Shorebirds (sandpipers, plovers and allies) are some of the most charismatic animals that breed on all continents and inhabit diverse habitats, and their ecology, behaviour and …
Sex roles describe sex differences in courtship, mate competition, social pair‐bonds and parental care. A key challenge is to identify associations among the components and the …
Complex parenting has been proposed to contribute to the evolutionary success of vertebrates. However, the evolutionary routes to complex parenting and the role of parenting …
High air temperatures have measurable negative impacts on reproduction in wild animal populations, including during incubation in birds. Understanding the mechanisms driving …
Aim Parental care improves the survival of offspring and therefore has a major impact on reproductive success. It is increasingly recognized that coordinated biparental care is …
Incubation is an important component of parental care in birds, and species differ widely in their incubation rhythm. In this comparative study, we focused on factors responsible for …
A major driver of wildlife responses to climate change will include non-genomic effects, like those mediated through parental behavior and physiology (ie, parental effects). Parental …
Males and females often display different behaviours and, in the context of reproduction, these behaviours are labelled sex roles. The Darwin–Bateman paradigm argues that the …
Trait-based assessments allow rapid evaluation of species' vulnerability to climate change, but often overlook subtle yet consequential interspecific variation in behavioural and …
