MARC recordGlobal warming and egg size of birds / A. Järvinen.
| Title: | Global warming and egg size of birds / A. Järvinen. |
| Author(s): | Järvinen, A. |
| Date: | 1994. |
| In: | Ecography. (1994.), Vol. 17(1) (1994) |
| Abstract: | Global warming on animals is little researched. In northern areas mean temperature is believed to be rising, as have mean spring temperatures in Finnish Lapland in last decades. In 1975-1993 mean air temperature during main egg-laying period of pied flycatcher Ficedula hypoleuca population correlated positively and significantly with mean egg volume of that population. So global warming may help birds rapidly conquer new areas when they become available and compensate for rising mortality rates elsewhere. |
