Are arrival date and body mass after spring migration influenced by large-scale environmental factors in a migratory seabird?
Changes in the timing of migratory events have been observed recently in many migratory species, most likely in response to climatic change. In the common tern Sterna hirundo we examined such changes in spring arrival date and body mass based on a 19 year individual-based longitudinal data from a tr...
