Capital or income breeding? A theoretical model of female reproductive strategies (2007, background): “For birds, there is evidence that, for egg development, protein may be a more important factor than energy (Meijer and Drent 1999).”
Phenological advancement in arctic bird species: relative importance of snow melt and ecological factors (2014, unknown): “production of eggs (Meijer and Drent 1999; Morrison and Hobson 2004).”
Barriers to movement: impacts of wind farms on migrating birds (2009, background): “In many bird species, reproductive success is related to body condition at the time of breeding (Wendeln and Becker, 1999), and this is especially so among eiders because of the heavy investment of female body reserves during reproduction (Parker and Holm, 1990; Meijer and Drent, 1999).”
Migratory connectivity in Arctic geese: spring stopovers are the weak links in meeting targets for breeding (2007, background): “In this paper, we return to Arctic-nesting geese that provided one of the classic examples of capital breeding (reviewed by: Meijer and Drent 1999; Klaassen 2003) and will consider new sources of information that clarify the situation.”
Winter climate affects subsequent breeding success of common eiders (2006, background): “The common eider is a short-distance migrant like many other waterfowl of northern Europe (Cramp & Simmons, 1977), but it differs from most other ducks in being a pure ’capital’ breeder (Drent & Daan, 1980), using stored resources for egg production and during incubation ( Meijer & Drent, 1999; Har”
The adaptive value of energy storage and capital breeding in seasonal environments (2009, unknown): “2005) and birds (Meijer and Drent 1999).”
Ecology of spring-migrating Anatidae: a review (2006, unknown): “Given their relatively low body mass, ducks (Anatinae) should theoretically all be income breeders (Meijer and Drent 1999; Klaassen 2002), especially the smallest species like the green-winged teal Anas carolinensis (Paquette and Ankney 1998).”
