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 ...

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

Migratory connectivity in the context of differential migration. [PDF]
Biol Lett, 2018 Understanding how breeding populations are spatially and temporarily associated with one another over the annual cycle has important implications for population dynamics. Migratory connectivity typically assumes that populations mix randomly; yet, in many species and populations, sex-, age- or other subgroups migrate separately, and/or spend the non ...

Migratory connectivity in the Loggerhead Shrike (Lanius ludovicianus). [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2018 AbstractAimWe combine genetic and stable isotope data to quantify migration patterns in Loggerhead Shrike (Lanius ludovicianus), a species of conservation concern in North America, to assess how connectivity differs and impacts population evolution, ecology, and conservation.LocationWe sampled shrikes across the majority of their nonbreeding range ...

Dynamics of fish larvae recruitment in the hydrographic basin of the Paraguay River in western Brazil [PDF]
Neotropical Ichthyology, 2023 The conservation of fish assemblages depends on the longitudinal and lateral connectivity between riverine habitats, in particular during the breeding season and the initial development.

Optimal conservation of migratory species. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2007 BACKGROUND: Migratory animals comprise a significant portion of biodiversity worldwide with annual investment for their conservation exceeding several billion dollars. Designing effective conservation plans presents enormous challenges. Migratory species

A quantitative measure of migratory connectivity [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2009 The study of the extent of the connection between areas where populations of birds breed and areas where they winter has flourished in recent years mainly thanks to the development of new techniques, but also due to traditional ringing and recovery schemes, which allow tracking of individuals or populations linking wintering and breeding distributions.

Differential population trends align with migratory connectivity in an endangered shorebird
Conservation Science and Practice, 2022 Migratory connectivity describes the extent to which migratory species' populations are connected throughout the annual cycle. While recognized as critical for understanding the population dynamics of migratory species and conserving them, empirical ...
