Evolutionary and demographic consequences of phenological mismatches

ME Visser, P Gienapp - Nature ecology & evolution, 2019 - nature.com
Climate change has often led to unequal shifts in the seasonal timing (phenology) of
interacting species, such as consumers and their resource, leading to phenological …

Understanding the role of temperature in seasonal timing: Effects on behavioural, physiological and molecular phenotypes

S Sur, A Sharma - Molecular Ecology, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
Organisms adapt to daily and seasonal environmental changes to maximise their metabolic
and reproductive fitness. For seasonally breeding animals, photoperiod is considered the …

Nest microclimate during incubation affects posthatching development and parental care in wild birds

AJ Mueller, KD Miller, EK Bowers - Scientific Reports, 2019 - nature.com
It is widely accepted that recent increases in environmental temperature have had a causal
effect on changing life histories; however, much of the evidence for this is derived from long …

Temperature alters the hypothalamic transcription of photoperiod responsive genes in induction of seasonal response in migratory redheaded buntings

The relative influence of cross‐seasonal and local weather effects on the breeding success of a migratory songbird

DR de Zwaan, A Drake, AF Camfield… - Journal of Animal …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
In seasonal environments, fluctuating early‐season weather conditions and short breeding
windows limit reproductive opportunities such that breeding earlier or later than the optimum …

Early hatching enhances survival despite beneficial phenotypic effects of late-season developmental environments

PR Pearson, DA Warner - Proceedings of the Royal …, 2018 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Seasonal shifts in environmental conditions provide predictable cues to which organisms

The influence of climate variability on demographic rates of avian Afro-palearctic migrants

T Telenský, P Klvaňa, M Jelínek, J Cepák, J Reif - Scientific Reports, 2020 - nature.com
Climate is an important driver of changes in animal population size, but its effect on the
underlying demographic rates remains insufficiently understood. This is particularly true for …

IPM2: toward better understanding and forecasting of population dynamics

F Plard, D Turek, MU Grüebler… - Ecological …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
