Quantifying the strength of migratory connectivity [PDF]
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2017 Abstract Technological advancements have spurred rapid growth in the study of migratory connectivity, the linkage of individuals and populations between seasons of the annual cycle. The strength of migratory connectivity is a measure of the co‐occurrence of populations throughout the annual cycle and can be represented by a correlation of the ...

A multi-method approach to delineate and validate migratory corridors [PDF]
, 2017 Context: Managers are faced with numerous methods for delineating wildlife movement corridors, and often must make decisions with limited data. Delineated corridors should be robust to different data and models.

Fine-scale population structure and asymmetrical dispersal in an obligate salt-marsh passerine, the Saltmarsh Sparrow (Ammodramus Caudacutus) [PDF]
, 2012 Understanding the spatial scale of gene flow can yield valuable insight into the ecology of an organism and guide conservation strategies. Fine-scale genetic structure is uncommon in migratory passerines because of their high vagility and presumed high ...

Migration ecology of western gray catbirds
Movement Ecology, 2021 Background For many songbirds in North America, we lack movement details about the full annual cycle, notably outside the breeding season. Understanding how populations are linked spatially between breeding and overwintering periods (migratory ...

Migratory pathways and connectivity in Asian houbara bustards: evidence from 15 years of satellite tracking. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Information on migratory pathways and connectivity is essential to understanding population dynamics and structure of migrant species. Our manuscript uses a unique dataset, the fruit of 103 individual Asian houbara bustards captured on their breeding ...

Advances in linking wintering migrant birds to their breeding-ground origins using combined analyses of genetic and stable isotope markers. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 An enduring problem in avian ecology and conservation is linking breeding and wintering grounds of migratory species. As migratory species and populations vary in the degree to which individuals from distinct breeding locales mix on stop-over sites and ...
