Migratory Movements and Home Ranges of Geographically Distinct Wintering Populations of a Soaring Bird [PDF]
Diversity, 2022 Migratory soaring birds exhibit spatiotemporal variation in their circannual movements. Nevertheless, it remains uncertain how different winter environments affect the circannual movement patterns of migratory soaring birds.

Seasonal effects of wind conditions on migration patterns of soaring American white pelican. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Energy and time expenditures are determinants of bird migration strategies. Soaring birds have developed migration strategies to minimize these costs, optimizing the use of all the available resources to facilitate their displacement.

Large- and Small-Scale Climate Influences Spring Migration Departure Probability of American White Pelicans [PDF]
Diversity, 2022 Endogenous (e.g., age and sex) and exogenous (e.g., climate and resource availability) factors influence avian migration phenology. However, little is known regarding the migration ecology of birds at the non-breeding grounds, including the American ...

Influenza A viruses in American White Pelican (Pelecanus erythrorhynchos). [PDF]
J Wildl Dis, 2010 The role of many wild waterbird species in the ecology and epidemiology of avian influenza viruses (AIV) remains unclear. We report the first isolation of AIV from American White Pelicans (Pelecanus erythrorhynchos; Pelecaniformes) in North America. Two H13N9 AIVs were isolated from hatchling birds in breeding colonies in Minnesota, USA, during 2007 ...

OCULAR FINDINGS AND SELECT OPHTHALMIC DIAGNOSTIC TESTS IN CAPTIVE AMERICAN WHITE PELICANS (PELECANUS ERYTHRORHYNCHOS). [PDF]
J Zoo Wildl Med, 2017 The aim of this study was to establish normal ophthalmic parameters for select diagnostic tests in American white pelicans (Pelecanuserythrorhynchos). Twenty-one zoo-housed American white pelicans were manually restrained for noninvasive ocular diagnostic testing and complete ophthalmic examination.

Seasonal variation and tracking of climate niche of a migratory bird [PDF]
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2022 Migratory birds inhabit different areas during breeding and non-breeding seasons. Depending on the time of the year, they may utilize different resources available in seasonal habitats, but also are subjected to changing climate regimes during their ...

Seasonal Habitat Selection by American White Pelicans [PDF]
Diversity, 2022 Resource utilization strategies of avian migrants are a major concern for conservation and management. Understanding seasonal habitat selection by migratory birds helps us explain the ongoing continental declines of migratory bird populations.
