Contrasting responses of male and female foraging effort to year-round wind conditions (2015)
Journal Article
Lewis, S., Phillips, R. A., Burthe, S. J., Wanless, S., & Daunt, F. (2015). Contrasting responses of male and female foraging effort to year-round wind conditions. Journal of Animal Ecology, 84(6), 1490-1496. https://doi.org/10.1111/1365-2656.12419

There is growing interest in the effects of wind on wild animals, given evidence that wind speeds are increasing and becoming more variable in some regions, particularly at temperate latitudes. Wind may alter movement patterns or foraging ability, wi... Read More about Contrasting responses of male and female foraging effort to year-round wind conditions.

Indirect effects of parasitism: costs of infection to other individuals can be greater than direct costs borne by the host (2015)
Journal Article
Granroth-Wilding, H. M. V., Burthe, S. J., Lewis, S., Herborn, K. A., Takahashi, E. A., Daunt, F., & Cunningham, E. J. A. (2015). Indirect effects of parasitism: costs of infection to other individuals can be greater than direct costs borne by the host. Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 282(1811), Article 20150602. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2015.0602

Parasitic infection has a direct physiological cost to hosts but may also alter how hosts interact with other individuals in their environment. Such indirect effects may alter both host fitness and the fitness of other individuals in the host's socia...

Age-Related Variation in Foraging Behaviour in the Wandering Albatross at South Georgia: No Evidence for Senescence (2015)
Journal Article
Froy, H., Lewis, S., Catry, P., Bishop, C. M., Forster, I. P., Fukuda, A., Higuchi, H., Phalan, B., Xavier, J. C., Nussey, D. H., & Phillips, R. A. (2015). Age-Related Variation in Foraging Behaviour in the Wandering Albatross at South Georgia: No Evidence for Senescence. PLOS ONE, 10(1), Article e0116415. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0116415

Age-related variation in demographic rates is now widely documented in wild vertebrate systems, and has significant consequences for population and evolutionary dynamics. However, the mechanisms underpinning such variation, particularly in later life...
