Ecological Causes and Consequences of Intratropical Migration in Temperate-breeding Migratory Birds
Download2016-01-01
Stutchbury, Bridget J.M., Siddiqui, Raafia, Fraser, Kevin C., Applegate, Kelly, Hvenegaard, Glen T., Mammenga, Paul, Mickle, Nannette, Pearman, Myrna, Ray, James D., Savage, Anne, Shaheen, Tim, Zuk, Marlene
New discoveries from direct tracking of temperate-breeding passerines show that intra-tropical migration (ITM) is common in a growing number of species which has important implications for understanding their evolution of migration, population dynamics, and conservation needs. Our large sample...

Projecting boreal bird responses to climate change considering uncertainty, refugia, vegetation lags, and post-glaciation history
DownloadSpring 2016
Often referred to as North America’s bird nursery, the boreal forest biome provides a productive environment for breeding birds, supporting high species diversity and bird numbers. These birds are likely to shift their distributions northward in response to rapid climate change over the next...

Short-Term Effects of Timber Harvest on Abundance, Territory Characteristics, and Pairing Success of Ovenbirds in Riparian Buffer Strips
Download2000
Hannon, Susan, J., Lambert, J. Daniel
In managed forests, riparian buffer strips typically are maintained to protect water quality. If properly designed, buffer strips also may act as wildlife reserves. However, forest managers have lacked the information to develop standards for buffer strips to maximize benefits for wildlife...

Toward conservation of Canada's boreal forest avifauna: Design and application of ecological models at continental extents
Download2010
Cumming, S. G., Bayne, E., Schmiegelow, F. K. A., Fontaine, T., Song, S. J., Lefevre, K.
Abstract: Human development is increasing pressure on North America's mainly intact boreal forest. We outline the need for a comprehensive synthesis of existing data and for effective scientific tools to support conservation of this biome and of the birds that depend on it. To illustrate how...
