Mapping storm-petrel movements to quantify marine risk during breeding

Leach's Storm-petrel populations have declined rapidly, yet their exposure to threats at sea during breeding remained largely unknown, until now. Using a multi-year GPS tracking dataset from six colonies representing over 90% of the Atlantic population, we classified behavioural states to quantify risk. Densities were highest east of Newfoundland, and deepwater drilling in the Orphan Basin and Flemish Pass has substantially increased risk. Artificial light at night consistently posed greater danger than hypothetical oil spills.
