Antarctic petrels ‘on the ice rocks’: wintering strategy of an Antarctic seabird by K. Delord, A. Kato, A. Tarroux, F. Orgeret, C. Cotté, Y. Ropert-Coudert, Y. Cherel, S. Descamps

“…There is a paucity of information on the foraging ecology, especially individual use of sea-ice features and icebergs, over the non-breeding season in many seabird species. Using geolocators and stable isotopes, we defined the movements, distribution and diet of adult Antarctic petrels Thalassoica antarctica from the largest known breeding colony, the inland Svarthamaren, Antarctica. …”
