Assessing the hydroregime of an archetypal riverine wet meadow in the central Great Plains using time‐lapse imagery

Ecosphere, Volume 12, Issue 11, November 2021., 2021
Abstract Wet meadows are a declining and increasingly degraded ecosystem type. They contribute numerous ecosystem services, including nutrient cycling, water storage, and filtration, and provision of wildlife habitat, particularly for wetland‐dependent species such as the Whooping Crane (Grus americana). Conservation and restoration of wet meadows rely

Flexible timing of annual movements across consistently used sites by Marbled Godwits breeding in Alaska [PDF]

The Auk, 2019
AbstractThe study of avian movement has detailed a spectrum of strategies for the timing and use of sites throughout the annual cycle, from near randomness to complete consistency. New tracking devices now permit the repeated tracking of individual animals throughout the annual cycle, detailing previously unappreciated levels of variation within ...

Power source, data retrieval method, and attachment type affect success of dorsally mounted tracking tag deployments in 37 species of shorebirds

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 6, November 2025.
Animal‐borne trackers are commonly used to study bird movements, including in long‐distance migrants such as shorebirds. Selecting a tracker and attachment method can be daunting, and methodological advancements often have been made by trial and error and conveyed by word of mouth.

Climate‐related drivers of migratory bird health in the south‐central USA

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 3, Page 1272-1293, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Migratory birds are species of concern that play important ecological roles while also supporting recreational opportunities for the hunting and birdwatching public. Direct and indirect effects of climate variability, extremes, and change on migratory bird health manifest at the individual, population, species, and community levels.
