Delineating ecologically-distinct groups for annual cycle management of a declining shorebird
1. Patterns of migratory connectivity are increasingly used to understand and manage threats throughout the annual cycle of migratory species. Strong migratory connectivity refers to when individuals from different populations remain spatially separated across the annual cycle, which may expose populations to unique sets of threats and conditions that cause differential population trends.
Delineating ecologically distinct groups for annual cycle management of a declining shorebird
1 INTRODUCTION The spatial structure of migratory populations is dynamic as individuals move among the various locations of their annual cycle. Understanding the resultant pattern, known as migratory connectivity, can provide important insights into the factors structuring underlying population dynamics (Marra et al., 2018; Webster et al., 2002).
Keystone effects of prairie dogs (Cynomys spp.) on grassland birds: Current knowledge and future directions
1 INTRODUCTION Keystone species shape the occurrence, composition, life history, and demography of bird communities (Augustine & Baker, 2013; Boyce et al., 2021; Buyandelger & Otgonbayar, 2022; Feldman et al., 2023; Lai & Smith, 2003; Zhao et al., 2020), and restoration of keystone species can benefit bird populations (Boyce et al., 2022; Griebel et al., 1998; Nummi & Holopainen, 2014; Powell, 2006).

GPS Tracking Technology Allows Scientists to Fly With Curlews on Their Epic Migrations
Researchers are unraveling the mystery of how migratory birds achieve their amazing flights How do you study a species that travels thousands of miles, using a mode of transportation that is difficult or impossible for humans? This is the tricky reality of studying migratory birds whose incredible journeys happen far from the ground. Fortunately, modern technology is helping us learn more about the phenomenon of their migration.
