| Summary |
Current rates of climate change are faster than birds can evolve, leading to serious mismatch of migration and seasonal or phenological timing. The result is a concomitant decline of migratory bird species. The editors of this volume have assembled a team of leading experts to synthesize and review what is known of the phenological asynchrony associated with the timing and patterns of North American bird migration. This will be among the most stark and alarming accounts of the adverse impacts of climate change on a continental scale |
