Is mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation efficiency a key factor for a successful breeding in the artic Kittiwake? P.-A Monternier France

It is well known that energy metabolism is strongly related to body size and internal organ masses. At the subcellular level, studies have clearly reported that interspecific variation in body mass can be related to some aspects of mitochondrial bioenerge tics. In birds, the reproductive period i...

Past, current and future research on kittiwakes in Kongsfjorden: The opportunity of an international integration (Workshop Feb/Mar 2013)

Observations and experiments in wild seabirds have greatly progressed our understanding on how individuals and populations cope with environmental variability and change. The annual research in Kongsfjorden that we have carried out during most of the past 20 years has been an important contribut...

Seabird Population Responses to Changes in Food Conditions

Since current environmental change alters the distribution, abundance and timing of prey species in marine ecosystems, higher trophic levels will need to respond to changes in food availability. Observations from seabirds in the North Atlantic and the Nor th Pacific provide evidence that trade-of...

Intraspecific variation in the basal metabolism of birds

For a certain biological trait to evolve (or change) through natural selection, three fundamental prerequisites must be fulfilled. Firstly, variation in the trait must necessarily be capable of influencing the inclusive fitness of individuals. Secondly, t he between-individual variation should be...
