When and why to give shorebirds a head start

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Headstarting is a translocation technique involving the hatching or rearing of wild eggs or young in captivity and the release of those individuals back to the wild at or before independence. It has been trialed as a conservation intervention for shorebirds over recent decades to improve the population trend of target populations by increasing

Prey Distribution Mapping to Support Conservation Planning

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Biodiversity conservation broadly relies on protecting suitable habitat for species of concern, and species distribution models (SDM) are a common method for classifying potential habitat suitability. However, SDMs frequently omit resource availability and are therefore missing potentially useful information for planning successful ...

Early‐life demographic processes do not drive adult sex ratio biases and mating systems in sympatric coucal species

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 38, Issue 8, Page 1779-1795, August 2024.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Sex differences in early‐life survival can drive skewed adult sex ratios (ASR), which play an important role in mating tactics and parental sex roles. Among birds, cuckoos exhibit the largest diversity in mating systems and thus represent an interesting system to study ...
