RELATIONSHIPS AMONG NORTH AMERICAN SONGBIRD TRENDS, HABITAT FRAGMENTATION, AND LANDSCAPE OCCUPANCY<sup>*</sup>
Fragmentation of breeding habitat has been hypothesized as a cause of population declines in forest-nesting migratory birds. Negative correlations between the degree of fragment...
Increased reproductive effort results in male-biased offspring sex ratio: an experimental study in a species with reversed sexual size dimorphism
Adaptive sex-ratio theory predicts that parents should overproduce the more beneficial offspring sex. Based on a recent experimental study of lesser black-backed gulls, we teste...
HOW WELL CAN WE MODEL NUMBERS AND PRODUCTIVITY OF SALTMARSH SHARP-TAILED SPARROWS (<i>AMMODRAMUS CAUDACUTUS</i>) USING HABITAT FEATURES?
Habitat models are often used to describe species distributions, but they need to be tested to evaluate their predictive performance. We investigated the importance of model eva...
The Social Organisation of Antelope in Relation To Their Ecology
Abstract The types of social organisation displayed by the African antelope species have been assigned in this paper to five classes, distinguished largely by the strategies use...
INFLUENCE OF FOREST COVER ON THE MOVEMENTS OF FOREST BIRDS: A HOMING EXPERIMENT
