Biotic selective pressures dominate explanations for the evolutionary ecology of tropical
endotherms. Yet, abiotic factors, principally precipitation regimes, shape biogeographical …

Aim Ecological data collected by the general public are valuable for addressing a wide
range of ecological research and conservation planning, and there has been a rapid …

Light‐level geolocator tags use ambient light recordings to estimate the whereabouts of an
individual over the time it carried the device. Over the past decade, these tags have …

Although the migration ecology of birds breeding in the Neotropics is still poorly studied
relative to that of their counterparts breeding at north-temperate latitudes, studies conducted …

Citizen science data are valuable for addressing a wide range of ecological research
questions, and there has been a rapid increase in the scope and volume of data available …

The association between migratory strategies and life-history traits helps explain how
migratory organisms balance the energetic costs and survival risks with the benefits of …

Aim Temporal variation in environmental conditions merits greater consideration in species
distribution models (SDMs), and is especially relevant in dynamic systems, such as arid and …

For migratory species, seasonal movements complicate local climate adaptation, as it is
unclear whether individuals track climate niches across the annual cycle. In the migratory …

Aim We evaluated the influence of climate on the structure of bird communities along
precipitation gradients. We hypothesize that mechanisms responsible for community …

Migratory birds depend on resources located in distantly separated ecosystems, potentially
making them vulnerable to rapid environmental changes across their range. Yet, we …
