Article Synopsis
  • - The study developed a new method to analyze penguin tracking data, aimed at identifying crucial areas for seabird conservation, particularly for marine Important Bird Areas (IBAs) around the Antarctic Peninsula and nearby regions.
  • - Key improvements were made to existing protocols by enhancing track interpolation techniques and refining parameters for kernel analysis, applied to tracking data from 24 penguin datasets across various breeding stages.
  • - The research identified five new marine IBAs that could support about 600,000 adult penguins, showcasing the effectiveness of this method for creating a protective network for penguins and informing management practices for krill fisheries.

Interspecific competition can drive niche partitioning along multidimensional axes, including allochrony. Competitor matching will arise where the phenology of sympatric species with similar ecological requirements responds to climate change at different rates such that allochrony is reduced. Our study quantifies the degree of niche segregation in foraging areas and depths that arises from allochrony in sympatric Adélie and chinstrap penguins and explores its resilience to climate change.
