Breeding & Non-breeding data

BREEDING

• Central-place foragers (esp. when chicks are young)

• Lasts 6-12 months per year

NON-BREEDING

• Less tied to breeding sites

• Variety of types of non-breeding (Non-breeding season, juveniles, non-breeders)

• All year

• Fewer non-breeding data

NON-BREEDING:

Post-breeding distribution of Laysan (red) & Black-footed (yellow) Albatross

tracked from Hawaii(Scott Shaffer, TOPP, In Press)

Summary of tracking data

SOUTH PACIFIC

• Waved Albatross

• Black-browed Albatross (Chile) esp. non-breeding

• Non-breeders from New Zealand(Chatham, Salvin’s and Buller’s above 40°S)

• Concentrated in EEZs but migrate across high seas

NORTH PACIFIC• Important for Black-footed Albatross

esp. non-breeders (also Laysan Albatross)

• Extensive use of high seas areas (mostly above 20°N)

RFMO Seabird Assessments:

IATTC Seabird Resolution ‘05 Seabird Assessment

ICCAT Seabird Resolution ‘02 Seabird Assessment

IOTC Seabird Resolution ‘05 Seabird Assessment

WCPFC Seabird Resolution ‘05 Mortality estimates

CCSBT Seabird Resolution ‘97 ?

• What next?

• Coordination with other RFMOs?
