Reviews
"[The authors] do an excellent job of reviewing conceptual and practical approaches that link the science of climate change ecology to bird conservation practice...bringing the major themes in avian climate change biology together under one roof is an important achievement." -- Lars Y. Pomara, Southern Research Station, USDA Forest Service, NC, USA, Journal of Field Ornithology, "Although only 9 years after the first edition, the amount of new information presented is immense in terms of ecology, evolution, and conservation...replete with highly informative figures, text boxes, graphs, and tables...a useful and enjoyable read to every ecologist, evolutionary biologist, ornithologist, conservationist, and those interested in climate-change ecology." -- Conservation Biology "[The authors] do an excellent job of reviewing conceptual and practical approaches that link the science of climate change ecology to bird conservation practice...bringing the major themes in avian climate change biology together under one roof is an important achievement." -- Lars Y.

Synopsis
This new edition provides an exhaustive and up-to-date synthesis of the rapidly expanding literature on birds and climate change., Climate change issues are attracting rapidly increasing interest from a wide range of biologists due to their unprecedented effects on global biodiversity, although there remains a lack of general knowledge as to the environmental consequences of such rapid change. Compared with any other class of animals, birds provide more long-term data and extensive time series, a more geographically and taxonomically diverse source of information, a richer source of data on a greater range of topics dealing with the effects of climate change, and a longer tradition of extensive research. The first edition of the book was widely cited and this new edition continues to provide an exhaustive and up-to-date synthesis of our rapidly expanding level of knowledge as it relates to birds, highlighting new methods and areas for future research.
