Yearling proportion correlates with habitat structure in a boreal forest landbird community [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Landbird vital rates, such as productivity and adult survivorship, can be estimated by modeling mist-netting capture data. The proportion in which an adult breeding bird is 1 year of age (a “yearling”), however, has been studied only minimally in a few ...
