Invasive rodent eradication on islands.
- G. Howald, C. J. Donlan, +9 authors B. Tershy
- Biology, Medicine
- Conservation biology : the journal of the Society…
- 1 October 2007
Invasive mammals are the greatest threat to island biodiversity and invasive rodents are likely responsible for the greatest number of extinctions and ecosystem changes. Techniques for eradicating… Expand
From wind to whales: trophic links in a coastal upwelling system
- D. Croll, Baldo Marinovic, +4 authors B. Tershy
- Biology
- 30 March 2005
Blue whales Balaenoptera musculus meet the highest prey demands of any predator that has ever existed by feeding exclusively upon dense but patchy schools of pelagic euphausiids. We examined the role… Expand
Severity of the effects of invasive rats on seabirds: a global review.
- Holly P. Jones, B. Tershy, +4 authors G. Howald
- Biology, Medicine
- Conservation biology : the journal of the Society…
- 1 February 2008
Invasive rats are some of the largest contributors to seabird extinction and endangerment worldwide. We conducted a meta-analysis of studies on seabird-rat interactions to examine which seabird… Expand
A Review of Feral Cat Eradication on Islands
- M. Nogales, A. Martín, +5 authors J. Alonso
- Geography
- 1 April 2004
This rewiev would not have been possible without the collaboration of many researchers who shared all sorts of information with us, sometimes unpublished. We are especially indebted to D. Merton and… Expand
A global review of the impacts of invasive cats on island endangered vertebrates
- F. M. Medina, Elsa Bonnaud, +7 authors Manuel Nogales
- Biology
- 1 November 2011
Cats are generalist predators that have been widely introduced to the world’s ~179 000 islands. Once introduced to islands, cats prey on a variety of native species many of which lack evolved… Expand
The diving behavior of blue and fin whales: is dive duration shorter than expected based on oxygen stores?
- D. Croll, A. Acevedo-Gutiérrez, B. Tershy, J. Urbán-Ramírez
- Biology, Medicine
- Comparative biochemistry and physiology. Part A…
- 1 July 2001
Many diving seabirds and marine mammals have been found to regularly exceed their theoretical aerobic dive limit (TADL). No animals have been found to dive for durations that are consistently shorter… Expand
Blue whale habitat and prey in the California Channel Islands
- P. Fiedler, Stephen B. Reilly, +7 authors B. Mate
- Geography
- 1 August 1998
Abstract Whale Habitat and Prey Studies were conducted off southern California during August 1995 (WHAPS95) and July 1996 (WHAPS96) to (1) study the distribution and activities of blue whales and… Expand
Penguins, fur seals, and fishing: prey requirements and potential competition in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica
Abstract Antarctic and sub-Antarctic seabirds, marine mammals, and human fisheries concentrate their foraging efforts on a single species, Antarctic krill (Euphausiasuperba). Because these predators… Expand
The diet of feral cats on islands: a review and a call for more studies
- E. Bonnaud, F. M. Medina, +7 authors S. V. Horwath
- Biology
- Biological Invasions
- 1 March 2011
Cats are among the most successful and damaging invaders on islands and a significant driver of extinction and endangerment. Better understanding of their ecology can improve effective management… Expand
The effect of feral cats on the population viability of black‐vented shearwaters (Puffinus opisthomelas) on Natividad Island, Mexico
- B. Keitt, C. Wilcox, B. Tershy, D. Croll, C. J. Donlan
- Biology
- 1 August 2002
Insular breeding seabirds are likely to be particularly vulnerable to introduced mammalian predators because they often lack behavioural, morphological and life-history defenses against predation. We… Expand
