Length polymorphisms at two candidate genes explain variation of migratory behaviors in blackpoll warblers (Setophaga striata)

Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Migratory behaviors such as the timing and duration of migration are genetically inherited and can be under strong natural selection, yet we still know very little about the specific genes or molecular pathways that control these behaviors.

High‐intensity bird migration along Alpine valleys calls for protective measures against anthropogenically induced avian mortality

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation
The Alps are a natural barrier for avian broad‐front migration in Central Europe. While most birds that approach the Alps are deflected and circumvent the mountains, some choose to make the crossing.

Stochastic simulations reveal few green wave surfing populations among spring migrating herbivorous waterfowl

Nature Communications, 2019
The green wave hypothesis is often considered a key driver of spring migration in avian herbivores. Here the authors employ a multispecies comparison and find that migration did not track the green wave better than simulated stochastic migrations.

Mortality limits used in wind energy impact assessment underestimate impacts of wind farms on bird populations

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
The consequences of bird mortality caused by collisions with wind turbines are increasingly receiving attention. So‐called acceptable mortality limits of populations, that is, those that assume that 1%–5% of additional mortality and the potential ...

The global ecology of bird migration: patterns and processes

Frontiers of Biogeography, 2016
Nearly 20% of bird species are migratory, their seasonal movements causing a redistribution of bird diversity that radically changes avian community composition worldwide.

Autumn migration patterns of buntings (Emberiza spp.) in eastern Fennoscandia

Амурский зоологический журнал
The paper examines the migration chronology of three bunting species (Emberiza spp.) in eastern Fennoscandia (Russia), focusing on autumn when most captured individuals were first-year birds undertaking their first migration.
