Contributors to this volume offer new research on extinction
processes in birds, nest predation, and song systems, and describes
a graphical model that helps predict the reproductive consequences
of time allocation between the competing demands of guarding young
birds and foraging for food. Current Ornithology is the only
English-language publication currently devoted exclusively to
extensive reviews and synthesis of topics pertaining to all aspects
of the biology of birds. Chapters fall under such diverse rubrics
as ecology, evolution, behavior, phylogeny, behavioral ecology,
anatomy and physiology, and conservation biology. All authors are
leading authorities on their subjects, and each chapter is refereed
by experts in the topics covered. Although all chapters focus
primarily on birds, some topics, such as the social cognition of
birds as compared to primates (Volume 13), have significant
application to disciplines outside of ornithology. Current
Ornithology aims to provide an accessible, up-to-date, accurate
source of data and to contribute to conceptual generalization and
unification across the biological sciences.
