• Migratory connectivity in Arctic geese: spring stopovers are the weak links in meeting targets for breeding (2007, background): “Individual fat stores at the Norwegian staging site, as revealed by the abdominal profile index (for calibration of this technique see Madsen and Klaassen 2006), were a good predictor of breeding success in that season (Prop et al. 2003).”
• Ecology of spring-migrating Anatidae: a review (2006, unknown): “…grounds is to depart for migration as soon as the maximum fat quantity has been accumulated (barnacle goose, Prop et al. 2003), and use it on the breeding ground to meet subsequent breeding requirements (ringnecked duck Aythya collaris, Hohman et al. 1988; barnacle goose, Prop et al. 2003).”
• Towards a new understanding of migration timing: slower spring than autumn migration in geese reflects different decision rules for stopover use and departure (2016, background): “During summer, conditions in the breeding grounds are highly suitable, but summers in the Arctic are very short (Prop et al. 2003) and birds seem to be driven south early by the first snow and ice events.”
• Travelling to breed (2006, background): “A longer stay in Norway would not be profitable (Prop et al. 2003; Hübner 2006, combined) poor quality prey (cf. McWilliams and Karasov 2001; Karasov and McWilliams 2005; Piersma and Drent 2003), the red knot is in spring virtually restricted to sites with most profitable prey on offer (high flesh…”
• Cross-seasonal effects and the dynamics of waterfowl populations (2014, background): “The most direct mechanism underlying CSEs in waterfowl, especially those linking winter and spring migration areas to breeding, relates directly to nutritional state, and is, therefore, related to individual abilities to store more nutrients earlier than others (Prop et al. 2003; Drent et al. 2003).”
• Phenotypic changes in spring arrival: evolution, phenotypic plasticity, effects of weather and condition (2007, background): “…but also food availability at stopover sites or wind conditions on migration (as headwinds increase the energetic cost of migration) may have a considerable influence on arrival date and, subsequently, on breeding success (Madsen 2001, Prop et al. 2003, see also reviews by Drent 2006, Newton 2006).”
• Pay-offs and penalties of competing migratory schedules (2003, background): “geese as well (Prop et al. 2003).”
• Exposure to high temperature influences the behaviour, physiology, and survival of sockeye salmon during spawning migration (2008, background): “Given the highly adaptive nature of migration timing, not only in salmon but in many other organisms (Brown and Brown 2000; Drent et al. 2003; Prop et al. 2003; Beˆty t al.”
• Individual variation in timing of migration: causes and reproductive consequences in greater snow geese (Anser caerulescens atlanticus) (2004, background): “However, there is still little empirical data on the fitness costs and benefits of different migratory decisions in birds, especially in females (Brown and Brown 2000; Drent et al. 2003; Prop et al. 2003).”
