Filtered, yet not homogenised: Urbanisation does not lead to cross-city convergence in Mexican urban bird communities. [PDF]
J Anim EcolUrbanisation simplifies bird communities, but does not necessarily make urban avifaunas alike. Across three biogeographically distinct Mexican cities, urban bird assemblages remained regionally distinct despite strong local filtering. These results challenge assumptions of urban‐driven homogenisation and emphasise the dominant role of regional species ...

Functional traits explain responses of Appalachian birds to vertical and horizontal forest structure. [PDF]
J Anim EcolThe study of bird–forest relationships dates back decades, but rarely have the relationships of functional traits to 3D forest structure responses been considered for dozens of species at regional scales. Abstract Species interact with habitat based on their functional traits, but it is unclear how specific traits interact with the multiple components ...
