Research shows Adélie penguins must balance the benefits and costs of riding on sea ice during long-distance migration

Research by Petaluma-based non-profit, Point Blue Conservation Science, shows how Adélie penguins within the Ross Sea, Antarctica use sea ice in their annual migrations. The paper, "Going with the floe: Sea‐ice movement affects distance and destination during Adélie penguin winter movements," is published in the journal Ecology.
