Understanding Natural Selection on Traits That Are Influenced by Environmental Conditions
Journal ArticleDOI
Hatching asynchrony is constrained by parental nest attendance during laying
TL;DR: It was found that low nest attendance during laying and increasing hatching asynchrony had detrimental effects on hatching success for small eggs laid early in the laying sequence, and Increasing hatchingAsynchrony also had a detrimental effect on the survival of the youngest sibling.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of laying and hatching order on the timing and asynchrony of hatching
Christina Muck,Ruedi G. Nager +1 more
TL;DR: Differences in egg quality may arise from differential allocation of resources across the laying sequence by the parent and may suggest a parental strategy to alleviate the detrimental effects of within-brood hierarchies on the last-hatching chick.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changing Numbers of Three Gull Species in the British Isles
Ruedi G. Nager,Nina J. O'Hanlon +1 more
TL;DR: The spatial variation in population changes and the differences between species suggest that there is no single cause for the observed changes, thus requiring region and species-specific conservation management strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of two methods for minimally invasive peripheral body temperature measurement in birds
Andreas Nord,Andreas Nord,Andreas Nord,Marina Lehmann,Ross MacLeod,Dominic J. McCafferty,Ruedi G. Nager,Jan-Åke Nilsson,Barbara Helm +8 more
TL;DR: Both methods were equally suited to detect diel changes in peripheral Tb, however, transmitters offered longer detection distance and better temporal resolution, which should be considered when deciding how to collect Tb data remotely.
