Impact of Nest-Site Selection on Nest Success and Nest Temperature in Natural and Disturbed Habitats
Ecology, 2002 Nest-site selection behavior is a maternal effect that contributes to offspring survival and variation in offspring phenotypes that are subject to natural selection. We investigated nest-site selection and its consequences in the snapping turtle, Chelydra ser- pentina, in northwestern Illinois.

Rol de la cronología de anidación y las características parentales en el éxito reproductivo del piquero de Nazca (Sula granti) en Isla de la Plata, Ecuador [PDF]
, 2017 Reproductive success in Sula granti could be influenced by nesting initiation timing, body condition and sexual size dimorphism (SSD). The objective of this investigation is to establish if in S. granti reproductive success is related with nesting timing,
