Variability in foraging ranges of snow petrels and implications for breeding distribution and use of stomach-oil deposits as proxies for paleoclimate

Ewan D. Wakefield, Erin L. McClymont, Sébastien Descamps, W. James Grecian, A. Rus Hoelzel, Eleanor Maedhbh Honan, Anna S. Rix, Henri Robert, Vegard Sandøy Bråthen, Richard A. Phillips

This study tracks snow petrel foraging ranges to better interpret stomach-oil deposits as paleoclimate proxies, finding that foraging areas vary seasonally and by breeding stage.
