Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: P. Berthold and E. Gwinnd Bird migration is an intriguing aspect of the living world - so much so that it has been investigated for as long, and as thoroughly, as almost any other natural phenomenon. Aristotle, who can count as the founder of scientific ornithology, paid very close attention to the migrations of the birds he ob served, but it was not until the reign of Friedrich II, in the first half of the 13th century, that reliable data began to be obtained. From then on, the data base grew rapidly. Systematic studies of bird migration were introduced when the Vogelwarte Rossitten was founded, as the first ornithological biological observation station in the world (see first chapter "In Memory of Vogelwarte Rossitten"). This area later received enormous impetus when ex perimental research on the subject was begun: the large-scale bird-ringing experiment initiated in Rossitten in 1903 by Johannes Thienemann (who was inspired by the pioneering studies of C. C. M. Mortensen), the experiments on photoperiodicity carried out by William Rowan in the 1920s in Canada and retention and release experiments performed by Thienemann in the 1930s in Rossitten, the first experimental study on the orientation of migratory birds. After the Second World War, migration research, while continuing in the previous areas, also expanded into new directions such as radar ornithology, ecophysiology and hormonal control mechanisms, studies of evolution, ge netics, telemetry and others.

Book Synopsis Shorebird Migration and Staging at a Large Prairie Lake and Wetland Complex by : Stuart A. Alexander

Alexander and published by Canadian Museum of Civilization/Musee Canadien Des Civilisations. This book was released on 1997 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "We examined the use of an extensive prairie lake and wetland complex at the Quill Lakes, Saskatchewan, by migrant shorebirds. The most common species observed there during northbound spring migration were (in order of abundance) Red-necked Phalarope Phalaropus lobatus, Semipalmated Sandpiper Calidris pusilla, Stilt Sandpiper C. himantopus, White-rumped Sandpiper C. fuscicollis, Least Sandpiper C. minutilla, and Sanderling C. alba"--Abstract.
Book Synopsis Shorebird Ecology, Conservation, and Management by : Dr. Mark A. Colwell
Download or read book Shorebird Ecology, Conservation, and Management written by Dr. Mark A. Colwell and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2010-11-16 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shorebirds are model organisms for illustrating the principles of ecology and excellent subjects for research. Their mating systems are as diverse as any avian group, their migrations push the limits of endurance, and their foraging is easily studied in the open habitats of estuaries and freshwater wetlands. This comprehensive text explores the ecology, conservation, and management of these fascinating birds. Beginning chapters examine phylogenetic relationships between shorebirds and other birds, and cover shorebird morphology, anatomy, and physiology. A section on breeding biology looks in detail at their reproductive biology. Because shorebirds spend much of their time away from breeding areas, a substantial section on non-breeding biology covers migration, foraging ecology, and social behavior. The text also covers shorebird demography, population size, and management issues related to habitat, predators, and human disturbances. Throughout, it emphasizes applying scientific knowledge to the conservation of shorebird populations, many of which are unfortunately in decline.

Book Synopsis Peterson Reference Guide to Bird Behavior by : John Kricher
Download or read book Peterson Reference Guide to Bird Behavior written by John Kricher and published by Peterson Reference Guides. This book was released on 2020 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating look at what birds do and why they do it Both casual and serious birdwatchers can take their skills to the next level with this detailed consideration of bird behavior. This book makes it possible to move beyond identifying birds to understanding some of the underpinning and meaning to what birds do, how they do it, and why they do it. Written in an easy-to-understand style, with an abundance of photos illustrating the behaviors, the book shows how flight, molt, migration, feeding, predation, social behavior, courtship, and nesting shape birds' behaviors. Birds are everywhere, and easy to observe; this introduction to elements of bird behavior will connect readers more intimately with these remarkable and beguilingly perceptive animals.

Download or read book Shorebirds written by J. Burger and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among birds, shorebirds provide some of the more unique opportunities to examine basic problems in behavior, ecology, and evolution. This is in large measure due to the diversity, both behaviorally and ecologically, of a group closely related taxonomically and distributed throughout the world. The overall aim of these two volumes is to provide a representative selection of current research being conducted on shorebird behavior and ecology. Traditionally, marine birds have included those species that breed in large colonies on offshore islands along coasts (see Volume 4 of this series). Although shorebirds have generally not been considered within this group, the fact that almost 40% of the species breed along coasts and more than 60% often or always spend the nonbreeding season in coastal habitats more than justifies their inclusion as marine birds (at least those species that totally or partially depend upon the marine environment). Their inclusion markedly increases species diversity in marine birds since shorebirds add about 217 species to the 280 that are traditionally thought of as marine.
