The increasing abandonment of marginal land creates new opportunities for restoration,
reintroduction, and rewilding, but what do these terms mean in a rapidly and irreversibly …

With nearly 400 migratory landbird species, the East Asian Flyway is the most diverse of the
world's flyways. This diversity is a consequence of the varied ecological niches provided by …

In 2007, the first miniature light-level geolocators were deployed on small landbirds,
revolutionizing the study of migration. In this paper, we review studies that have used …

Estimating how much long‐distance migrant populations spread out and mix during the non‐
breeding season (migratory connectivity) is essential for understanding and predicting …

Aim Global declines in the populations of migratory species have been attributed largely to
climate change and anthropogenic habitat change. However, the relative contribution of …

Migratory species can experience limiting factors at different locations and during different
periods of their annual cycle. In migratory birds, these factors may even occur in different …

Which factors shape animals' migration movements across large geographical scales, how
different migratory strategies emerge between populations, and how these may affect …

Migratory connectivity is the degree to which populations are linked in space and time
across the annual cycle. Low connectivity indicates mixing of populations while high …

The conservation of long‐distance migratory birds requires coordination between the
multiple countries connected by the movements of these species. The recent expansion of …

Determining how migratory animals are spatially connected between breeding and non‐
breeding periods is essential for predicting the effects of environmental change and for …
