[HTML][HTML] Persistence of methodological, taxonomical, and geographical bias in assessments of species' vulnerability to climate change: A review
Species' vulnerability to climate change has become a well-researched field in recent years:
between 2000 and 2016, at least 743 articles reporting climate change vulnerability were …

The role of habitat in avian community composition: physiognomy or floristics?
JT Rotenberry - Oecologia, 1985 - Springer
It has been proposed that within rather broad habitat types the distribution and abundance of
bird species may be more closely associated with plant taxonomic composition than with the …

The relationship of tropical bird communities to tree species composition and vegetation structure along an Andean elevational gradient
Aim Understanding patterns of species turnover along environmental gradients and their
consistency across taxonomic groups is central to the study of biodiversity. We may expect …

The relationship between breeding bird density and vegetation volume
An index of total vegetation volume was strongly correlated with breeding bird density at 31
sites in four separate studies conducted in southwestern shrub and desert habitats between …

Relationships between bird species and tree species assemblages in forested habitats of eastern North America
Aim We examined the relative influence of geographical location, habitat structure
(physiognomy), and dominant plant species composition (floristics) on avian habitat …

Foliage structure influences foraging of insectivorous forest birds: an experimental study
CJ Whelan - Ecology, 2001 - Wiley Online Library
Preferences for foraging in particular tree species have been well documented in a variety of
bird species, but underlying reasons remain little investigated. Understanding the causal …

Tree‐species preferences of foraging insectivorous birds: implications for floodplain forest restoration
The tree‐species composition of forests can be an important component of habitat selection
by breeding birds. We examined tree‐species use by observing the foraging behavior of 13 …
