2. Quantifying habitat use in satellite-tracked pelagic seabirds: application of kernel estimation to albatross locations

   Abstract:  We develop a new approach to quantifying habitat use within the foraging ranges of satellite-tracked seabirds. We applied kernel estimation techniques to 167 days (3738 locations) of data from black-browed and grey-headed albatrosses (Diomedea melanophris and D. chrysostoma) during the

3. Foraging location and range of white-chinned petrels Procellaria aequinoctialis breeding in the South Atlantic

   Abstract:  The foraging range and principal feeding areas of White-chinned Petrels breeding at South Georgia were determined using satellite telemetry. Foraging trips during incubation lasted 12-15 days and covered 3,000-8,000 km and 2-11 days and 1,100-5,900 km during chick-rearing. Adults covered

6. Effect of a shore-based sampling program on Notothenia coriiceps populations

   Abstract:  The effect of an intensive sampling programme on an inshore population of Notothenia coriiceps was studied at Potter Cove, South Shetland Islands, by comparing catch data taken in successive summers of 1992/93 to 1994/95 at one specific zone (site 1) with those taken in the same last

7. Foraging ecology of grey-headed mollymawks at Marion Island in relation to longline fishing activity

   Abstract:  Grey-headed mollymawks Thalassarche chrysostoma are killed by longline fishing operations in the southern Indian Ocean. We studied the foraging ecology of breeding grey-headed mollymawks at Marion Island, by tracking their foraging trips and sampling their diets. During the incubation

8. Factors affecting the number and mortality of seabirds attending trawlers and longliners in the Kerguelen area

   Abstract:  The factors affecting the number and the mortality of seabirds attending long-liners and trawlers fishing in the Kerguelen area were studied during four successive seasons (1994-1997), based on observations carried out onboard by dedicated observers. Twenty-four species of seabirds were

10. Preliminary analysis of seabird by-catch using CCAMLR observer data

    Abstract:  We used data collected by CCAMLR International Scientific Observers in 1997 and 1998 to examine potential relationships between seabird incidental mortality rates on longline vessels fishing for Dissostichus eleginoides and various factors, including the nature and use of mitigating
