Quantifying the per-capita contribution of all components of a migratory cycle: a modelling framework (2022)
Journal Article
Smith, P., Guiver, C., & Adams, B. (2022). Quantifying the per-capita contribution of all components of a migratory cycle: a modelling framework. Ecological Modelling, 471, Article 110056. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2022.110056

Migratory species make use of different habitats and pathways at different life stages, and in different seasons. Ecological management strategies proposed for migratory species should acknowledge the importance of each component of the migratory cyc...
