Description
Summary:Acknowledgments This study is part of several research programs supported by the French Agency for National Research (MAMBA project ANR-16-TERC-0004, ILETOP project ANR-16-CE34-0005), the French Arctic Initiative - CNRS (PARCS project), the Mission pour l'Interdisciplinarité - CNRS (Changements en Sibérie project), the French Polar Institute (IPEV - Pgr 388 ADACLIM) and the European Commission (Marie Curie IEF to J.F., Project 273061). This study represents a contribution to the French Polar Institute ADACLIM research program (IPEV Pgr 388). C.A is supported by a PhD fellowship from the French Ministry of higher education and research. Thanks to the CPER (Contrat de Projet Etat-Région) and the FEDER (Fonds Européen de Développement Régional) for funding the AMA and the IRMS of LIENSs laboratory. We thank the plateforme analytique of the Institut du Littoral, Environnement et Sociétés (LIENSs) and Maud Brault-Favrou for the technical support on the Hg analyses. Fieldwork on Eynhallow was conducted under permits from the British Trust for Ornithology for catching and instrumenting fulmars, and the UK Home Office for feather sampling. We thank Orkney Islands Council for access to this colony. The deployment and retrieval of GLS-loggers, and sampling of feathers and blood were conducted as part of the SEATRACK-program (www.seapop.no/en/seatrack/) in Northern Europe (Norwegian and UK colonies) made possible through close cooperation with the SEAPOP program (www.seapop.no, Norwegian Research Council grant #192141) and ARCTOX network (arctox.cnrs.fr). The work was supported by a grant (232019) from the Fram Center flagship “Climate Change in Fjord and Coast” to BM. Peer reviewed
