Critical constraints to ecological buffering in a rapidly changing Arctic: a long-term seabird study

This blog post is provided by David Grémillet and tells the #StoryBehindThePaper for the article, “Critical constraints to ecological buffering in a rapidly changing Arctic: a long-term seabird study”, which was recently published in the Journal of Animal Ecology. The study builds upon 20 years of research on little auks in East Greenland, to identify limits to the adaptability of this seabird to global changes. Little … Continue reading Critical constraints to ecological buffering in a rapidly changing Arctic: a long-term seabird study

Natural selection in action on seasonal migration during extreme storms

This blog post is provided by Paul Acker, Francis Daunt, Sarah Burthe, Mark Newell, & Jane Reid and tells the #StoryBehindThePaper for the article “Strong survival selection on seasonal migration versus residence induced by extreme climatic events“, which was recently published in Journal of Animal Ecology. Ongoing global changes are causing rapid and substantial alterations of environments to which species had previously adapted. Resulting mismatches between individuals and their … Continue reading Natural selection in action on seasonal migration during extreme storms
