Global distribution of aquatic animal telemetry effort reveals geographic biases and opportunities for more inclusive tracking studies

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Despite broad global distribution of aquatic telemetry studies, important biogeographic regions remain poorly investigated. The most important variables correlated with the distribution of telemetry studies were political stability, conservation funding, number of scientific documents, and English as a first language.

Steep declines of colonial wading birds in northeastern North America's largest breeding population

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
This study analyzed 22 years of complete nest census data for colonial wading birds in New York–New Jersey Harbor, the largest breeding population in the northeastern United States. Over this period, the total wading bird population decreased by 27%, a rate exceeding average long‐term declines across North American birds.

Ortolan buntings (Emberiza hortulana) consistently select breeding territories with structurally diverse crops on well‐drained soils

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
This study investigated consistency in habitat selection over a 12‐year period in a breeding population of Ortolan Bunting in Uelzen, Lower Saxony (Germany). We demonstrate strong interannual variation in crop type preferences and avoidance and breeding territories were strongly associated with well‐drained soils with low soil fertility.

Epidemiology study and risk assessments of highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 in free flying birds in Thailand

, 2010
The highly pathogenic avian influenza virus H5N1 was the cause of a pandemic of avian influenza in poultry throughout many parts of the world. The role of wild birds in the transmission and cycling of this virus has been uncertain and the current study ...

Can you really change your stripes? Stable wing ornamentation suggests limited condition‐dependent signalling in female common eiders

Ibis, EarlyView.
Variation in the expression of white ornaments, such as flank spots or wing stripes, has previously been related to indices of individual quality in birds. We measured the white wing stripes of colour‐banded female common eiders Somateria mollissima in three islands in Iceland from 2014 to 2023, to determine whether the expression of these ornaments is
