Phenological Synchrony and Bird Migration (eBook, ePUB)

Changing Climate and Seasonal Resources in North America
Redaktion: Wood, Eric M.; Kellermann, Jherime L.

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Exploring critical linkages between migratory birds, their seasonal resources, and shifts in climate change and weather events, this book brings together research on the current state of bird migration and phenology research in North America. It discusses the relation of the climate on wintering grounds to spring migration, the relationships of migratory birds and their seasonal resources, and the nature of these relationships in the face of climate change or extreme weather events. It also examines the USA-National Phenology Network's Nature's Notebook program, and ways in which these data can be incorporated into conservation research.

Autorenporträt

Dr. Eric M. Wood is a postdoctoral quantitative ecologist in the Conservation Sciences Program at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. His research investigates the impacts of land use and climate change on species' interactions with their environment. Dr. Wood has over 15 years experience in avian ecology, exploring questions related to spring and fall migration and the breeding period to better understand species-habitat interactions, community and landscape ecology, ecosystem services, and phenology. Dr. Jherime L. Kellermann is an assistant professor in the Natural Sciences Department at the Oregon Institute of Technology and science coordinator at Crater Lake National Park Science and Learning Center. He has nearly 20 years of experience in research and conservation of birds and their habitats in America's Pacific Northwest, Southwest, and Hawaii, as well as the Caribbean and Latin America. His research interests include seasonal dynamics of animal migration and habitat ecology, the synchrony or mismatch of interacting species' phenology associated with climate variation and change, and how changing phenology may impact ecosystem services.
