Seasonal survival and reversible state effects in a long‐distance migratory shorebird
Events during one stage of the annual cycle can reversibly affect an individual's condition
and performance not only within that stage, but also in subsequent stages (ie reversible …

Piping plover chick survival negatively correlated with beach recreation
Shorebird populations worldwide are declining because of habitat loss from sea‐level rise,
accelerated erosion, development, and recreational land use. To better understand the …

Impacts of extreme environmental disturbances on piping plover survival are partially moderated by migratory connectivity
Effective conservation for listed migratory species requires an understanding of how drivers
of population decline vary spatially and temporally, as well as knowledge of range-wide …
