Effects of Spring Body Condition and Age on Reproduction in Mallards (Anas Platyrhynchos) (2008, background): “Factors affecting nutrient acquisition on wintering or migratory staging areas have the potential to influence subsequent reproductive success (e.g., Heitmeyer and Fredrickson 1981, Kaminski and Gluesing 198�, Sandberg and Moore 1996, Newton 2006) and, therefore, fitness.”
Why are bird migration dates shifting? A review of weather and climate effects on avian migratory phenology (2007, background): “Indeed, success of the migratory journey depends greatly on what happens during stopover periods and at stopover sites (Newton 2006).”
Phenotypic changes in spring arrival: evolution, phenotypic plasticity, effects of weather and condition (2007, background): “Early arrival bears the cost of increased mortality due to a high probability of encountering inclement weather conditions very early in the season (Brown & Brown 2000, Newton 2007).”
Travelling through a warming world: climate change and migratory species. (2009, background): “Changes in any area used by a migratory species are likely to affect all populations of a species, even those that do not use them directly, because of density-dependent habitat selection and mortality (Sutherland 1996, Newton 2006).”
Migrant–habitat relationships during stopover along an ecological barrier: extrinsic constraints and conservation implications (2011, unknown): “In light of growing evidence that stopover habitat may be limiting to some populations of migratory land birds (Sillett and Holmes 2002; Newton 2004, 2006 ), the disproportionately high rate of human development coupled with the importance of coastal areas for en route migrants create urgency for t”
Weather and fuel reserves determine departure and flight decisions in passerines migrating across the Baltic Sea (2015, background): “…about when and how to leave a stopover site may affect the overall success of migration (Alerstam & Hedenstr€om, 1998; Alerstam & Lindstr€om, 1990; Newton, 2006), especially at coastal stopover sites where competition and risk of predation are expected to be high (Newton, 2008; Woodworth,…”
The decline of Afro-Palaearctic migrants and an assessment of potential causes (2014, unknown): “wind turbines, television masts, electricity pylons, lighthouses) can sometimes be a source of substantial mortality (Newton 2006).”
Climate change and bird phenology: a long‐term study in the Iberian Peninsula (2006, background): “Moreover, the potential impact of the conditions in the pass areas was not tested in Chapter 4, although it has been demonstrated that these sites can play a key role in bird migration in spite of the fact that they represent generally small areas and are visited over relatively short time intervals”
Timing of seasonal migration in mule deer: effects of climate, plant phenology, and life‐history characteristics (2011, background): “Likewise, the relation between nutritional condition and the timing of migration, as well as the fitness consequences of that timing, are well documented in birds (Newton 2006, Pulido 2007).”
Regional and seasonal flight speeds of soaring migrants and the role of weather conditions at hourly and daily scales (2015, background): “Thus, weather influences during migration may carry over to later stages of the annual cycle (McNamara et al. 1998, Smith and Moore 2005, Newton 2006, Norris and Marra 2007).”
Cross-seasonal effects and the dynamics of waterfowl populations (2014, background): “Newton (2006) showed how density-dependent mortality operating at different segments of the annual cycle interacted with density-dependent reproduction to regulate population size.”
Migratory connectivity in Arctic geese: spring stopovers are the weak links in meeting targets for breeding (2007, background): “Newton (2006) and Drent et al. (2006) have collated the evidence collected to date on the positive association of body weight at migration time and subsequent breeding success (mainly in waterfowl).”
