I'm happy to share our new paper showing that gulls transport during the winter 270 kg of plastics (>8 million plastic particles!) @ebdonana.bsky.social @victormartinvel.bsky.social @drandygreen.bsky.social @juliancap.bsky.social @catarinalopes90.bsky.social

New paper out exploring how diet shifts in mallards change gut functioning, and the consequences for dispersal of zooplankton eggs via gut passage @ebdonana.bsky.social www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
In this new paper we show that invasive Artemia franciscana dramatically reduce parasite abundance in hypersaline ecosystems. Parasite extinction is a ignored dimension of biodiversity crisis. @ebdonana.bsky.social @drandygreen.bsky.social @neobiota.pensoft.net neobiota.pensoft.net/articles.php...

Our new paper shows that when birds breed in artificial wetlands, they can still depend on surrounding natural wetlands. GPS tracking of black-headed gulls in #Doñana @ebdonana.bsky.social @britishecologicalsociety.org @seobirdlife.bsky.social besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Waterbirds play a crucial role in endozoochory, facilitating the dispersal of invertebrates through the gut passage of resting eggs. They adjust their…
Aquatic ecosystems are characterised by strong trophic links, which can be profoundly altered by the loss or introduction of species. Invasive species that displace key native species may indirectly a...

The importance of artificial wetlands for waterbird conservation can be easily overestimated from count data alone. The value of extensive fish ponds as a breeding habitat depends on maintaining the ....

Satellite tracking has revolutionized our understanding of animal migration, yet its reliability increasingly depends on the geopolitical stability of the regions frequented by wildlife. Here, we show...
The red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) and the eastern mosquitofish (Gambusia holbrooki), native to North America, are highly invasive in temperate aquatic environments worldwide, where they...

We show how geopolitical conflicts can disrupt signals, generating erratic GPS tracks in #AnimalMovement studies
Using migratory gulls, we highlight how these biases can affect research in #Ecology and #OneHealth 👇
