Foraging ecology mediates response to ecological mismatch during migratory stopover [PDF]
Ecosphere, 2019 Impacts of ecological mismatches should be most pronounced at points of the annual cycle when populations depend on a predictable, abundant, and aggregated food resource that changes in timing or distribution.

Immune function and blood parasite infections impact stopover ecology in passerine birds. [PDF]
Oecologia, 2018 Stopovers play a crucial role for the success of migrating animals and are key to optimal migration theory. Variation in refuelling rates, stopover duration and departure decisions among individuals has been related to several external factors. The physiological mechanisms shaping stopover ecology are, however, less well understood.

Spring Migration Stopover Ecology of Avian Influenza Virus Shorebird Hosts at Delaware Bay. [PDF]
Avian Dis, 2016 Although low pathogenicity avian influenza viruses (LPAIV) are detected in shorebirds at Delaware Bay annually, little is known about affected species habitat preferences or the movement patterns that might influence virus transmission and spread. During the 5-wk spring migration stopover period during 2007-2008, we conducted a radiotelemetry study of ...

The impact of an invasive exotic bush on the stopover ecology of migrant passerines [PDF]
Animal Biodiversity and Conservation, 2013 Migration is highly energy-demanding and birds often need to accumulate large fuel loads during this period. However, original habitat at stopover sites could be affected by invasive exotic plants outcompeting native vegetation.

Radio-telemetry observations of the first 650 km of the migration of Bar-tailed Godwits Limosa lapponica from the Wadden Sea to the Russian Arctic [PDF]
, 2002 In 1999 and 2000, 45 Bar-tailed Godwits Limosa lapponica were supplied with radio-transmitters during spring staging on the island Texel in the western Wadden Sea. With the use of Automatic Radio Tracking Stations (ARTS) on Texel and in south Sweden, and
