Antarctic Sea-Birds as Subjects for Ecological Research
P(論文) The environment of the Antarctic and Subantarctic region is briefly described, mainly as it affects the breeding of sea-birds. The 36 species of 8 families that breed mainly in this region, and their feeding and nesting requirements, are listed. Breeding distribution and annual cycles are anal...

In the latter it is established that socially-induced deferment of maturity to 5-11 years of age is due to competition for feeding status at sea and not for nest-site or breeding status ashore.
