A monitoring framework for assessing threats to nonbreeding shorebirds on the Pacific Coast of the Americas

Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2020
Many shorebirds (Order: Charadriiformes; Family: Charadriidae, Recurvirostridae, Scolopacidae, Haematopodidae, Jacanidae) are highly migratory, traversing thousands of kilometers between high latitude breeding and low latitude nonbreeding sites. In doing
