Refinements in adipose tissue biopsy collection in shorebirds: effect on pain, wound healing, and mass gain

Journal of Field Ornithology, 2023
Non-lethal methods to sample adipose tissues from fat depots in small birds are highly valuable as a time integrated sample matrix for ecotoxicology and ecophysiology research.

Bird migration in space and time: chain migration by Eurasian curlew Numenius arquata arquata along the East Atlantic Flyway

Journal of Avian Biology, 2022
Migration patterns in birds vary in space and time. Spatial patterns include chain, leapfrog and telescopic migration. Temporal patterns such as migration duration, number, and duration of stopovers may vary according to breeding latitude, sex, and ...

Hatching failure and embryo mortality in endangered populations of Eurasian Curlew (Numenius arquata)

Ibis, EarlyView.
Hatching failure represents a significant and growing barrier to reproductive success in threatened birds and yet is often poorly understood. Populations of the Eurasian Curlew Numenius arquata in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland have experienced significant declines over recent decades, and low breeding productivity is a major barrier to ...

Continental-scale decreases in shorebird populations in Australia [PDF]

, 2016
Decreases in shorebird populations are increasingly evident worldwide, especially in the East Asian-Australasian Flyway (EAAF). To arrest these declines, it is important to understand the scale of both the problem and the solutions.

The effects of playbacks of anthropogenic noise on the anti‐predator behaviour of Pacific sand lance, Ammodytes personatus

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Noise from human activities has increased and been shown to negatively impact marine animals. Marine mammals and fish are vulnerable to anthropogenic noise because they rely on sound to communicate, find food, avoid predators and sense their environment. Forage fish are small schooling pelagic fish, important to many predators and instrumental

Rapid responses of marsh birds to large‐scale tidal wetland restoration in California's Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Tidal wetland restoration is widely used to recover ecosystem function in modified estuaries, yet uncertainty remains about how quickly wildlife communities respond. Early trajectories are central to evaluating restoration success, guiding adaptive management, and building ecosystem resilience in engineered landscapes. Marsh birds

Assessing working lands as habitat for disturbance‐dependent birds using autonomous recording units

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Working lands can provide habitat for declining disturbance‐dependent birds, such as Bachman's Sparrow (Peucaea aestivalis) and Northern Bobwhite (Colinus virginianus), but it remains unclear whether restoration following intensive land use (e.g. surface mining) yields habitat comparable to less intensive land uses (e.g.

Casco Bay Shorebird Monitoring Project: Year Four Progress Report [PDF]

, 2012
This document provides a summary of shorebird-use during the fourth field season of the Casco Bay Shorebird Monitoring Project. Relative to other coastal areas in Maine, Casco Bay shorebird habitats are particularly vulnerable to degradation, given the ...

The Influence of Migration Timing and Local Conditions on Reproductive Timing in Arctic‐Breeding Birds

Ecology and Evolution
For birds breeding in the Arctic, nest success is affected by the timing of nest initiation, which is partially determined by local conditions such as snow cover.
