Aggregating three sources of long‐term trends of swallows and martins to identify priority conservation areas in the Great Lakes region

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
Our data integration methodology allows managers to identify regions that accumulate evidence of concerning trends across multiple wildlife monitoring schemes. These regions can thus be prioritized in conservation and management efforts. This approach can be generalized to other sources of long‐term monitoring data of different species, at different ...

Strong Variation in Land‐Use Change Impacts on Tropical Avian Phylogenetic Diversity Between Ecoregions Highlights the Need to Sample Large Spatial Scales

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 1, January 2026.
Forest conversion for agriculture is a major cause of biodiversity loss in the tropics, but its impacts depend on how broadly they are measured. Using data from across Colombia, one of the most biodiverse countries in the world, we examined how deforestation for cattle farming affects the evolutionary history of bird species.

Linking Habitat Conditions, Human Pressures, and Waterbird Diversity in a West African Coastal Wetland

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The Tanji wetland complex, situated on the Atlantic coast of The Gambia, is a coastal mosaic of mangroves, riparian forest, lagoons, and offshore islands of high ornithological significance. Despite its protected status, the reserve faces mounting pressures from human activities and environmental change, yet comprehensive ecological data ...

Recombination Rate and Recurrent Linked Selection Shape Correlated Genomic Landscapes Across a Continuum of Divergence in Swallows

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 22, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Disentangling the drivers of genomic divergence during speciation is essential to our broader understanding of the generation of biological diversity. Genetic changes accumulate at variable rates across the genome as populations diverge, leading to heterogenous landscapes of genetic differentiation.

Evolution of nest construction in swallows (Hirundinidae): a molecular phylogenetic perspective. [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1993
Nest construction is more diverse in the Hirundinidae than in any other family of oscine birds. To explore the evolution of this diversity, we superimposed nest data on a DNA-hybridization phylogeny of 17 swallow species. Nest construction is tightly linked to the inferred evolutionary history.

Taxonomic resolution in dual‐polarization weather radar observations of biological scatterers: A systematic review

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract The derivation of biological information—abundance, diversity, movement of organisms—from dual‐polarization weather surveillance radars (WSRs) presents an opportunity for novel large‐scale biodiversity monitoring. This review takes a systematic approach to ask what degree of taxonomic resolution has so far been achieved in dual‐polarization ...

Actualización y ampliación de la distribución geográfica reproductiva de tres especies de golondrinas en la Patagonia (Progne tapera fusca, Tachycineta leucopyga y Hirundo rustica erythrogaster, Passeriformes: Hirundinidae) y aspectos observados durante el período de cría

open access: yesActa Zoológica Lilloana
Acerca del rango geográfico reproductivo de la avifauna silvestre, es común encontrar en la bibliografía alusiones, citas y mapeos, pero en proporción son escasos los registros respaldados con evidencia, algo similar ocurre con su biología reproductiva ...
