Understanding Demographic and Behavioral Mechanisms that Guide Responses of Neotropical Migratory Birds to Urbanization: a Simulation Approach (2008)

Shustack, Daniel P; The Ohio State University; Shustack.1@osu.edu, Rodewald, Amanda D; The Ohio State University; Rodewald.1@osu.edu

Although studies often report that densities of many forest birds are negatively related to urbanization, the mechanisms guiding this pattern are poorly understood. Our objective was to use a...

The Value of Urban Forests to Wintering Birds (2006)

Kelly A. Atchison, Amanda D. Rodewald

Although the negative impacts of urbanization on ecological communities are usually emphasized in the literature, urban parks may make positive contributions to conservation. We hypothesized that...

EDGE- AND AREA-SENSITIVITY OF SHRUBLAND BIRDS (2005)

AMANDA D. RODEWALD, ANDREW C. VITZ

Populations of shrubland birds in eastern North America have consistently declined since the 1960s, but conservation is hampered by an inadequate understanding of the area requirements of most...

Nest-searching cues and studies of nest-site selection and nesting success (2004)

Amanda D. Rodewald

Locating and monitoring nests are among the most widely used approaches in studies of avian ecology, evolution, and conservation. While several papers outline “best practices” for nest studies,...

NEST SITE SELECTION AND NESTING SUCCESS OF THE RED-EYED VIREO IN CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA (2001)

ADAM M. SIEPIELSKI, AMANDA D. RODEWALD, RICHARD H. YAHNER

We compared nest placement and characteristics of nesting habitat used by Red-eyed Vireos (Vireo olivaceous) in deciduous forests of central Pennsylvania during the breeding seasons of 1998 and 1999....

INFLUENCE OF LANDSCAPE AND HABITAT CHARACTERISTICS ON OVENBIRD PAIRING SUCCESS (2000)

Amanda D. Rodewald, Richard H. Yahner

We investigated the influence of disturbance type (agriculture and silviculture) within forested landscapes, amount of forest cover within 1 km of the site, and local habitat characteristics on the...
