Do Adélie penguin fledgling weights provide an index of prey availability?
to two assumed proxies of prey availability: breeding success and foraging trip duration. Concordance ... between the two proxies was apparent when considering guard stage foraging trip durations ... but this was not as strong for the crèche foraging trips later in the season. Fledgling weights which are measured at the end ... of the breeding season were more strongly correlated with later foraging trips than with earlier trips. We ...

Diet and foraging effort of Adélie penguins in relation to pack-ice conditions in the southern Ross Sea
