Seabird and prey interactions are largely influenced by dynamics in marine ecosystems, especially during the breeding season. The availability of prey is affected by oceanographic processes and environmental factors. Black-legged kittiwakes (Rissa tridactyla) in Kongsfjorden on Svalbard have experienced a change in available prey species during the last three years. Warm saline Atlantic water has dominated Kongsfjorden since 2005. As a result of the after a large inflow of Atlantic water masses to the western part of Svalbard in 2007 capelin (Mallotus villosus) has substituted polar cod (Boreogadus saida) in the diet of breeding kittiwakes. Diet data from the field season of 2009 has been compared with diet data from 1997, 1998 and 2004-200...
