Body mass and habitat correlates of song structure in a primitive group of birds (2002, background): “…and acoustic frequencies in the songs of a monophyletic group of primitive birds, the tinamous, as reported in other groups of more derived birds such as doves (Tubaro & Mahler, 1998), woodcreepers (Palacios & Tubaro, 2000), and songbirds (Ryan & Brenowitz, 1985; Wiley, 1991; Badyaev & Leaf, 1997).”
AVIAN COMMUNICATION IN URBAN NOISE: CAUSES AND CONSEQUENCES OF VOCAL ADJUSTMENT (2006, background): “…urban noise; use of this adjustment will be limited by several morphological and kinematic factors that constrain the maximum frequencies that a bird can produce, including head angle, beak gape, and beak shape (Westneat et al. 1993, Palacios and Tubaro 2000, Podos et al. 2004, Nelson et al. 2005).”
Male common loons, Gavia immer, communicate body mass and condition through dominant frequencies of territorial yodels (2007, background): “The dominant frequencies that birds incorporate into acoustic signals can be influenced by syringeal membrane mass, thickness and tension, by tracheal size and shape (Gaunt & Gaunt 1985; Fletcher & Tarnopolsky 1999; Palacios & Tubaro 2000 ), and by syringeal muscle condition (Goller & Suthers 1996a”
Beak morphology and song features covary in a population of Darwin’s finches (Geospiza fortis) (2006, background): “Standardizing beak measures for the influence of body size may thus provide more direct insight into the influence of beak size on song production and evolution (as in Palacios & Tubaro, 2000).”
