Peach, AuteurIn common with many other insectivorous birds, the Common Swift Apus apus is undergoing population declines, with an estimated 57% reduction in abundance between 1995 and 2017 in the UK. The ultimate drivers of this decline are poorly understood[...]

Jenny C. Dunn, Auteur ; Antony J. Morris, Auteur ; Philip V. Grice, Auteur ; Will J. Peach, AuteurConservation measures providing food-rich habitats through agri-environment schemes (AES) have the potential to affect the demography and local abundance of species limited by food availability. The European Turtle Dove Streptopelia turtur is on[...]

Aniko Kovacs-Hostyanszki, Auteur ; Péter Batáry, Auteur ; Will J. Peach, Auteur ; Andras Baldi, AuteurCapsule Despite negative effects of inorganic fertilizer on weeds and invertebrates in cereal fields, impacts on bird usage were weak and non-linear.

Article
David L. Thomson, Auteur ; Stephen R. Baillie, Auteur ; Will J. Peach, AuteurWe present a method for studying post-fledging survival rates from data on national ringing recoveries. The approach extends the classical two-age-class models of Brownie et al. (1985) to include a third age-class of birds ringed as nestlings. T[...]
Article
Chris V. Wernham, Auteur ; Will J. Peach, AuteurRing recovery data were used to assess changes in the survival rates of Cormorants in Britain and Ireland between 1965 and 1994. It was found that 99% were ringed as nestlings, thus necessitating an assumption of constant reporting rate across a[...]
