Turbidity (via its impact on intake rates in visual foragers) may also impact sandeel size. https://www.int-res.com/abstracts/meps/prepress/meps1501030 Oct 2025 09:49 +0000at://did:plc:vvayzd5bukb2pecqca3tazce/app.bsky.feed.post/3m4fopkldrs2rhttps://bsky.app/profile/ruedinager.bsky.social/post/3lwgcuzfwd22kMore intense human-caused heat extremes have reduced terrestrial bird abundance - in particular in the tropics - more than other human pressures #ornithology https://doi.org/10.1038/s41559-025-02811-715 Aug 2025 07:19 +0000at://did:plc:vvayzd5bukb2pecqca3tazce/app.bsky.feed.post/3lwgcuzfwd22khttps://bsky.app/profile/ruedinager.bsky.social/post/3lqr2x6tdi22j#ornithology #seabirds [contains quote post or other embedded content]04 Jun 2025 05:25 +0000at://did:plc:vvayzd5bukb2pecqca3tazce/app.bsky.feed.post/3lqr2x6tdi22jhttps://bsky.app/profile/ruedinager.bsky.social/post/3li2f3oa7nk2eManx Shearwaters show flexible migration visiting lower latitudes during non-breeding in El Niño years and experience cascading carry over effects on subsequent breeding behaviour #ornithology https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rspb.2024.194413 Feb 2025 09:34 +0000at://did:plc:vvayzd5bukb2pecqca3tazce/app.bsky.feed.post/3li2f3oa7nk2ehttps://bsky.app/profile/ruedinager.bsky.social/post/3lhg5strw6s2eHad great fun to write this paper with Pralle Kriengwatana, @amsouth.bsky.social, Marin Ullrich & emilydoolittle.bsky.social on how animals respond to music & what needs to be reported in future to better understand their responses #AnimalWelfare @uofgsbohvm.bsky.social https://doi.org/10.1016/j.anbehav.2025.12307405 Feb 2025 08:30 +0000at://did:plc:vvayzd5bukb2pecqca3tazce/app.bsky.feed.post/3lhg5strw6s2ehttps://bsky.app/profile/ruedinager.bsky.social/post/3ldkun6pnuc2jConsidering infrared radiation may be necessary for a better understanding of animals' colouration diversity and possible responses to thermal challenge. https://bsky.app/profile/biorxiv-ecology.bsky.social/post/3ldkqg7ll3i2v [contains quote post or other embedded content]18 Dec 2024 07:49 +0000at://did:plc:vvayzd5bukb2pecqca3tazce/app.bsky.feed.post/3ldkun6pnuc2jhttps://bsky.app/profile/ruedinager.bsky.social/post/3ld6ldz4uv22pCommon Guillemots suffered catastrophic losses following a marine heat wave in 2015 and 2016, and may have permanently altered northern Pacific ecosystem https://www.science.org/content/article/blob-heat-wave-killed-millions-seabirds-and-they-haven-t-bounced-back #ornithology #seabirds13 Dec 2024 10:31 +0000at://did:plc:vvayzd5bukb2pecqca3tazce/app.bsky.feed.post/3ld6ldz4uv22p
