*ost-fledging migration of common murres Una aalge in the Baltic Sea: management implications
In ihis study of common murre Uria aalge chicks, at Slora Karlso in the Baltic Sea (Sweden), we used two data sets to investigate the post-fledging migration to learn more on potential threats from human activities. Firstly, we radio tracked 12 chicks on average 5.1 h during their first night at sea...
