Lineage | Geolocator-immersion loggers (GLS) combined with stable isotope analysis of feathers were collected to clarify movements and to examine trophic position of sooty shearwaters from Kidney Island during the 2008 and 2009 breeding and nonbreeding seasons. The timing and routes of migration, the duration of residence at the main staging and wintering areas, broad scale habitat associations and trophic positions were identified (Hedd et al. 2012). The data were also used to examine the extent of sexual segregation in the birds disitribution and behaviour throughout the annual cycle (Hedd et al 2014). Results of the study have been published as Hedd A, Montevecchi WA, H Oatley, Phillips RA, Fifield DA (2012) Trans-equatorial migration and habitat use by sooty shearwaters Puffinus griseus from the South Atlantic during the nonbreeding season, Marine Ecology Progresse Series, Vol. 449: 277??"290, 2012, and Hedd A, Montevecchi WA, Phillips RA, Fifield DA (2014) Seasonal Sexual Segregation by Monomorphic Sooty Shearwaters Puffinus griseus Reflects Different Reproductive Roles during the Pre-Laying Period.
