  Title (down) Using Borehole Sonic Logging to Infer Ice Microstructure and Climate History Type Conference - International - Communication
  Year 2011 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Vol. 13, EGU2011-14160, 2011 Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract The physical properties of ice from glacial time periods appear to differ from those from interglacial time periods. Glacial ice typically has smaller crystals, higher impurity content, and stronger fabric (preferred orientation of crystal c-axes). Because ice deformation is sensitive to the orientation of crystals, the fabric affects patterns of ice flow, which in turn affects estimates of annual-layer thinning rates and the depth-age scale for ice-core records.Furthermore, a positive feedback exists between development of crystal fabric and ice deformation such that under
certain stress conditions, a climate-induced variation of fabric near the surface may be enhanced through time and depth in an ice sheet.
We use borehole sonic logging to measure both compressional-wave (p-wave) speed which we use to infer a continuous profile of the fabric (after corrections for temperature and porosity). The speed for p-waves propagating along the c-axes is higher than the speed for waves propagating across the c-axes. Near ice-sheet centers, where the ice typically develops a vertical single maximum fabric, the p-wave speed in the vertical direction (along the axis of the borehole) provides a measure of the strength of the fabric for a volume of ice 3m along the length of the borehole and approximately 1m radius deep into the ice.
We review and compare borehole sonic-logging data from boreholes in the Greenland and Antarctic ice
sheets. The Antarctic profiles show a stronger gradient in fabric during major climate transitions than the Greenland borehole profiles. Both ice sheets, however, eventually reach similar fabric strength at depth. We find that the strength of fabric derived from p-wave speed matches thin-section data for single maxima fabrics and is highly correlated with oxygen isotope ratios, suggesting a direct link to climate history. The p-wave speed is high (strong fabric) during periods of extremely negative oxygen isotope ratios (glacial periods). Furthermore, the
magnitude of the variability of the p-wave speed and its correlation with oxygen isotopes increases with depth;this provides evidence in support of the positive feedback mechanism between fabric development, deformation,and climate.

  Title (down) Using blood and feathers to investigate large-scale Hg contamination in Arctic seabirds: A review Type Journal
  Year 2019 Publication Environmental Research Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 177 Issue Pages 108588  
  Keywords Mercury Molting pattern Seabirds Spatial ecotoxicology  
  Abstract Mercury (Hg), because of its deleterious effects on wildlife and its high concentrations in polar regions, has been widely studied in the Arctic. This provided important information regarding food web contamination, spatial and temporal trends of Hg in ecosystems or risk assessments for wildlife and Humans. Among the Arctic biota, seabirds have been among the most studied species due to their sensitivity to this toxicant, their role as bioindicators of the contamination status of their environment, and their consumption by Arctic communities. However, most studies that investigated Hg in Arctic seabirds focused on measurements in internal organs or in eggs, while few investigations have been performed on blood and feathers, despite the relevant and complementary information they provide. Here, we first provide a detailed overview of the specific information blood and feathers can bring when investigating Hg contamination of Arctic seabirds, including new knowledge on the poorly studied non-breeding period. Second, we perform a comprehensive review of the use of blood and feathers as non-lethal tissues to study Hg in Arctic seabirds. This review demonstrates important interspecific variations in Hg blood concentrations according to seabird trophic status, with seaducks generally presenting the lowest Hg concentrations while auks have the highest ones. However, all the observed Hg concentrations are below the admitted toxicity thresholds. Hg concentrations in feathers follow similar trends and gulls appear to be the most contaminated species, likely as a consequence of contrasting migratory and overwintering strategies. This review also confirms strong spatial variations with higher concentrations found in the Canadian Arctic and Pacific waters than in Greenland and the European Arctic. It also identifies some major understudied areas such as West Greenland, Aleutian Islands and Russia. Finally, we provide a thorough review of the current knowledge regarding molting patterns in Arctic seabirds, which is an essential information to interpret Hg concentrations measured in feathers. Overall, our results point out the importance of blood and feathers in seabird ecotoxicological assessments and highlight the need for large scale international collaborations and research programs.

  Title (down) Use of stable isotopes to quantify seasonal changes of trophic niche and levels of population and individual specialisation in seabirds Type Journal Article
  Year 2010 Publication Mar Ecol Prog Ser Abbreviated Journal Mar. Ecol. Prog. Ser.  
  Volume 401 Issue Pages 269 -277  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Niche variation is a widespread phenomenon that has important implications for ecological interactions and conservation biology, but few studies have quantified the trophic niche width (TNW) and its within- and between-individual components. We used stable isotopes of body feathers to investigate (1) seasonal isotopic niche changes of 4 southern procellariiforms and, (2) the level to which individuals are specialised relative to their population within each season. (1) δ13C and δ15N values of chicks and adults indicated a well-defined trophic segregation within the seabird assemblage during both the breeding and poorly known moulting (inter-nesting) periods, and they underlined marked species-specific seasonal changes. One species (light-mantled sooty albatross) remained within the Southern Ocean both during breeding and body feather moult, while the 3 others migrated either to oceanic subtropical waters (wandering and sooty albatrosses) or high isotopic marine areas (e.g. productive neritic waters; white-chinned petrel) during the moulting period. (2) Isotopic variances and TNW were generally low, indicating that birds belong to isotopic specialist populations within a given period. Variances and TNW were larger for white-chinned petrel chicks and light-mantled sooty albatross adults, respectively, indicating isotopic generalist populations and revealing 2 new foraging behaviours. Individual white-chinned petrel chicks segregated by their feather isotopic signatures, thus indicating individual/pair specialisation of parent birds during the chick-rearing period. The light-mantled sooty albatross population included mostly isotopic generalist individuals during the moulting period, with individuals using different habitats and diets. The study highlights the utility of feather isotopic signature for determining TNW and points out the necessity to develop such new approaches to better depict niche variations at both population and individual levels.

  Title (down) Use of radar detectors to track attendance of albatrosses at fishing vessels Type Journal
  Year 2017 Publication Conservation Biology Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 32 Issue 1 Pages 240-245  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Abstract Despite international waters covering over 60% of the world's oceans, understanding of how fisheries in these regions shape ecosystem processes is surprisingly poor. Seabirds forage at fishing vessels, which has potentially deleterious effects for their population, but the extent of overlap and behavior in relation to ships is poorly known. Using novel biologging devices, which detect radar emissions and record the position of boats and seabirds, we measured the true extent of the overlap between seabirds and fishing vessels and generated estimates of the intensity of fishing and distribution of vessels in international waters. During breeding, wandering albatrosses (Diomedea exulans) from the Crozet Islands patrolled an area of over 10 million km2 at distances up to 2500 km from the colony. Up to 79.5% of loggers attached to birds detected vessels. The extent of overlap between albatrosses and fisheries has widespread implications for bycatch risk in seabirds and reveals the areas of intense fishing throughout the ocean. We suggest that seabirds equipped with radar detectors are excellent monitors of the presence of vessels in the Southern Ocean and offer a new way to monitor the presence of illegal fisheries and to better understand the impact of fisheries on seabirds.
