The onset of spring and timing of migration in two arctic nesting goose populations: the pink-footed goose Anser bachyrhynchus and the barnacle goose Branta leucopsis (2008, unknown): “Migratory bird species have been found to adjust the timing of their migration to changes in the growing season (Mason 1995, Crick et al. 1997, McCleery and Perrins 1998, Bauer et al. 2006, Jonzén et al. 2006).”
Variable shifts in spring and autumn migration phenology in North American songbirds associated with climate change (2009, background): “We included the average NAO index for winter (December–February) in analyses of spring migration, and the average index for summer (June–August) in analyses of autumn migration, because previous studies have identified lagged effects of NAO on bird migration (Hüppop & Hüppop, 2003; Vähätalo et al., ”
Timing of seasonal migration in mule deer: effects of climate, plant phenology, and life‐history characteristics (2011, background): “For example, avian migration is related to plant and invertebrate phenology, with earlier spring migrations corresponding to earlier arrival of spring (Forchhammer et al. 2002, Sparks et al. 2005, Jonzén et al. 2006, Carey 2009).”
Climate envelope, life history traits and the resilience of birds facing global change (2007, background): “Climate change has already been linked to distributional (Parmesan & Yohe, 2003; Thuiller et al., 2005), elevational (Wilson et al., 2005), ecological (Davies et al., 2006) and phenological (Crick & Sparks, 1999; Jonzén et al., 2006; Menzel et al., 2006) shifts.”
Intraspecific consistency and geographic variability in temporal trends of spring migration phenology among European bird species (2007, background): “…between our findings, showing clear evidence of a stronger advance among short- compared to long-distance migrants, and those reported in Jonzén et al. (2006) could be due to the many differences between the 2 studies, such as a different temporal extent of the time series, showing…”
Climate change and Australian marine life (2007, background): “Migratory species are arriving earlier and leaving later (Mason 1995, Crick et al. 1997, Lehikoinen et al. 2004, Marra et al. 2005, Jonzén et al. 2006).”
Climate change and unequal phenological changes across four trophic levels: constraints or adaptations? (2009, background): “At their wintering grounds, they lack information on when spring starts at their breeding sites, and therefore they use day length variation to time their migration (Gwinner 1996), and indeed we see no change in arrival date during the last decades (Both & Visser 2001; Both, Bijlsma & Visser 2005; H”
Featuring 10 phenological estimators using simulated data (2010, background): “These include the estimation of percentile dates (Jonzen et al. 2006) or mean dates (Miller-Rushing et al. 2008b).”
Why are bird migration dates shifting? A review of weather and climate effects on avian migratory phenology (2007, methodology): “…of the breeding distributions (such as the Mediterranean region for trans-Saharan migrants; Gordo & Sanz 2005, 2006a, Gordo et al. 2005, Rodríguez-Teijeiro et al. 2005, Jonzén et al. 2006, Rubolini et al. 2007a, Saino et al. 2007, this issue) cannot be attributed to the previously cited mechanisms.”
Bird migration times, climate change, and changing population sizes (2008, background): “The SOI and NAOI terms indicate that arrival dates overall tend to occur earlier in years with positive SOI and NAOI values.”
Climate variation effects on fungal fruiting (2014, background): “Changes in fungal fruiting phenology Many studies have recently revealed changes in the phenology of Earth’s biota related to climate change (e.g. Fitter and Fitter, 2002; Pe nuelas et al., 2002; Root et al., 2003; Both et al., 2004; Gordo and Sanz, 2005; Jonz en et al., 2006; Menzel et al., 2006).”
