A method for deriving time-variable avian re-nesting probability functions for use in seasonal productivity models

Conference Proceeding
White, P. (2014)
A method for deriving time-variable avian re-nesting probability functions for use in seasonal productivity models. In Proceedings of the BOU’s 2013 Annual Conference - From populations to policy impact: avian demography in a changing world
The demographic parameters productivity, survival and migration ultimately determine local avian population trends. Their measurement is essential in bird conservation, for di...
