An Eco-Evolutionary Model for Demographic and Phenological Responses in Migratory Birds

An Eco-Evolutionary Model for Demographic and Phenological Responses in Migratory Birds

Many migratory birds have changed their timing of arrival at breeding grounds in response to recent climate change. Understanding the adaptive value and the demographic consequences of these shifts are key challenges. To address these questions we extend previous models of phenological adaptation to...
