Research Abstract |
In this study, I attached GPS data loggers on Streaked Shearwaters and analyzed their prey, and compared their behavioral information with the remotely sensed environmental data. As a result, it is suggested that the use of seabirds as monitors of coastal marine environment can be effective.
