Extrinsic factors similarly affect nest survival of a threatened shorebird in natural and human-created habitats

Avian Conservation and Ecology
Knowledge of factors that influence nest survival can inform effective conservation management for imperiled avian species. Habitat availability and quality are common priorities of conservation efforts, and climate and interspecific associations can ...
