| the effect of extreme spring weather on body condition and stress physiology in lapland longspurs and white-crowned sparrows breeding in the arctic. | climate change is causing rapid shifts in temperature while also increasing the frequency, duration, and intensity of extreme weather. in the northern hemisphere, the spring of 2013 was characterized as extreme due to record high snow cover and low temperatures. studies that describe the effects of extreme weather on phenology across taxa are limited while morphological and physiological responses remain poorly understood. stress physiology, as measured through baseline and stress-induced concen ... | 2016 | 27449342 |
