Reviews
"...a valuable reference for ornithologists, for those interested in specific biotic effects of climate change, and for those looking
for a portal to data sets amenable to building predictive climate-effect models."
- Jason Jones, Vassar College, for ECOLOGY
"Given
the enormouse proliferation of research projects and literature on this subject, the authors have achieved this review competently and
clearly, providing guidelines for future studies but pointing out the pitfalls and problems...a really fascinating resume of our current
understanding...the editors are to be congratulated on making the results more generally available. It is a publication that every ornithological
library should hold..."
- BRITISH BIRDS
"One of the strengths of this book is the breadth of topics covered in a relatively short volume...Chapters
on timing of migration and the energetics of migration are at their strongest when discussing the specifics of avian ecology...The editors
provide a broad range of questions that will interest academic avian biologists...Birds and Climate Change is at its
best in helping scientists take advantage of a 'unique opportunity to study the adaptation of organisms to their changing environments'.
Those seeking to understand and perhaps limit the impacts of human-caused environmental change on birds and other organisms can certainly
benefit from the insight presented here."
-John P. McCarty, Department of Biology, University of Nebraska in THE CONDOR
