A comparison of behavioral observations with genetic analyses of the Hawaiian Stilt on Molokaʻi revealed some evidence of conspecific parasitism, potential extra‐pair paternity, and inbreeding, although most observed family groups clustered together genetically, suggesting these alternative tactics may be relatively rare.

Using an optimized MaxEnt model integrated with the HSI‐InVEST habitat quality model, we predicted that suitable habitats for the Oriental Stork in China will expand (0.22%–7.82%) and shift northeastward under future climate scenarios, with altitude and precipitation identified as key drivers.

Colonial waterbirds depend on wetlands for breeding, yet the relative importance of hydrological conditions and short‐term climatic variability remains poorly understood in monsoon‐dependent systems. Using three years of data from nine wetlands in southern India, we found that wetland water extent was the strongest predictor of nesting arrival, colony ...

Abstract Local environmental factors are considered primary drivers of lake zooplankton community assembly, yet the roles of landscape factors and dispersal processes remain underexplored. We examined 78 hardwater lakes across the northern Great Plains (Canada) to evaluate how local (water chemistry, morphometric, and catchment characteristics ...
