Population differentiation and historical demography of the threatened snowy plover Charadrius nivosus (Cassin, 1858) [PDF]
Conservation Genetics, 2020 AbstractDelineating conservation units is a complex and often controversial process that is particularly challenging for highly vagile species. Here, we reassess population genetic structure and identify those populations of highest conservation value in the threatened snowy plover (Charadrius nivosus,Cassin, 1858), a partial migrant shorebird endemic ...

Integrated population modelling reveals potential drivers of demography from partially aligned data: a case study of snowy plover declines under human stressors [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 Knowledge of demography is essential for understanding wildlife population dynamics and developing appropriate conservation plans. However, population survey and demographic data (e.g., capture-recapture) are not always aligned in space and time ...

Polygamy slows down population divergence in shorebirds. [PDF]
Evolution, 2017 Sexual selection may act as a promotor of speciation since divergent mate choice and competition for mates can rapidly lead to reproductive isolation.

Identification of priority shorebird conservation areas in the Caribbean [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Despite being geographically central to the Atlantic Americas Flyway for migratory birds, the Caribbean is often overlooked or underappreciated when addressing the conservation of North American shorebirds.

Dimorfismo sexual en tamaño y marca frontal en el chorlo nevado (Charadrius nivosus)
Huitzil, 2015 El dimorfismo sexual en aves se expresa de diferentes formas, entre ellas está el tamaño o la coloración del plumaje. En aves playeras las marcas melánicas son distintas entre sexos y muy variables; se cree que cumplen una función disruptiva con el ...

Human disturbance and stage-specific habitat requirements influence snowy plover site occupancy during the breeding season. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2013 Habitat use has important consequences for avian reproductive success and survival. In coastal areas with recreational activity, human disturbance may limit use of otherwise suitable habitat.
