  abstract = {{T}he increasing use of, and visits to, isolated territories by people (especially tourists) enables the investigation of how biodiversity reacts to evolutionarily novel pressures. {W}e explored the behavioural reaction of a breeding seabird species, the {B}rown {N}oddy{A}nous stolidus, to our repeated visits at two study sites in the {C}hesterfield {I}slands, a newly classified reserve in the {C}oral {S}ea {N}atural {P}ark. {R}epeated measures of flight-initiation distances ({FID}s) at three sites and over time suggest that human visitations induced both a spatial phenotypical sorting or learning of individuals and a temporal habituation. {I}n light of the novel '{S}it and {D}efend' mode of avian nest defence, the study finally provides the first dataset of {FID}s for this species, and highlights management opportunities that could arise from the replication of such an approach to other breeding seabirds and therefore the conservation of remote island ecosystems.},
