From individual to population level: Temperature and snow cover modulate fledging success through breeding phenology in greylag geese (Anser anser)
Abstract Local weather conditions may be used as environmental cues by animals to optimize their breeding behaviour, and could be affected by climate change. We measured associations between climate, breeding phenology, and reproductive output in greylag geese (Anser anser) across 29 years (1990–201...
