SITE FIDELITY IN HIGH ARCTIC BREEDING WADERS

Ostrich, 1994
Summary Tomkovich, P.S. & Soloviev, M.Yu. 1994. Site fidelity in High Arctic breeding waders. Ostrich 65:174-180. The return rate and fluctuations in density between years were determined for colour-marked populations of Grey Plover Pluvialis squatarola. Little Stint Calidris minuta, Curlew Sandpiper C. ferruginea, Sanderling C.

Site fidelity of intertidal fish to rockpools

Journal of Applied Ichthyology, 2017
Gobius paganellus, Lipophrys pholis and Coryphoblennius galerita are wide‐spread intertidal fish that spend their earlier life stages in rock pools, and yet very little is known about their site fidelity behaviour. For these species, fidelity to rockpools may result in increased fitness costs in a predicted scenario of warmer sea water, due to the low ...

Site Fidelity of Least Terns in California

The Condor, 1988
The degree to which Least Terns (Sterna antillarum) exhibit year-to-year fidelity to particular colony sites, as well as fidelity toward their natal colony sites, was examined using banding recoveries obtained in California. Individuals had high rates of return to colony sites where they had nested during the preceding year; of those few birds that ...

Breeding success, nest site fidelity and mate fidelity in the European Storm-petrel

Seabird Journal, 2020
The European Storm-petrel Hydrobates pelagicus is a monogamous and long-lived species with a low reproductive rate. Its nest sites are located in natural cavities under rocks or in burrows excavated by other species. Data obtained in the Molène archipelago, western France, have been analysed to study nest site fidelity and mate fidelity, and to study ...

SITE FIDELITY, TERRITORY FIDELITY, AND NATAL PHILOPATRY IN WILLOW FLYCATCHERS (EMPIDONAX TRAILLII)

The Auk, 2004
Abstract I investigated the causes and consequences of adult breeding-site fidelity, territory fidelity, and natal philopatry in Willow Flycatchers (Empidonax traillii) in southeastern Oregon over a 10-year period, testing the general hypothesis that fidelity and dispersal distances are influenced by previous breeding performance.

Site Fidelity: Rock Pigeons and Refugees

Swamphen: a Journal of Cultural Ecology (ASLEC-ANZ), 2014
This paper presents a series of multi-disciplinary artworks developed from collaborations with local Tasmanian pigeon fanciers and homing associations. The artworks explore the desire to locate habitat in unstable environments, exposing bespoke ecosystems and visualising agency within a locational / relational feedback loop.

Site fidelity and homing behaviour of intertidal sculpins revisited

Journal of Fish Biology, 2016
To assess the repeatability of an ecological study, this study both partially replicates and extends a previous study on the site fidelity and homing ability of two abundant and ecologically important species of rocky intertidal sculpin fishes, Oligocottus maculosus and Oligocottus snyderi.

Site fidelity in predictable and unpredictable habitats

Evolutionary Ecology, 1993
Site fidelity, the tendency to return to a previously occupied location, has been observed in numerous species belonging to at least three phyla. In this paper I develop a general model using dynamic programming to investigate conditions under which fidelity to a previously occupied territory will be advantageous. The results predict that site fidelity

Stopover-Site Fidelity at a Near-Coastal Banding Site in Georgia

Southeastern Naturalist, 2009
Abstract We documented one Seiurus noveboracensis (Northern Waterthrush) exhibiting stopover-site fidelity by returning to a near-coastal stopover site at the Butler Island Auxiliary Station (BIAS) on the Altamaha Waterfowl Management Area in southeast Georgia during banding operations from 1995–2000.

Site Fidelity of Shrubland and Forest Birds

The Condor, 2009
Abstract. In eastern North America, most early-successional woody habitats are ephemeral and succeed to forests within a few decades. Consequently, for shrubland birds patches of habitat are generally suitable for breeding for only a short time. This has led some authors to suggest that shrubland birds should show little fidelity to former breeding ...
