Adélie penguin foraging location predicted by tidal regime switching.

Adélie penguin foraging location predicted by tidal regime switching.

Penguin foraging and breeding success depend on broad-scale environmental and local-scale hydrographic features of their habitat. We investigated the effect of local tidal currents on a population of Adélie penguins on Humble Is., Antarctica. We used satellite-tagged penguins, an autonomous underwat...
