The role of behavior in tern conservation

Abstract: Behavioral research has long had an important role in the conservation of terns (Aves: Sternidae). Habitat management and restoration of breeding colony sites depends on knowledge of the cues used to select colony and nest sites. For example, conspecific attraction with playback and decoys is commonly used to bring terns to suitable colony sites and habitat modification is often used to increase the availability of suitable nest sites. Tern colonies are interconnected by dispersal, and a metapopulation approac… Show more

“…Climate change is currently identified as one of the greatest threats to Common Terns worldwide (Cabot and Nisbet 2013, Palestis 2014, Nisbet et al 2017. Issues related to climate change-including increased severity of storms, changes in food availability, and rising water levels-are important factors that may negatively affect Common Terns throughout their annual cycle (Cuthbert et al 2003, Cabot andNisbet 2013).…”

“…So why is it that these two disciplines rarely merge, despite now being the discipline of Conservation Behavior in its own right? This disconnect and where it occurs has been identified by Palestis(2014), and multiple times by Caro (e.g., 1999Caro (e.g., , 2007, whom contribute to this special column. Both Palestis (2014) and Caro (2007) suggest that behavioral ecologists have been "slow to link with conservation biologists" (Palestis, 2014).…”

“…Consequently, out of curiosity and a touch of skepticism that these disciplines rarely merge, I ran a simple analysis, finding that Caro (1999Caro ( , 2007 and Palestis (2014) seem to be correct. For this analysis, I did a search on Web of Science™ (Table 1), looking up the search terms "ethology", "animal behavior", "behavioral ecology" ('behavioral terms'), and "conservation biology", both in conjunction and independently, for the past 30 years, from .…”
