• BycatchBroader topic: Albatrosses can be killed when they take baited hooks from longline vessels.

• Wing loadingBroader topic: Its low wing loading supports sustained flight at relatively low speeds.

• Salt glandBroader topic: Nasal salt glands let albatrosses drink seawater and eliminate excess salt.

• Soaring flightBroader topic: Albatrosses are iconic practitioners of dynamic soaring over open water.

• Dynamic soaringBroader topic: Albatrosses use dynamic soaring to travel long distances over the sea with little flapping.

• The Rime of the Ancient MarinerBroader topic: The mariner’s killing of this bird triggers the voyage’s central punishment.

• WaterbirdBroader topic: Albatrosses represent waterbirds specialized for open marine environments.

• ProcellariiformesBroader topic: Albatrosses are the largest and most wide-ranging members of the order.

• Midway AtollNarrower topic: Midway’s conservation value is especially visible in its albatross colonies.

• PelagornisCompared with: Their soaring offers a living comparison for hypotheses about Pelagornis's flight.

• FrigatebirdCompared with: Both soar over the ocean, but albatrosses can land and feed on the water more readily.

• PelagornithidaeCompared with: Albatrosses are living analogues for the oceanic soaring often proposed for pelagornithids.

• Austral storm petrelCompared with: Albatrosses share the open-ocean environment but are much larger and belong to a different family.

• Northern storm petrelCompared with: Albatrosses share the order but contrast with the storm petrels in size and flight style.

• SkuaCompared with: Albatrosses rely on oceanic foraging and soaring rather than the skuas’ characteristic pursuit of other birds.
