Injured Resources Addressed: Common Murres, Marbled Murrelets, Pigeon Guillemot

Abstract: This project is designed to determine the energy content and nutritional value of various forage fishes used by seabirds breeding in PWS/GOA, and to related differences in prey quality and availability to reproductive success and physiological condition of breeding adults. This research will emphasize pigeon guillemots, and black-legged kittiwakes. Prey composition and quality will be evaluated for common murres, marbled murrelets, and tufted puffins.
