Remote SensingSeasonal dynamics in wetland landscapes are closely associated with habitat availability and are likely to influence the spatial organization and diversity of waterbird communities. However, most existing studies rely on static land-cover representations

, 2017 To reverse declining population trends for migratory birds, a full annual and life cycle conservation approach is necessary. However, two life history stages of relatively high mortality—the migratory and the post-fledging periods—are not well-understood

Effects of food availability on fledging condition and post-fledging survival in king penguin chicks
, 1997 Effects of summer food shortage on king penguin Aptenodytes patagonicus chicks were studied at South Georgia. Two cohorts were compared, fledging in the austral summers of 1992 (n = 32) and 1994 (n = 33) when availability of food was judged good and poor,

Separating the Costs and Benefits of Employee Turnover: A Theory‐Driven Method and Applications
Industrial Relations: A Journal of Economy and Society, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Employee turnover is costly, but it may also benefit performance through improving job‐worker match quality. Existing studies estimate only the net turnover‐performance relationship, ignoring benefits and biasing cost estimates. We develop a theory‐driven method that separately identifies operational costs and match‐quality benefits of ...

Animal BiotelemetryBackground In birds, the onset of dispersal is the transition point between the end of the post-fledging dependence period (PFDP) and the beginning of natal dispersal. Identifying this key moment in an individual’s life cycle is crucial for understanding

International Social Science Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Across much of the Global South and increasingly in the Global North, authoritarian populist imagination blurs boundaries between legality and illegality, weaponising law to suppress dissent while tolerating violence by allied actors. This imagination establishes a symbolic boundary mechanism between punitive/eliminative violence for political

Post-hatching development of the remote-tactile bill-tip organ in precocial shorebirds (Scolopacidae). [PDF]
J AnatJuvenile scolopacid shorebirds possess well‐developed osteological correlates of tactile bill‐tip organs, indicating sensory systems for remote‐touch foraging are present from early life. Ontogenetic changes in bill‐tip morphology suggest ecological specialisation and interspecific variation develop later, after fledging in these highly precocial ...
