DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9146
Abstract: Abstract Wind has a significant yet complex effect on bird migration speed. With prevailing south wind, overall migration is generally faster in spring than in autumn. However, studies on the difference in airspeed between seasons… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00442-019-04576-w
Abstract: Honeybees ( Apis mellifera ) and bumblebees ( Bombus spp.) often undergo exploitative competition for shared floral resources, which can alter their foraging behaviour and flower choice, even causing competitive exclusion. This may be strongest… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10493-019-00341-z
Abstract: Seasonal bird (Aves) migration between breeding and wintering areas, often located on different continents, can facilitate the spreading of tick species (Acari: Ixodida) and of tick-borne pathogens. The aim of the study was to analyse… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11676-017-0582-5
Abstract: AbstractThe taiga coniferous forests of the Siberian region are the main carbon sinks in the forest ecosystems. Quantitatively, the size of the carbon accumulation is determined by the photosynthetic productivity, which is strongly influenced by… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.rsma.2021.101811
Abstract: Abstract Understanding relationships between the spatiotemporal variability of fishery resources and marine environmental variables forms the basis of effective development and utilization of the northern South China Sea (NSCS) fishery resources. Decapterus maruadsi is one… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ttbdis.2019.01.007
Abstract: Presently, it is uncertain to what extent seasonal migrating birds contribute to the introduction of ticks and tick-associated pathogens in Denmark. To quantify this phenomenon, we captured birds during the spring and autumn migration at… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ygcen.2019.04.008
Abstract: Birds face many challenges during seasonal migrations and must make important decisions about whether to accelerate, maintain, or delay travel to their final destinations. Spring migration is likely more challenging than autumn migration as spring… read more here.
