Plant dispersal by Canada geese in Arctic Greenland
Polar Research, 2018 Despite the abundance of migratory geese as herbivores in the Arctic, and ongoing changes in their populations and distributions, little is known about their role in seed dispersal. Climate change requires Arctic plants to adjust their distributions, and

Drive-by Netting: a Technique for Capturing Grebes and Other Diving Waterfowl
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 We describe a new method (drive-by netting) for capturing grebes (Podiceps spp.) and other birds that dive under water to escape capture. We used a floating gill net to capture 203 eared grebes (Podiceps nigricollis) in 20 days in 1999 on the Great Salt ...

Plant traits associated with seed dispersal by ducks and geese in urban and natural habitats
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Ducks and geese are little studied dispersal vectors for plants lacking a fleshy fruit, and our understanding of the traits associated with these plants is limited.
