5. Resource variation and migration in neotropical birds Research question: What factors are important in determining whether a species migrates or not? (Boyle & Conway 2007) Hypothesis: Migration evolved to allow individuals to: (1) take advantage of spatial variation in conditions and (2) avoid seasonal resource depression at different locations Prediction: Species exposed to high degree of fluctuation in environmental conditions and resources will be more likely to migrate than species that live in more stable resource environments From Nordell and Valone, Animal Behavior: Concepts, Methods, and Applications, © 2014 by Oxford University Press Featured Research

7. Resource variation and migration in neotropical birds Methods: – Collected previously published data on 300 species in Tyranni – For each species, determined: Migrant or sedentary Insectivore or frugivore Habitat use (tropical forest habitats more stable than nonforest habitats) From Nordell and Valone, Animal Behavior: Concepts, Methods, and Applications, © 2014 by Oxford University Press Featured Research

8. Resource variation and migration in neotropical birds Results: – Insectivorous species in forest habitats were less likely to be migratory than nonforest species – No relationship between habitat type and migration in frugivorous species Conclusion: – Fluctuations in resource levels and environmental conditions can affect migratory behavior From Nordell and Valone, Animal Behavior: Concepts, Methods, and Applications, © 2014 by Oxford University Press Featured Research

18. Competition and migratory behavior of newts Research question: How do environmental conditions affect migratory behavior? (Grayson & Wilbur 2009) Hypothesis: Competition for resources will result in more individuals migrating Prediction: As density increases, more individuals should migrate From Nordell and Valone, Animal Behavior: Concepts, Methods, and Applications, © 2014 by Oxford University Press Featured Research

19. Competition and migratory behavior of newts Methods: – Red-spotted newt (Notophthalmus viridescens) – Small enclosures around large pond – Treatments: Density of newts (low, medium, or high) Sex ratio (male or female biased) – Measured migration out of enclosures From Nordell and Valone, Animal Behavior: Concepts, Methods, and Applications, © 2014 by Oxford University Press Featured Research

20.

21.

Competition and migratory behavior of dippers Methods: – American dippers (Cinclus mexicanus) – Uniquely banded individuals – Observed migration behavior over seven years From Nordell and Valone, Animal Behavior: Concepts, Methods, and Applications, © 2014 by Oxford University Press Featured Research

24. Competition and migratory behavior of dippers Results: – 152 residents and 90 migrants – Residents fledged 2.6 more offspring than migrants Conclusion: – The fitness of residents is higher than that of migrants; migratory behavior appears to be condition-dependent From Nordell and Valone, Animal Behavior: Concepts, Methods, and Applications, © 2014 by Oxford University Press Featured Research
