Population trends of seabirds in Mexican Islands at the California Current System.

The Baja California Pacific Islands (BCPI) is a seabird hotspot in the southern California Current System supporting 129 seabird breeding populations of 23 species and over one million birds annually. These islands had a history of environmental degradation because of invasive alien species, human disturbance, and contaminants that caused the extirpation of 27 seabird populations. Most of the invasive mammals have been eradicated and colonies have been restored with social attraction techniques.

Sexual Dimorphism and Foraging Trips of the Laysan Albatross () on Guadalupe Island.

Sexual dimorphism in the Laysan albatross () on Guadalupe Island was evaluated during the breeding seasons of 2015-2018 by measuring and comparing 10 morphological attributes: cranial length, bill length, nostril length, cranial width, bill height, bill width, tarsus length, closed wing length, opened wing length, and wingspan length in reproductive adults ( = 135). Males were larger than females across all traits (Student's -test, < 0.05, < 0.
