Chasing the bird: 3D acoustic tracking of aerial flight displays with a minimal planar microphone array
Dutilleux, Guillaume Joseph Antonin; Sandercock, Brett Kevin; Kålås, John Atle (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Tracking the flight patterns of birds and bats in three-dimensional space is central to key questions in evolutionary ecology but remains a difficult technical challenge. For example, complex aerial flight displays are ... -
A circumpolar study unveils a positive non-linear effect oftemperature on arctic arthropod availability that may reduce therisk of warming-induced trophic mismatch for breeding shorebirds
Chagnon-Lafortune, Aurélie; Duchesne, Éliane; Legagneux, Pierre; McKinnon, Laura; Reneerkens, Jeroen; Casajus, Nicolas; Abraham, Kenneth F.; Bolduc, Élise; Brown, Glen S.; Brown, Stephen C.; Gates, H. River; Gilg, Olivier; Giroux, Marie-Andrée; Gurney, Kirsty E.B.; Kendall, Steve; Kwon, Eunbi; Lanctot, Richard B.; Lank, David B.; Lecomte, Nicolas; Leung, Maria; Liebezeit, Joseph R.; Morrison, R. I. Guy; Nol, Erica; Payer, David C.; Reid, Donald; Ruthrauff, Daniel; Saalfeld, Sarah T.; Sandercock, Brett Kevin; Smith, Paul A.; Schmidt, Niels Martin; Tulp, Ingrid; Ward, David H.; Høye, Toke T.; Berteaux, Dominique; Bêty, Joël (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Seasonally abundant arthropods are a crucial food source for many migratorybirds that breed in the Arctic. In cold environments, the growth and emergence ofarthropods are particularly tied to temperature. Thus, the phenology ... -
Climatic variation influences annual survival of an island-breeding tropical shorebird
Engel, Noemie; Sandercock, Brett Kevin; Kosztolányi, András; Adrião, Andreia; Tavares, Alex; Rice, Romy; Székely, Tamás (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Global biodiversity loss is a major environmental concern. The wildlife on islands are particularly vulnerable to threats posed by alien predators, habitat loss and overexploitation. Effective conservation management of ... -
Evaluating environmental impacts of micro, mini and small hydropower plants in Norway
Hedger, Richard David; Kenawi, Mahmoud S.; Sundt-Hansen, Line Elisabeth Breivik; Bakken, Tor Haakon; Sandercock, Brett Kevin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Small-scale hydropower plants with an installed capacity <10 MW are an important part of Norway’s local and regional development. Small-scale facilities have been viewed as a relatively environmentally friendly form of ... -
Long-term decline in nest survival of a ground-nesting shorebird on a tropical island
Engel, Noemie; McDonald, Grant; Sandercock, Brett Kevin; Rice, Romy; Moreno, Rocio; Rataod, Sara; Székely, Tamás (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Tropical islands harbour a disproportionally high number of endemic species, which face increasing threats due to habitat loss, disturbance and introduced alien predators. Long-term demographic studies are needed to ... -
Steep declines in radioactive caesium after 30 years of monitoring alpine plants in mountain areas of central Norway
Tingstad, Lise; Sandercock, Brett Kevin; Nybø, Signe (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The Chernobyl accident exposed large areas of northern Europe to radiocaesium (137Cs). We investigated temporal and spatial variation in concentrations of radiocaesium among five functional groups of alpine plants at two ... -
Variation in nest survival of three species of tropical plovers in Madagascar with clutch size, age of nest, year and El Niño effect
Tanner, Claire E.; Jones, William; Kubelka, Vojtěch; Caspers, Barbara A.; Krueger, Oliver; Mijoro, Tafita Jaona; Sandercock, Brett Kevin; Zefania, Sama; Székely, Tamas (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)A combination of life history traits and environmental conditions has been highlighted as the main drivers of avian breeding success. While drivers of breeding success are well known in some species, especially birds in ... -
Why do avian responses to change in Arctic green-up vary?
Tavera, Eveling A.; Lank, David B.; Douglas, David C.; Sandercock, Brett Kevin; Lanctot, Richard B.; Schmidt, Niels M.; Reneerkens, Jeroen; Ward, David H.; Bêty, Joël; Kwon, Eunbi; Lecomte, Nicolas; Gratto-Trevor, Cheri L.; Smith, Paul A.; English, Willow B.; Saalfeld, Sarah T.; Brown, Stephen C.; Gates, H. River; Nol, Erica; Liebezeit, Joseph R.; McGuire, Rebecca L.; McKinnon, Laura; Kendall, Steve; Robards, Martin; Boldenow, Megan; Payer, David C.; Rausch, Jennie; Solovyeva, Diana V.; Stalwick, Jordyn A.; Gurney, Kirsty E.B. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Global climate change has altered the timing of seasonal events (i.e., phenology) for a diverse range of biota. Within and among species, however, the degree to which alterations in phenology match climate variability ...
