Spring tree species use by migrating Yellow-rumped warblers in relation to phenology and food availability.(Report)
Sep 01, 2009; ... Global climate change has affected the phenology of many biological events (Root et al. 2003, Parmesan 2006, Rosenzweig et al. 2008). Long-term data over the last 40-100 years in Europe and North America show advancing phenological events including earlier spring flowering (Bradley et al ....
