Habitat‐specific behavior, growth rate, and survival of piping plover chicks in New Jersey, USA

Ecosphere, Volume 12, Issue 10, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Anthropogenic disturbance has been demonstrated to affect the behavior of beach‐nesting birds, yet the energetic consequences of recreational activities have received less attention. Because precocial chicks are often displaced as a result of disturbance events, lower access to food may lead to lower fitness.
