Huge thanks to all my collaborators on this project, it has been amazing working with you! We are also grateful to the funding agencies and fieldworkers, without whom this work would not have been possible! @liverpooluni.bsky.social @ukri.org @bas.ac.uk @predateursmarins.bsky.social

However, earlier and faster reproductive senescence correlates with higher lifetime reproductive success (LRS) 🐣 regardless of environmental variability. This result suggests that either faster life histories yield higher fitness or successful reproduction accelerates reproductive senescence

We show that black-browed #albatrosses breeding in more variable environments display slower life histories (slow, late-onset reproductive senescence) and greater among-individual variation in life-history strategies

📃New paper We looked at incubating common eiders 🦆 responses to repeated human approaches (mirroring a predation attempt 🦅). Individuals differed in their response and this was linked to variation in reproductive investment and perceived threat level doi.org/10.1016/j.an... @ecophycebc.bsky.social
