@C_Petalas @SeabirdEcology @FmedranoM #WSTC8 #DistSesh2 we haven't tested yet but we are hoping to explore next. It seems that trips are shorter earlier in the chick rearing stage, but there are some outliers and a lot of individual variation
That’s is it for #WSCT8 and #DistSesh2
Many thanks to all of our great presenters

Now a short break before #ContSesh starts at 14:30 UTC
Thanks José Manuel for this great presentation to end the session!

4/4 #WSTC8 #DistSesh2
RESULTS
- 7 birds captured & trasnsmitting
- 4 colonies visited (7 birds), across all breeding range (Balearic Islands)
- All colonies were known
- High alternation of foraging areas, whole species' breeding foraging range

3/4 #WSTC8 #DistSesh2
METHODS
- Birds captured from a trawler off Barcelona using loop net, May-June 2021 (chick-rearing)
- Birds tagged onboard with Ornitela GPS/GSM 9g
- Also start of engraved colour-ring programme

2/4 #WSTC8 #DistSesh2
AIMS:
- Test novel capture method & tracking approach
-Study in detail a foraging area candidate to MPA (off Barcelona)
- Understand connectivity with breeding colonies
- Explore possibility of finding unknown colonies

1/4 #WSTC8 #DistSesh2
We studied connectivity between foraging areas and colonies, with novel approach: tracking of birds captured at sea
Study species: Critically Endangered Balearic shearwater

@SeabirdEcology @FmedranoM 4/4 #WSTC8 #DistSesh2 🥚 birds traveled farther & longer than 🐣, but 🐣 may conduct dual foraging (short + long trip) to access ⬆ productivity (a 1st for #stormpetrel?). IDing drivers of habitat selection is crucial to predict & conserve key #marine habitat under #climatechange

@SeabirdEcology @FmedranoM 3/4 #WSTC8 #DistSesh2 Trip duration, max distance & total distance were ⬆ for 🥚 than 🐣. 🥚 birds selected for ⬆ primary productivity & seamounts, compared to poorer areas during 🐣. Both 🥚&🐣 selected cooler waters with higher water mixing indicators. Sexes didn't differ

@SeabirdEcology @FmedranoM 2/4 #WSTC8 #DistSesh2 Using GPS tracks from #stormpetrel breeding in Cabo Verde, we tested sex & breeding stage 🥚🐣 effects on #foraging #trip characteristics. For 🥚&🐣 #habitat selection we tested oceanographic traits on trip position (presence) relative to pseudo-absences.

1/4 #WSTC8 #DistSesh2 Exploring foraging trips of White-Faced #stormpetrel during incubation🥚 & chick rearing 🐣 for the 1st time, we assessed trip differences between breeding stages & identified oceanographic drivers of habitat selection #TeamStormie @SeabirdEcology @FmedranoM

Next up is Nina O'Hanlon @Nina_OHanlon, who will presenting on “Habitat selection and specialization of herring gulls during the non-breeding season”

@TeMilitao @drbob5018 #WSTC7 #DistSesh2 There is already a little bit of geolocation data from the N Atlantic, but I think @MarPAMM_project are on the case now. Coming soon!
@TeMilitao @bennett_sophie #WSTC7 #DistSesh2 This is really interesting. I've been looking at the timing of behaviour during the breeding season. Some results coming up in #ForSesh3 tomorrow!

1/8 Hello #seabirders and a very warm welcome to the 7th World Seabird Twitter Conference #WSTC7!
We are very excited to be bringing you 3 days filled with >140 #seabird presentations from across the globe
See the full schedule for all of these talks: https://t.co/rao1ZvnTwp

📢 Check out @kirstyyfranklin's #WSTC7 #DistSesh2 presentation here 👇
Kirsty has a role with @TheSeabirdGroup, providing newsletter and social media support, but it's great to read about her PhD research into #RoundIslandPetrels today too!
1/4 #WSTC7 #DistSesh2 | Are non-breeding distributions & timings consistent in tropical #seabirds for whom resources are likely patchy/unpredictable? 🌊
As part of my BOU/@IBIS_journal funded PhD, we tracked >60 #RoundIslandPetrels over multiple years (2-5) using geolocators.

Thank you very much @kirstyyfranklin, amazing dataset and amazing study! If you want to know more about Round Island petrels, now is the moment to ask! Don’t forget the hashtags #WSTC7 and #DistSesh2
