Résumé

By combining precision satellite-tracking with blood sampling, seabirds can be used to validate marine carbon and nitrogen isoscapes, but it is unclear whether a comparable approach using low-precision light-level geolocators (GLS) and feather sampling can be similarly effective. Here we used GLS to identify wintering areas of northern gannets (Morus bassanus) and sampled winter grown feathers (confirmed from image analysis of non-breeding birds) to test for spatial gradients in δ By matching winter-grown feathers with the non-breeding location of tracked birds we found latitudinal gradients in δ Our study reveals the potential of using seabird GLS and feathers to reconstruct large-scale isotopic patterns.
