Foraging habitats of top predators, and Areas of Ecological Significance, on the Kerguelen Plateau ...
Avian and mammalian predators play a key role in the Kerguelen Plateau ecosystem, both with respect to structuring the marine community and its response to anthropogenic influences, such as climate change and commercial fisheries.
