Species-specific foraging strategies and segregation mechanisms of sympatric Antarctic fulmarine petrels throughout the annual cycle
International audience Determining the year-round distribution and behaviour of birds is necessary for a betterunderstanding of their ecology and foraging strategies. Petrels form an important componentof the high-latitude seabird assemblages in terms of species and individuals. The distributionand...

International audience Determining the year-round distribution and behaviour of birds is necessary for a betterunderstanding of their ecology and foraging strategies. Petrels form an important componentof the high-latitude seabird assemblages in terms of species and individuals. The distributionand foraging ecology of three sympatric fulmarine petrels (Southern FulmarFulmarus glacialoides, Cape Petrel Daption capense and Snow Petrel Pagodroma nivea)were studied at Adelie Land, East Antarctica, by combining information from miniaturizedsaltwater immersion geolocators and stable isotopes from feathers.
