Seabird colonies as important global drivers in the nitrogen and phosphorus cycles
The global impact of seabird populations on nutrient cycles is poorly understood. Here, the authors use a bioenergetic model and a global seabird population inventory to estimate the amounts of nitrogen and phosphorus excreted by seabirds and estimate them to be 591 Gg N y−1 and 99 Gg P y−1 respecti...
