Linked Changes in Prey Availability and Population Structure: Using Antarctic Fur Seals to Sample Marine Systems

This study tested hypotheses relating the foraging trip durations of lactating female Antarctic fur seals, to the abundance and availability of Antarctic krill, where the mean length of krill consumed is used a proxy of krill availability. Over six years, 1568 foraging trips were measured for 178 in...
