Nest-Site Characteristics and Nesting Success of the Chestnut Thrush

Ornithological Science, 2018
Nest-site characteristics may affect the daily survival rate of avian nests. We monitored the nests of Chestnut Thrush Turdus rubrocanus breeding in an agricultural landscape near the Lianhuashan Natural Reserve (central China) during the breeding seasons of 2013 and 2014.

Ecological analyses of nesting success in evening grosbeaks

Oecologia, 1989
We studied the nesting success of Evening Grosbeaks (Coccothraustes vespertinus) inhabiting two areas of the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains of Colorado from 1983-1987. Sixty-four nests were followed during building, incubating, brooding, and fledging; 54.7% were successful (young fledged). The largest number of nests failed during incubation. Nests

Nest-site selection and nesting success of Eurasian Nuthatch in China

Russian Journal of Ecology, 2015
The nest-site selection and nesting success of Eurasian Nuthatch (Sitta europaea) were studied two habitats, suburb of Beijing and Zuojia Natural Reserve, in northeast China from 2004 to 2008. Nuthatches in the study area bred mostly in the deciduous stands.

Validity of Using Artificial Nests to Assess Duck-Nest Success

The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1998
Artificial nests have been used in numerous studies of nest success because they can provide adequate sample sizes and be placed in accordance with experimental designs. However, the critical assumption that a strong linear relation exists between success of artificial and natural nests has rarely been tested.

Ruddy Duck Nesting Success: Do Nest Characteristics Deter Nest Predation?

The Condor, 1999
It has been hypothesized that proximity to edges, timing of nesting, nest concealment or inaccessibility, working singly or in concert, may explain variable nesting success of birds, but results have been mixed. I tested these hypotheses by determining fates and measuring nest-site features of 233 Ruddy Duck (Oxyura jamaicensis) nests near Minnedosa ...

Nest-Site Characteristics and Nesting Success of the Greater Pewee in Arizona

The Southwestern Naturalist, 2000
We provide information on nest-site characteristics and nesting success of the greater pewee, Contopus pertinax, in the Huachuca Mountains of southeastern Arizona. Primary breeding habitats include montane pine-oak forests and sycamore or cottonwood riparian forests.

Factors affecting blue goose nesting success

Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1971
Blue geese at McConnell River, N.W.T., lost 20% of eggs, mostly late in incubation. Parasitic jaegers and herring gulls were attracted to the colony and were efficient at finding eggs although geese defended their nests strongly. Since egg loss could only occur in the absence of both geese, jaegers, and gulls acted as scavengers rather than predators.

Nested perceptions of project success

2010
Taking a cognitive approach, this paper explores individual team memberʼs perceptions of a construction project and identifies prominent processes in the project lifecycle which contribute to the perceptions of success. Approached through a case investigation, this study compares three building conversion projects.
