Nisbet, AuteurCapsule Kleptoparasitic activities of older chicks from earlier nests did not contribute to late reproductive declines. Aims To determine whether intraspecific interactions, such as kleptoparasitism and aggression, were experienced more frequent[...]

Feeny 1961-07-01Ibis, 103a(3)“We must not, I think, deny migration in general: because migration certainly does subsist in certain places, as my brother in Andalusia has fully informed me.

Article
H. Galbraith, Auteur ; J. J. Hatch, Auteur ; I. C. T. Nisbet, Auteur ; T. H. Kunz, AuteurWe used doubly-labelled water to measure field metabolic rates of breeding Common Terns Sterna hirundo, and hence to investigate differences in reproductive efficiency among birds of different ages. Field metabolic rates, activity patterns, chan[...]
Article
I. C. T. Nisbet, Auteur ; V. Apanius, Auteur ; M. S. Friar, AuteurWe studied the breeding performance of very old Common Terns (Sterna hirundo) at Bird Island, USA (41degrees40degreesN, 70degrees43degreesW) in 1999. We studied birds aged greater than or equal to 18 yr, comprising the oldest 5% of the birds bre[...]
Article
J. M. Arnold, Auteur ; J. J. Hatch, Auteur ; I. C. T. Nisbet, AuteurWe examined the relative contributions of egg size, parental quality and hatch-date to growth and survival of second-hatched chicks (those chicks making the greatest contribution to differences in productivity among pairs) by exchanging clutches[...]

J. M. Arnold, Auteur ; J. J. Hatch, Auteur ; I. C. T. Nisbet, AuteurReproductive success declines over the course of the breeding season in many bird species. Two categories of hypothesis have been evoked to explain this decline. The "timing" hypothesis suggests that seasonal declines in breeding success are att[...]
