#Puffin chicks from different colonies have different gut microbes, but these differences disappear by adulthood—suggesting the environment is important in shaping the gut #microbiome early in life. New paper led by @eveliinahanski.bsky.social Link: tinyurl.com/4t7senvx #seabirds #ornithology

New large-scale study based on SEAPOP data shows that #ocean #warming threatens #seabirds in the North Atlantic @ninanatureresearch.bsky.social

Ocean warming threatens seabirds in the North Atlantic
Climate change is causing ocean warming, acidification and loss of sea ice. This, in turn, is leading to shifting biogeographic distribution and in some cases species extinction.
