Good days, bad days: wind as a driver of foraging success in a flightless seabird, the southern rockhopper penguin.
Due to their restricted foraging range, flightless seabirds are ideal models to study the short-term variability in foraging success in response to environmentally driven food availability. Wind can be a driver of upwelling and food abundance in marine ecosystems such as the Southern Ocean, where wi...
