Urban Wetland Wildlife health Woodland Search Reset Temperature sensitivity of breeding phenology and reproductive output of the Common Redstart (Phoenicurus phoenicurus) Author: Published: 2024 One of the most obvious ways in which birds have responded to climate change is by shifting the timing of their breeding and migration. In spring, many long-distance migratory species are now arriving earlier than in the past, and most species are also nesting earlier than then used to, particularly in warmer years. But has this led to a mismatch in the timing of the breeding season and the peak availability of key food resources for breeding birds and their young, leading to a reduction in breeding success and eventual population declines? 20.11.24 Papers View on journal website How to make land use policy decisions: Integrating science and economics to deliver connected climate, biodiversity, and food objectives Author: Published: 2024 13.11.24 Papers View on journal website A critical appraisal of 40 years of avian collision risk modelling: How have we got here and where do we go next?
