Cross‐continental migratory connectivity and spatiotemporal migratory patterns in the great reed warbler

Journal of Avian Biology, 2016
Migratory connectivity describes to which degree different breeding populations have distinct (non‐overlapping) non‐breeding sites. Uncovering the level of migratory connectivity is crucial for effective conservation actions and for understanding of the ...

Migratory behavior and connectivity revealed in a secretive Neotropical migratory songbird, the Swainson’s Warbler

Journal of Field Ornithology, 2022
Improving our understanding of migratory behaviors and connectivity is fundamental for identifying limiting factors and drivers of population decline. With advances in miniaturized tracking technology, we are now able to study these critical aspects of ...

Lake sturgeon behavioral diversity in the Laurentian great lakes: migratory patterns across populations and habitats [PDF]

Movement Ecology
Background Characterizing the diversity of migration behaviors from the individual to the population level is essential for understanding how organisms respond to environmental variation and how these responses affect survival and habitat use.

Migratory Connectivity at High Latitudes: Sabine's Gulls (Xema sabini) from a Colony in the Canadian High Arctic Migrate to Different Oceans. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
The world's Arctic latitudes are some of the most recently colonized by birds, and an understanding of the migratory connectivity of circumpolar species offers insights into the mechanisms of range expansion and speciation.

Migratory connectivity and population-specific migration routes in a long-distance migratory bird. [PDF]

Proc Biol Sci, 2014
Knowledge about migratory connectivity, the degree to which individuals from the same breeding site migrate to the same wintering site, is essential to understand processes affecting populations of migrants throughout the annual cycle.

Winter connectivity and leapfrog migration in a migratory passerine

Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Technological advances in migratory tracking tools have revealed a remarkable diversity in migratory patterns. One such pattern is leapfrog migration, where individuals that breed further north migrate to locations further south.

Migration strategies, connectivity and corridor features of the partial migrant little bustard (Tetrax tetrax) across the Iberian Peninsula [PDF]

Movement Ecology
The study of migration ecology is crucial for understanding the factors and pressures affecting migratory species. Here, we studied the migratory ecology of the little bustard (Tetrax tetrax), a steppe bird that has suffered a sharp decline over recent ...

Estimating migratory connectivity of birds when re-encounter probabilities are heterogeneous. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2014
AbstractUnderstanding the biology and conducting effective conservation of migratory species requires an understanding of migratory connectivity – the geographic linkages of populations between stages of the annual cycle. Unfortunately, for most species, we are lacking such information.

Annual migratory movement, apparent molt-migration, migration schedule, and diffuse migratory connectivity of Hermit Warblers

Avian Conservation and Ecology
Quantifying migratory connectivity and annual movement is key to sound conservation planning for migratory species. Hermit Warblers ( Setophaga occidentalis ) are an endemic-breeding species in the Pacific Northwest that winters in Mexico and the Central
