Stable Isotope and Corticosterone in Bering Sea Seabird Feathers 1911-2015
A 20 mm segment of primary feathers were collected from red-legged kittiwake, black-legged kittiwake, thick-billed murre, common murre, and least auklet museum specimens and field captured breeding individuals to determine whether and how seabirds breeding in the Bering Sea have responded to changes...
