Pelagic birds: misunderstood inhabitants of the oceans
Keywords:
marine, islands, fisheries, vulnerable, climate changeAbstract
Pelagic birds are a group of littleknown birds, because most of their lives are spent flying at sea and they only go to the coast or islands to reproduce. This is why it is important to know more about them, since by following their patterns and habits we can learn more about marine ecosystems and the current status of the species on which they feed.
