Bird migrations are impressive behavioral phenomena, representing complex
spatiotemporal strategies to balance costs of living while maximizing fitness. The field of bird …

Migration is an adaptive life‐history strategy across taxa that helps individuals maximise
fitness by obtaining forage and avoiding predation risk. The mechanisms driving migratory …

The arrival‐time hypothesis of partial seasonal migration proposes that over‐winter
residence is driven by reproductive benefits of early presence on the breeding grounds …

Halting and reversing biodiversity loss is a grand challenge in the Anthropocene, which
suggests an urgent need to effectively protect key areas that support species sustainability …

When wintering at different sites, individuals from the same breeding population can
experience different conditions, with costs and benefits that may have implications …

Dissecting joint micro-evolutionary and plastic responses to environmental perturbations
requires quantifying interacting components of genetic and environmental variation …

Forms of phenotypic plasticity in key traits, and forms of selection on and genetic variation in
such plasticity, fundamentally underpin phenotypic, population dynamic, and evolutionary …

Quantifying temporal variation in sex-specific selection on key ecologically relevant traits,
and quantifying how such variation arises through synergistic or opposing components of …

Population dynamic and eco‐evolutionary responses to environmental variation and change
fundamentally depend on combinations of within‐and among‐cohort variation in the …
