AN ASSESSMENT OF BIRD HABITAT QUALITY USING POPULATION GROWTH RATES

Survival and reproduction directly affect population growth rate (λ), making λ a fundamental parameter for assessing habitat quality. We used field data, literature review, and a computer simulation to predict annual productivity and λ for several species of landbirds breeding in floodplain and upla...
