Influence of temperatures during the nestling period on post-fledging survival of great tit Parus major in a Mediterranean habitat [PDF]
Journal of Avian Biology, 2007 Survival during the first year is one of the most important factors determining fitness in birds. Birds have poor thermoregulatory abilities during the nestling period when the plumage is not fully developed, thus temperature during the nestling period is a serious candidate to affect post‐fledging survival, although it has been ...

Growth, fledging success and post-fledging survival of juvenile oystercatchers Haematopus ostralegus
, 1995 We studied the consequences of differences in growth rate on the subsequent survival of Oystercatcher Haematopus ostralegus chicks. Fledging success increased sharply with growth rate, from zero in chicks growing at less than 6 g per day to about 85% in ...

Looking for Trouble: Pre‐Intervention Monitoring in Human and AI Driver Training
Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.We compare two types of situations involving monitoring of car driving: a driving instructor overseeing a trainee driver and a safety driver overseeing the performance of autonomous vehicle (AV) software. Our focus is on instances of monitoring that precede (1) interventions that are aborted before impacting the driving and (2) actual interventions on ...

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.Common cuckoo nestlings from different populations show varying degrees of mimicry of warbler begging calls, with the Yongnianwa population being the most accurate and the Zhalong population the least. Overall, these cuckoos employ a dual strategy: they conservatively mimic the high‐frequency components of host calls while adaptively adjusting their ...
