Brood parasitic birds lay their eggs in the nests of others, sparing themselves the expense of rearing their own young. The resulting coevolutionary arms race includes sophisticated defenses by ...

Combined, these two approaches allow for a better understanding of the role that visual ecology plays in the evolution of avian communication and recognition systems, especially in the study of ...

Alterations in prey abundance due to increased salinity may alter the ability of the GSL to support large avian populations. Aldrich, T. W., and D. S. Paul. 2002. Avian ecology of Great Salt Lake.

Researchers at the University of Granada and the Max Planck Institute for Biological Intelligence have demonstrated a link ...

Our field sites provide an exceptional opportunity to investigate methods of avian research, and the vital roles that birds play in forest systems. We will explore how we are all linked to this ...

World Sparrow Day, celebrated every March 20, highlights the need to protect sparrows due to their crucial ecological role. Sparrow populations have declined from factors like urbanisation, pesticides ...

Michelle Eshleman, In Progress. Ph.D. Entomology and Wildlife Ecology. Anthropogenic influences on avian migration 17. Amanda Crandall, 2023. M.S. Wildlife Ecology. Factors influencing spatial pattern ...

I’m most interested in the behavioral ecology and evolutionary biology of avian species in the face of climate change and rapid urbanization. In particular, I want to understand how organisms adapt ...

“What is the effect of putting out additional food on the abundance or diversity of birds, or even on their breeding ecology and condition?” According to members of the UTSA Smith Lab of Avian Ecology ...

Japan’s bird banding data, collected over decades, has largely remained underutilized in avian movement research. Researchers from Japan have now shown that applying advanced statistical methods to ...

2020. Genomic regions underlying metabolic and neuronal signaling pathways are temporally consistent outliers in a moving avian hybrid zone. Evolution. 74: 1498-1513. Taylor SA, Larson EL. 2019.

The team’s project, “Seeding Success for Underrepresented Students: Informal STEM Learning through Community Science, Avian Ecology and Ethnic Studies,” is a collaborative community- and place-based ...
