This study examines how seasonal migration affects phylogenetic community structure in North American passerines, finding that migration leads to more phylogenetically clustered communities overall but greater overdispersion at smaller taxonomic scales.

This study examines the spatiotemporal structure of the annual cycle in migratory birds, showing migratory periods are consistent across species and breeding/nonbreeding time is inversely related to migration distance.

The paper creates AvianLexiconAtlas, a database categorizing English bird common names into biological or cultural descriptors, finding 89% of names relate to biology/ecology.
