A long winter for the Red Queen: rethinking the evolution of seasonal migration
This paper advances an hypothesis that the primary adaptive driver of seasonal migration is
maintenance of site fidelity to familiar breeding locations. We argue that seasonal migration …

Non-breeding conditions induce carry-over effects on survival of migratory birds
Identifying the processes that limit populations is a foundational objective of ecology and an
urgent need for conservation. For migratory animals, researchers must study individuals …
