Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2025.Abstract Severe weather events are more frequently impacting wildlife, especially in climate‐sensitive ecosystems like coastal habitats. A particularly vulnerable stage for migratory species is juvenile movement between natal and non‐breeding habitats. Globally, coastal habitats represent critical stopover or staging sites during postbreeding migration
