recommendations! Published in 2022 at "Hormones and Behavior"

DOI: 10.1016/j.yhbeh.2022.105139

Abstract: Twice a year, billions of birds take on drastic physiological and behavioural changes to migrate between breeding and wintering areas. On migration, most passerine birds regularly stop over along the way to rest and refuel.… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2021 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-81274-9

Abstract: What determines why some birds migrate and others do not? This question is fundamental to understanding how migratory systems are responding to environmental changes, but the causes of individual migratory behaviours have proven difficult to… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2022 at "Biology Letters"

DOI: 10.1098/rsbl.2022.0176

Abstract: Our understanding of state-dependent behaviour is reliant on identifying physiological indicators of condition. Telomeres are of growing interest for understanding behaviour as they capture differences in biological state and residual lifespan. To understand the significance… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/brv.13171

Abstract: Although decades of research have deepened our understanding of the proximate triggers and ultimate drivers of migrations for a range of taxa, how populations establish migrations remains a mystery. However, recent studies have begun to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/mec.16724

Abstract: Recent ecotypic differentiation provides unique opportunities to investigate the genomic basis and architecture of local adaptation, while offering insights into how species form and persist. Sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) exhibit migratory and resident (“kokanee”) ecotypes,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1139/cjz-2025-0015

Abstract: Resolving the migratory behaviour and population dynamics of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar Linnaeus, 1758) in the Nastapoka River, a unique northern population located along the eastern shore of Hudson Bay (Quebec), is critical for population… read more here.

Age-related changes in migratory behaviour within the first annual cycle of a passerine bird

recommendations! Published in 2022 at "PLoS ONE"

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0273686

Abstract: First time migrants (juveniles hereafter) of many species migrate without specific knowledge of non-breeding locations, but experience may aid adults in timing and route decisions because they can migrate more efficiently to their previous non-breeding… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0281827

Abstract: Large gulls are generalist predators that play an important role in Arctic food webs. Describing the migratory patterns and phenology of these predators is essential to understanding how Arctic ecosystems function. However, from all six… read more here.
