- Pitch shifts and song structure indicate male quality in the dawn chorus of black-capped chickadees (2004, background): “In these territorial song duels, pitch matching is closely associated with conflict escalation (Shackleton and Ratcliffe 1994) and functions as a graded signal, significantly affecting male behaviour as more aversive than non-matching song (Otter et al. 2002; Mennill and Ratcliffe 2004).”
- Vocal interactions in nightingales (Luscinia megarhynchos): more aggressive males have higher pairing success (2006, unknown): “Dabelsteen et al. 1997; Naguib 1999; Mennill & Ratcliffe 2004a; but see Osiejuk et al. 2004) or stop singing when overlapped (Langemann et al. 2000).”
- Song as an aggressive signal in songbirds (2009, methodology): “Mennill & Ratcliffe (2004b) used two loudspeakers both placed on a subject’s territory to simulate an interaction between black-capped chickadees; subjects preferred to approach the speaker broadcasting songs that overlapped the other speaker’s songs.”
- Patterns of extrapair mating in relation to male dominance status and female nest placement in black-capped chickadees (2004, background): “Indeed, all known indicators of male quality in black-capped chickadees, including male performance in song contests (Mennill and Ratcliffe 2004; Mennill et al. 2002), dawn chorus singing performance (Christie et al.”
- Overlapping and matching of codas in vocal interactions between sperm whales: insights into communication function (2008, methodology): “…1984; Masataka & Biben 1987; Geissmann 1999; Lemasson & Hausberger 2004; elephants: Soltis et al. 2005), group cohesion (e.g. Masataka & Symmes 1986; Sugiura 1998; Miller et al. 2004) and territory defence (e.g. McGregor et al. 1992; Burt et al. 2001; Hyman 2003; Mennill & Ratcliffe 2004).”
- The signal value of birdsong: empirical evidence suggests song overlapping is a signal (2010, background): “…to date were primarily longrange encounters with lower levels of escalation (e.g. Naguib & Kipper 2006; Fitzsimmons et al. 2008a) than the close-range territorial conflicts that have been the focus of most experimental studies on overlapping (e.g. Mennill & Ratcliffe 2004b; Schmidt et al. 2007).”
- From eavesdropping on performance to copying the behavior of others: a review of public information use (2007, unknown): “Similar kinds of song playback experiments have been conducted with black-capped chickadees (Poecile atricapillus) (Mennill and Ratcliffe 2004) and great tits (Parus major) (Peake et al.”
