Screen shot of the first page of the PDF of the research article, Do seabirds dream of artificial lights? Understanding light preferences of Procellariiformes, authored by Elizabeth Atchoi & co. The screen shot also shows part of the abstract, starting with the sentence, 'Seabirds, and particularly fledglings of burrow-nesting species, are greatly impacted by light pollution' and the introduction.
