Reversed sexual dimorphism (RSD), which occurs when the female of a species is larger
than the male, is the rule for most birds of prey but the exception among other bird and …

ABSTRACT The Nearctic northern goshawk (Accipiter gentilis atricapillis) is a resident of
conifer, broadleaf, and mixed forests from the boreal to the southwestern montane regions of …

Food supplementation experiments have been widely used to get detailed insight into how
food supply contributes to the reproductive performance of wild animals. Surprisingly, even …

Understanding how habitat structure relates to reproductive performance of species can
help identify what habitats are of the highest quality for a given species and thereby guide …

Summary 1 Habitat heterogeneity has important repercussions for species abundance,
demography and life‐history patterns. While habitat effects have been more thoroughly …

With ongoing degradation of natural forests and spread of forest plantations, plantations
must play an increasingly important role in biodiversity conservation. Study of habitat …

Philopatry and monogamy are conventionally viewed as strategies for improving fitness.
Many philopatric and monogamous species have, however, been shown to perform …

Contemporary research has documented a large number of shifts in spring phenology and
changes in distribution range although the average spring temperatures have increased by …

I examined if the distance from densely-built (urban) areas is reflected in the brood size of
the Northern Goshawk near the southern coast of Finland. The data were collected from 70 …

Delayed density‐dependent mortality induced by delayed numerical response of predators
can drive prey populations to fluctuate in high‐amplitude cycles. We studied numerical …
