Melville, Auteur ; Zhijun Ma, AuteurDans Ibis (161(4) 2019)Because migration is highly time-constrained and migration timing varies among individuals, the responses of migrants to food shortage at a refuelling site could differ between individuals that arrive early and late at the site. To test this hyp[...]

David S. Melville, Auteur ; Ying Chen, Auteur ; Zhijun Ma, AuteurWetlands along the Yellow Sea coast of China, which are a major staging area for shorebirds in the East Asian–Australasian Flyway, are in a state of crisis that threatens the future of this migration system. Populations of many shorebirds in the[...]

Chi-Yeung Choi, Auteur ; Phil F. Battley, Auteur ; Murray A. Potter, Auteur ; Ken G. Rogers, Auteur ; Zhijun Ma, AuteurBar-tailed Godwits Limosa lapponica and Great Knots Calidris tenuirostris are long-distance migratory shorebirds with declining numbers in the East Asian-Australasian Flyway. One of the most important staging sites for these two species during n[...]
Article
The widespread decline of migratory shorebirds in the East Asian-Australasian Flyway (EAAF) is one of the greatest crises for migrating birds. Among the migratory species with known population trends, 88% (22 of 25 species) show population decli[...]

Chiyeung Choi, Auteur ; Ning Hua, Auteur ; Christer Persson, Auteur ; Chungyu Chiang, Auteur ; Zhijun Ma, AuteurFor some populations of Dunlins (Calidris alpina), determining the age of individuals on the nonbreeding grounds can be difficult. This difficulty arises in part because some populations undergo their primary molt during the boreal summer, leavi[...]
Article
Chiyeung Choi, Auteur ; Ning Hua, Auteur ; Xiaojing Gan, Auteur ; Christer Persson, Auteur ; Qiang Ma, Auteur ; Hongxi Zang, Auteur ; Zhijun Ma, AuteurAlthough most shorebirds exhibit deferred migration and deferred breeding during their first summer, Dunlins (Calidris alpina) migrate to breeding areas and breed during their first summer.
