The role of climate and food availability on driving decadal abundance patterns of highly migratory pelagic predators in the Bay of Biscay

The role of climate and food availability on driving decadal abundance patterns of highly migratory pelagic predators in the Bay of Biscay

Within the current context of changing ecosystems, many organisms are experiencing phenological changes in the timing of migration. Here, we assessed whether the abundance patterns of two trans-equatorial migrating pelagic seabirds, the great shearwater and the sooty shearwater (Puffinus gravis and...
