaters and explored how birds handle the trade-off between being wind efficient and targeting known foraging areas @sosbangor.bsky.social

3-year Postdoc Position Join our team @mpi-animalbehav.bsky.social and investigate the dynamics of seasonal songbird migration using biologging technologies See details here: bit.ly/3ZojW38 Please get in touch if interested & share with anyone else who might be!

My first PhD chapter just got published in @jexpbiol.bsky.social ! We proposed a new framework to estimate foraging energetics ⚡ of Adélie 🐧 using TDRs. Our framework provided results similar to accelerometers and could likely be applicable on other diving predators 🐋🦈 doi.org/10.1242/jeb....

New paper alert! Really excited to see this work from a postdoc with Steve Votier @heriotwattuni.bsky.social published in Ecology & Evolution! In it, we use existing bio-logging data to study competition and facilitation in foraging gannets. Link to paper here: dx.doi.org/10.1002/ece3...

How do wandering albatrosses deal with broad-scale climatic variation? Pretty well, it seems! Our new Ecology & Evolution paper uses 11 years of GPS tracking to show how plastic behaviour helps albatrosses to buffer environmental effects on their breeding success: dx.doi.org/10.1002/ece3...

New PhD project, based at ZSL, on the migration strategies of Trindade petrels from Round Island, Mauritius! Fab opportunity to work on an amazing long-term ecological dataset, supervised by Malc Nicol, Emily Sheppard and Ken Norris 🔗⬇️ www.findaphd.com/phds/project... #seabirds 🪶

!PhD opportunity! We are recruiting a student to use biotelemetry and modelling to understand bycatch in Europe's most endangered seabird, the Balearic shearwater. If you are interested come to our online Q&A session on 12th Dec. See advert below!
