Generalized linear mixed models: a practical guide for ecology and evolution
How should ecologists and evolutionary biologists analyze nonnormal data that involve
random effects? Nonnormal data such as counts or proportions often defy classical statistical …

Early arrival at breeding grounds: Causes, costs and a trade‐off with overwintering latitude
Early arrival at breeding grounds is of prime importance for migrating birds as it is known to
enhance breeding success. Adults, males and higher quality individuals typically arrive …

Repeatable timing of northward departure, arrival and breeding in Black-tailed Godwits Limosa l. limosa, but no domino effects
When early breeding is advantageous, migrants underway to the breeding areas may be
time stressed. The timing of sequential events such as migration and breeding is expected to …

Complex phenological changes and their consequences in the breeding success of a migratory bird, the white stork Ciconia ciconia
The timing of bird migration has shifted in response to climate change. However, few studies
have linked the potential consequences of any phenological shift on individual fitness and …

Nest size, nest building behaviour and breeding success in a species with nest reuse: the white stork Ciconia ciconia
Nest size and nest building behaviour affect individual fitness and thus, selection may act on
these traits. Most data on nesting behaviour come from species that build a nest for each …

Timing is critical: consequences of asynchronous migration for the performance and destination of a long-distance migrant
Background Migration phenology is shifting for many long-distance migrants due to global
climate change, however the timing and duration of migration may influence the …

The trade-offs of foraging at landfills: Landfill use enhances hatching success but decrease the juvenile survival of their offspring on white storks (Ciconia ciconia)
During the last decades, landfills have become a valuable food source for wildlife, being in
some cases determinants of large avian population increases. Superabundant food …
