| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, I investigate how marine top predators (streaked shearwaters and black-tailed gulls) respond to environmental changes at different temporal and spatial scales by using different types of animal-borne data logger (Global Positioning Systems, video, and accelerometer) and by measuring physiological states. They adjusted their movement behavior in relation to changes in physical and biological environments (e.g., sea surface temperature, ocean wind, and prey availability) and to their sex and internal states.
