Shifts in phenology due to global climate change: the need for a yardstick (2005, background): “…such that the response to temperatures is similar to that of, e.g. food species, this will only be true under the set of abiotic conditions under which these species have evolved, and not for the conditions altered by climate change (see Visser et al. (2004) for a more extended argument).”
Phenotypic changes in spring arrival: evolution, phenotypic plasticity, effects of weather and condition (2007, background): “Yet, the observed changes have rarely been of the same magnitude as those in their prey species, which has led to an asynchrony between the demand for food and its availability (reviewed by Visser et al. 2004, Visser & Both 2005).”
Penguin responses to climate change in the Southern Ocean (2009, background): “Commonly observed phenological responses in birds, are shifts in dates of return to breed in migrant species and timing of egg laying (Visser et al., 2004).”
The effect of climate change on the correlation between avian life‐history traits (2005, background): “Tit-laying dates (LD) are correlated with the caterpillar peak (Lack, 1966; Perrins & McCleery, 1989), but their responses to temperature differ, leading to a mismatch between the different components when temperature rises (Visser et al., 1998, 2004; Visser & Holleman, 2001).”
Warming climate advances breeding and improves synchrony of food demand and food availability in a boreal passerine (2011, background): “Breeding should be timed so that enough food is available during the nestling feeding phase – in the temperate zone the appropriate time window is short (Lack, 1950; Visser et al., 2004).”
The evolutionary ecology of individual phenotypic plasticity in wild populations (2007, background): “However, a certain amount of replication is necessary in order to estimate G · E.”
Heterogeneous intra-annual climatic changes drive different phenological responses at two trophic levels (2008, background): “These studies also suggest that the mismatching of interactions can affect population viability; therefore, a loss of biodiversity is expected (Visser et al. 2004, Visser & Both 2005, Memmott et al. 2007).”
Has Prey Availability for Arctic Birds Advanced with Climate Change? Hindcasting the Abundance of Tundra Arthropods Using Weather and Seasonal Variations (2009, background): “, 2004) and in a study of 20 migrant landbirds (Cotton, 2003), changes in the breeding areas may not be perceivable or predictable by birds before their arrival (Visser et al., 2004).”
Predicting adaptation of phenology in response to climate change, an insect herbivore example (2007, background): “There is, however, no a priori reason why different species within a food chain would shift their phenology at the same rate (Visser & Holleman, 2001; Visser et al., 2004).”
Climate envelope, life history traits and the resilience of birds facing global change (2007, background): “Advanced food peak leads to birds failing to breed at the time of maximal food supply (Visser et al., 2004), and such climate-change-induced mistiming leads to population decline (Both et al., 2006).”
Climate change and timing of avian breeding and migration throughout Europe (2007, background): “…to allow breeding at the optimal time, but recently the phenology at breeding areas has become progressively earlier as a result of climate change (Visser et al. 1998, 2006, Cresswell & McCleery 2003), and hence the optimal breeding date has changed (Visser et al. 1998, 2004, Both & Visser 2001).”
