Warming in the land of the midnight sun: breeding birds may suffer greater heat stress at high- vs low-Arctic sites
R. S. O'Connor, A. Le Pogam, K. G. Young…·F. Vézina
This study predicts the temperature threshold for snow bunting breeding performance and finds high-Arctic sites experience more severe heat stress than low-Arctic sites due to prolonged periods of exceeding the critical temperature.
