      Conservation status and management priorities are often informed by population trends. Trend estimates can be derived from population surveys or models, but both methods are associated with sources of uncertainty. Many ...
    • Geographic variation in the intensity of warming and phenological mismatch between Arctic shorebirds and invertebrates 

      Kwon, Eunbi; Weiser, Emily L.; Lanctot, Richard B.; Brown, Stephen C.; Gates, Heather R.; Gilchrist, Grant; Kendall, Steve J.; Lank, David B.; Liebezeit, Joseph R.; McKinnon, Laura; Nol, Erica; Payer, David C.; Rausch, Jennie; Rinella, Daniel J.; Saalfeld, Sarah T.; Senner, Nathan R.; Smith, Paul A.; Ward, David; Wisseman, Robert W.; Sandercock, Brett (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Responses to climate change can vary across functional groups and trophic levels, leading to a temporal decoupling of trophic interactions or “phenological mismatches.” Despite a growing number of single-species studies ...
    • Predictors of invertebrate biomass and rate of advancement of invertebrate phenology across eight sites in the North American Arctic 

      Shaftel, Rebecca; Rinella, Daniel J.; Kwon, Eunbi; Brown, Stephen C.; Gates, H. River; Kendall, Steve; Lank, David B.; Liebezeit, Joseph R.; Payer, David C.; Rausch, Jennie; Saalfeld, Sarah T.; Sandercock, Brett; Smith, Paul A.; Ward, David H.; Lanctot, Richard B. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Average annual temperatures in the Arctic increased by 2–3 °C during the second half of the twentieth century. Because shorebirds initiate northward migration to Arctic nesting sites based on cues at distant wintering ...
