Niche-tracking migrants and niche-switching residents: evolution of climatic niches in New World warblers (Parulidae)

Abstract: Differences in life-history traits between tropical and temperate lineages are often attributed to differences in their climatic niche dynamics. For example, the more frequent appearance of migratory behaviour in temperate-breeding species than in species originally breeding in the tropics is believed to have resulted partly from tropical climatic stability and niche conservatism constraining tropical species from shifting their ranges. However, little is known about the patterns and processes underlying clima… Show more

“…The data used to calculate the thermal niche overlap scores were originally collected by the authors of this study in the same study regions, thereby ensuring that metrics associated with thermal sensitivity and sensitivity to forest conversion are regionally consistent. Thermal niche overlap metrics are a strong indicator of a species' sensitivity to the thermal environment (Gomez et al 2016), with higher thermal niche overlaps indicative of greater thermal sensitivity. For each species -and separately in the west and east -we calculated the thermal niche occupied in summer (breeding) and winter (non-breeding), defining the thermal niche as the area of the 95% minimum convex polygon of minimum and maximum daily temperatures associated with each bird observation (for details, see Srinivasan et al 2018).…”

“…For instance, not all individuals track the same resources under all circumstances and an environmental trait that is closely tracked in one area may be ignored in another (Gomez et al . ). This is the case for Blackcaps, which change their food preferences between the seasons from a diet of insects during the breeding season to a predominantly frugivorous diet during winter (Jordano & Herrera ).…”

“…As a result, birds may exhibit either niche‐tracking or niche‐switching depending on their degree of migratory behaviour (Gomez et al . ). However, early approaches to detecting niche‐tracking behaviour were probably flawed by methodological difficulties, including those associated with multi‐species approaches (Peterson , Laube et al .…”
