Round trips with meaning stopovers [PDF]

Proceedings of the 1st Workshop on Semantics-Driven Statistical Machine Translation (S2MT 2015), 2015
This paper describes taking parsed sentences, going to meaning representations (the stopover), and then back to parsed sentences (the round trip). Keeping to the same language tests the combined success of building meaning representations from parsed input and of generating parsed output.

Male post‐breeding movements and stopover habitat selection of an endangered short‐distance migrant, the Little Bustard Tetrax tetrax

Ibis, 2020
Migratory decisions, such as the selection of stopover sites, are critical for the success of post‐breeding migratory movements and subsequent survival.

Breeding latitude predicts timing but not rate of spring migration in a widespread migratory bird in South America [PDF]

, 2019
Identifying the processes that determine avian migratory strategies in different environmental contexts is imperative to understanding the constraints to survival and reproduction faced by migratory birds across the planet.

Long-Haul Tourist Preferences for Stopover Destination Visits

Journal of Travel Research, 2020
International long-haul travel represents a distinct market segment with great potential. Yet, empirical studies on the stopover destination visits are limited. The current research is based on a web survey conducted among residents in the United States,

The physiology of movement [PDF]

, 2020
Movement, from foraging to migration, is known to be under the influence of the environment. The translation of environmental cues to individual movement decision making is determined by an individual's internal state and anticipated to balance costs and

The Motus Wildlife Tracking System: a collaborative research network to enhance the understanding of wildlife movement

Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2017
We describe a new collaborative network, the Motus Wildlife Tracking System (Motus; https://motus.org), which is an international network of researchers using coordinated automated radio-telemetry arrays to study movements of small flying organisms ...

Full-service hotels, convenience stores, or fire escapes? Evaluating the functional role of stopover sites for Neotropical migrants following passage across the Gulf of Mexico in autumn

Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2023
Nearctic Neotropical migratory songbirds incur the highest mortality during migration. En-route, songbirds rely on a network of stopover sites to rest, refuel, and/or seek refuge during poor weather. Conservation strategies prioritize protection of sites

Insights from a decade of using the Motus network to track boreal bird species from Observatoire d’oiseaux de Tadoussac, Québec to temperate and tropical wintering grounds

Journal of Field Ornithology
Migration is the least-studied phase of the life cycle for many bird species, despite its importance to the full understanding of their life history traits and conservation. Between 2014 and 2023, we deployed tracking devices at Observatoire d’oiseaux de

Don’t mind if I do: Arctic humpback whales respond to winter foraging opportunities before migration

Royal Society Open Science, 2023
Migration patterns are fundamentally linked to the spatio-temporal distributions of prey. How migrating animals can respond to changes in their prey's distribution and abundance remains largely unclear.

Whooping crane use of riverine stopover sites

PLOS ONE, 2019
Migratory birds like endangered whooping cranes (Grus americana) require suitable nocturnal roost sites during twice annual migrations. Whooping cranes primarily roost in shallow surface water wetlands, ponds, and rivers. All these features have been greatly impacted by human activities, which present threats to the continued recovery of the species. A
