SUMMARY:Effects of Extreme Temperatures on Resource Selection and Nestling Diet of American Kestrels in Agroecosystems
DESCRIPTION:AOS Student Research Grant Seminar\nThis event is postponed. \nPresenter: Mary Badger\, PhD candidate\, University of California Davis; 2024 Joseph Grinnell Research Grant winner \n \nExtreme heat driven by climate change poses a growing challenge for birds breeding in agricultural landscapes. This research examines how extreme temperatures and land use interact to shape resource selection\, movement\, nestling provisioning\, and diet in breeding American kestrels. Integrating GPS tracking\, nest box monitoring\, fine-scale temperature measurements\, and environmental DNA allows adult behavior\, space use\, and nestling diet to be evaluated across varying thermal and landscape conditions. \nMore about the Student Research Grant Seminar Series

SUMMARY:Mapping vertical distributions of birds in old-growth and second-growth trees at the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest
DESCRIPTION:AOS Student Research Grant Seminar\nPresenter: Nina Ferrari\, Ph.D. Candidate\, Oregon State University; 2023 Werner and Hildegard Hesse Research Grant winner \n\nI will revisit some of Robert MacArthur’s questions around vertical partition as a mechanism for species coexistence in forests. Specifically\, my research investigates the vertical distributions of songbirds in trees in the Pacific Northwest. I use territory mapping playback and bioacoustics methodologies to examine the degree vertical partitioning in this ecosystem and the potential drivers behind it. \nMore about the Student Research Grant Seminar Series

SUMMARY:Vocal repertoire in a Neotropical cooperative breeder: Can specific calls define an individual\, breeding status or threat?
DESCRIPTION:AOS Student Research Grant Seminar\nPresenter: Juan Ripari\, Postdoctoral Fellow\, Ecology\, Genetics and Evolution Institute of Buenos Aires; 2024 Postdoctoral Research Grant winner \n \nIn this study\, we analyze the vocal repertoire of the Greyish-baywing (Agelaioides badius\, hereafter baywing)\, a Neotropical bird widely distributed in north-central Argentina that exhibits cooperative breeding\, whose helpers are often related. Combining focal observations and predator defence experiments we aimed to describe the structure and function of their vocal repertoire. \nMore about the Student Research Grant Seminar Series

SUMMARY:Secondary dispersal and philopatry in cooperatively breeding Acorn Woodpeckers
DESCRIPTION:AOS Student Research Grant Seminar\nPresenter: Chi Wei\, Ph.D. student\, Old Dominion University; 2023 Student Research Grant\nwinner \n \nWhile natal dispersal in birds has been relatively well studied\, secondary movement patterns (i.e.\, when a bird disperses from a breeding territory) remain less explored in social species. Using a 57-year dataset of Acorn Woodpeckers at Hastings Natural History Reservation (California\, USA)\, I examine how demographic and ecological factors shape secondary movement decisions across breeding individuals\, including how some breeders return to their natal territory. \nMore about the Student Research Grant Seminar Series

SUMMARY:Low extra-pair paternity and climatic associations in a Patagonian population of Chilean Swallows
DESCRIPTION:AOS Student Research Grant Seminar\nPresenter: Bruno Riovitti\, Ph.D. student\, University of Buenos Aires\, 2023 Student Research Grant winner \n \nIntraspecific variation in extra-pair paternity (EPP) continues to intrigue researchers\, as the factors shaping this trait remain only partially understood. In this talk\, I present genomic parentage analyses from a Patagonian population of Chilean Swallows (Tachycineta leucopyga) and resulting estimates of EPP rates \, motivated by previous reports of exceptionally low EPP rates in the species at high southern latitudes. I show that EPP rates remain consistently low across two breeding seasons and that EPP probability is significantly associated with local climatic conditions. \nMore about the Student Research Grant Seminar Series
