I’m excited to share the final chapter of my PhD published in #ProceedingsB @royalsocietypublishing.org ! 🌳🏙️🪺 We compared Great tit laying date responses to spring temperature between urban and forest habitats across five study systems : royalsocietypublishing.org/rspb/article...
Facing rising temperatures in urban environments: the role of phenological plasticity in an urban-dwelling passerine, Parus major
Abstract. The capacity for birds to adjust their breeding time to variation in spring temperature via plasticity is crucial for insectivorous passerines in

Led by Viktoriia Radchuk, an international collaboration shows phenological shifts in response to changing temperatures allow populations to remain stable or even increase in numbers. Support from #sDiv @idiv-research.bsky.social
