Connectivity between countries established by landbirds and raptors migrating along the African–Eurasian flyway
The conservation of long‐distance migratory birds requires coordination between the
multiple countries connected by the movements of these species. The recent expansion of …

Evolutionary genomics can improve prediction of species' responses to climate change
Global climate change (GCC) increasingly threatens biodiversity through the loss of species,
and the transformation of entire ecosystems. Many species are challenged by the pace of …

Birds advancing lay dates with warming springs face greater risk of chick mortality
In response to a warming planet with earlier springs, migratory animals are adjusting the
timing of essential life stages. Although these adjustments may be essential for keeping …

Climate-driven flyway changes and memory-based long-distance migration
Millions of migratory birds occupy seasonally favourable breeding grounds in the Arctic, but
we know little about the formation, maintenance and future of the migration routes of Arctic …
