Breeding populations of Marbled Godwits and Willets have high annual survival and strong site fidelity to managed wetlands. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2023 AbstractThe Prairie Pothole Region of central Canada supports a diverse community of breeding waterbirds, but many species have declining populations and the demographic mechanisms driving the declines remain unknown. We conducted a 7‐year field study during 1995–2001 to investigate the demographic performance of Marbled Godwits (Limosa fedoa) and ...

Marbled Godwit Habitat Selection in the Northern Prairie Region [PDF]
The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1984 Marbled godwit (Limosa fedoa) wetland and upland habitat use and selection data from eastcentral North Dakota demonstrate that godwits frequently used and preferred short, sparse to moderately vegetated sites and open water or bare soil along wetland shorelines.

First Confirmed Breeding of the Marbled Godwit, <em>Limosa fedoa</em>, in Québec [PDF]
The Canadian Field-Naturalist, 2007 The objectives of this study were to confirm breeding of the Marbled Godwit (Limosa fedoa) in Rupert Bay, on the Québec coast of James Bay, and to assess population abundance. Nest search was conducted 17–20 June 2003, using several techniques. Two nests were found in the high marsh of Cabbage Willows Bay: these are the first confirmed breeding records

Winter population trends and environmental drivers for three species of temperate shorebirds
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2023 Current assessments indicate that populations of several species of North American shorebirds are declining rapidly. However, limited monitoring programs south of the U.S.-Mexico border have precluded assessments of the conservation status of temperate ...

Upland Nesting Prairie Shorebirds: Use of Managed Wetland Basins and Accuracy of Breeding Surveys
Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2006 Wetlands in southern Alberta are often managed to benefit waterfowl and cattle production. Effects on other species usually are not examined. I determined the effect of managed wetlands on upland-nesting shorebirds in southern Alberta by comparing ...

Off-road sampling reveals a different grassland bird community than roadside sampling: implications for survey design and estimates to guide conservation [PDF]
, 2014 Grassland bird species continue to decline steeply across North America. Road-based surveys such as the North American Breeding Bird Survey (BBS) are often used to estimate trends and population sizes and to build species distribution models for ...
