Aim Rapid climate change is reshaping Arctic ecosystems and altering species' breeding distributions. We assessed climate‐driven breeding range shifts of Arctic birds and examined how functional traits, including morphology, habitat breadth, and thermal niche breadth, influence these shifts. Location European and North American Arctic. Taxon Arctic‐breeding bird species in the orders Anseriformes, Charadriiformes and Passerifo...

Predation, Climate and Species Traits Interact to Shape Global Patterns of Avian Nest ArchitectureNARA Subscribed
Aim Bird nest structures are critical for reproductive success and vary widely across species. However, the ecological and evolutionary drivers behind enclosed nests (domes and cavities) remain unclear, with previous studies yielding conflicting results. Leveraging recently available comprehensive nest trait data, we aim to clarify whether enclosed nests primarily function as protection from predation or for regulation of micr...
The SPoRC Stock Assessment Package: A Generalized Next‐Generation Platform to Assess Spatial, Age and Sex‐Structured PopulationsNARA Subscribed
Fisheries managers increasingly rely on stock assessment models to provide sustainable management advice, which must balance complex and competing objectives. Although assessment models necessitate simplifying assumptions, there is increasing recognition to improve the integration of realistic biological and fishery dynamics. While ongoing and future development of increasingly complex stock assessments requires increased capa...
SNAPSHOT USA 2024: Year 6 of the Coordinated National Camera Trap Survey of the United StatesNARA Subscribed
Motivation SNAPSHOT USA is an annual, multi‐contributor camera trap survey of mammals across the United States. The growing SNAPSHOT USA dataset is intended for tracking the spatial and temporal responses of mammal populations to changes in land use, land cover and climate. These data will be useful for exploring the drivers of spatial and temporal changes in relative abundance and distribution, as well as the impacts of speci...
