MASTERING AMERICAN ENGLISH: A CROSS-CULTURAL ANALYSIS OF CHALLENGES FACED BY FRANCOPHONE AND UKRAINIAN-SPEAKING LEARNERS IN THE FIELDS OF BUSINESS, HEALTHCARE, AND ECOLOGY Open
This paper examines the linguistic challenges faced by two distinct groups of non-native English speakers – Francophone learners from Senegal in business contexts, and Ukrainian-speaking learners in healthcare and ecology settings. The aut…
Two decades of change in nonbreeding population sizes of shorebirds and other waterbirds in the Iwik area of Parc National du Banc d’Arguin, Mauritania Open
Migratory waterbirds depend on networks of wetlands during their seasonal migrations between breeding grounds and nonbreeding areas. The Parc National du Banc d’Arguin, Mauritania, is one such site that migratory waterbirds of the East Atl…
Environmental factors influencing red knot (<i>Calidris canutus islandica</i>) departure times of relocation flights within the non‐breeding period Open
Deciding when to depart on long‐distance, sometimes global, movements can be especially important for flying species. Adverse weather conditions can affect energetic flight costs and navigational ability. While departure timings and condit…
Cause for caution: Response to Forum Contribution by van der Meer and Folmer Open
Triggered by the disappearance of the bivalve‐eating red knots Calidris canutus from feeding areas in the western Dutch Wadden Sea after these intertidal flats were exposed to the harvesting of edible cockles Cerastoderma edule by shallow‐…
Validating <span>ATLAS</span> : A regional‐scale high‐throughput tracking system Open
Fine‐scale tracking of animal movement is important to understand the proximate mechanisms of animal behaviour. The reverse‐GPS system—ATLAS—uses inexpensive (~€25), lightweight (90% at 15 of 16 stationary sites. Tags on birds (1/6 Hz) on …

WATLAS: high throughput and real-time tracking of many small birds in the Dutch Wadden Sea Open
Background Tracking animal movement is important for understanding how animals interact with their (changing) environment, and crucial for predicting and explaining how animals are affected by anthropogenic effects. The Wadden Sea is a UNE…
Exploration speed in captivity predicts foraging tactics and diet in free‐living red knots Open
Variation in foraging tactics and diet is usually attributed to differences in morphology, experience and prey availability. Recently, consistent individual differences in behaviour (personality) have been shown to be associated with forag…

Central‐West Siberian‐breeding Bar‐tailed Godwits (<i>Limosa lapponica</i>) segregate in two morphologically distinct flyway populations Open
Long‐distance migratory species often include multiple breeding populations, with distinct migration routes, wintering areas and annual‐cycle timing. Detailed knowledge on population structure and migratory connectivity provides the basis …

Validating a high-throughput tracking system: ATLAS as a regional-scale alternative to GPS Open
Fine-scale tracking of animal movement is important to understand the proximate mechanisms of animal behaviour. While GPS tracking is an excellent tool for measuring animal movement, trade-offs between tag weight, cost and lifespan limit i…

A red knot as a black swan: how a single bird shows navigational abilities during repeat crossings of the Greenland Icecap Open
Despite the wealth of studies on seasonal movements of birds between southern nonbreeding locations and High Arctic breeding locations, the key mechanisms of navigation during these migrations remain elusive. A flight along the shortest po…
Red knots (<i>Calidris canutus islandica</i>) manage body mass with dieting and activity Open
Mass regulation is birds is well documented. For example, birds can increase body mass in response to lower availability and/or predictability of food and decrease body mass in response to increased predation danger. Birds also demonstrate…
Evolutionary design of a flexible, seasonally migratory, avian phenotype: why trade gizzard mass against pectoral muscle mass? Open
Migratory birds undergo impressive body remodelling over the course of an annual cycle. Prior to long-distance flights, red knots ( Calidris canutus islandica ) reduce gizzard mass while increasing body mass and pectoral muscle mass. Altho…
Within-Individual Canalization Contributes to Age-Related Increases in Trait Repeatability: A Longitudinal Experiment in Red Knots Open
Age-related increases in the repeatable expression of labile phenotypic traits are often assumed to arise from an increase in among-individual variance due to differences in developmental plasticity or by means of state-behavior feedbacks.…

Energetic solutions of Rock Sandpipers to harsh winter conditions rely on prey quality Open
Rock Sandpipers Calidris ptilocnemis have the most northerly non‐breeding distribution of any shorebird in the Pacific Basin (upper Cook Inlet, Alaska; 61°N, 151°W). In terms of freezing temperatures, persistent winds and pervasive ice, th…
An experimental test of state–behaviour feedbacks: gizzard mass and foraging behaviour in red knots Open
Summary Animals frequently exhibit consistent among‐individual differences in behavioural and physiological traits that are inherently flexible. Why should individuals differ consistently in their expression of labile traits? Recently, pos…
