The habitats and foods used by a sample of marked individuals and by the whole population of Oystercatchers Haematopus ostralegus wintering on the Exe estuary, South Devon, are described. In the spring and early summer, only a few hundred immatures w

Sex allocation theory predicts that parents may manipulate the sex ratio of their offspring in response to parental fitness or possible future fitness gains. In birds, family-level brood sex-ratio variation has been related to the external environmen

Intertidal estuaries in north–west Europe provide essential feeding grounds for internationally important numbers of overwintering shorebirds. Monitoring of the food supply available in these intertidal habitats is central to shorebird conservation

In a number of extensive coastal areas in northwest Europe, large numbers of long-lived migrant birds eat shellfish that are also commercially harvested. Competition between birds and people for this resource often leads to conflicts between commerci

Summary 1 It is often difficult to quantify the separate contribution of exploitation and interference competition to the starvation of poor competitors yet, in vertebrates, it seems widely supposed that depletion is normally the mechanism underlying

A modelling approach is used to explore the effect of age and sex differences in oystercatcher (Haematopus ostralegus) winter mortality on population size, population structure and the population response to habitat loss or change. Increasing the mor

Human interests often conflict with those of wildlife. In the coastal zone humans often exploit shellfish populations that would otherwise provide food for populations of shorebirds (Charadrii). There has been considerable debate on the consequences

Summary 1. In order to assess the future impact of a proposed development or evaluate the cost effectiveness of proposed mitigating measures, ecologists must be able to provide accurate predictions under new environmental conditions. The difficulty w

Spatial variations in the availability and quality of the mussel Mytilus edulis food supply of Oystercatchers Haematopus ostralegus on the Exe estuary, England, are described. Oystercatchers open mussels by stabbing into gaping mussels (or prising op

The impact of potentially toxic chemicals on wildlife is commonly assessed by comparing the intake of the contaminant with the “no observable effects level” (NOAEL) of intake. It is known, however, that there are considerable uncertainties inhere
