Decline of the North American avifauna

KV Rosenberg, AM Dokter, PJ Blancher, JR Sauer… - Science, 2019 - science.org
Species extinctions have defined the global biodiversity crisis, but extinction begins with
loss in abundance of individuals that can result in compositional and functional changes of …

High-intensity urban light installation dramatically alters nocturnal bird migration

BM Van Doren, KG Horton, AM Dokter… - Proceedings of the …, 2017 - National Acad Sciences
Billions of nocturnally migrating birds move through increasingly photopolluted skies,
relying on cues for navigation and orientation that artificial light at night (ALAN) can impair. …

Bird migration flight altitudes studied by a network of operational weather radars

AM Dokter, F Liechti, H Stark… - Journal of the …, 2011 - royalsocietypublishing.org
A fully automated method for the detection and quantification of bird migration was developed
for operational C-band weather radar, measuring bird density, speed and direction as a …

Inhomogeneous dynamics in confined water nanodroplets

AM Dokter, S Woutersen… - Proceedings of the …, 2006 - National Acad Sciences
The effect of confinement on the dynamical properties of liquid water was studied by mid-infrared
ultrafast pump–probe spectroscopy on HDO:D 2 O in reverse micelles. By preparing …

Seasonal abundance and survival of North America's migratory avifauna determined by weather radar

AM Dokter, A Farnsworth, D Fink… - Nature ecology & …, 2018 - nature.com
Avian migration is one of Earth’s largest processes of biomass transport, involving billions of
birds. We estimated continental biomass flows of nocturnal avian migrants across the …

Bright lights in the big cities: migratory birds' exposure to artificial light

…, BM Van Doren, FA La Sorte, AM Dokter… - Frontiers in Ecology …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Many species of migratory birds have evolved the ability to migrate at night, and the recent
and rapid expansion of artificial light at night has markedly altered the nighttime sky through …

Unexpected diversity in socially synchronized rhythms of shorebirds

M Bulla, M Valcu, AM Dokter, AG Dondua… - Nature, 2016 - nature.com
The behavioural rhythms of organisms are thought to be under strong selection, influenced
by the rhythmicity of the environment 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 . Such behavioural rhythms are well studied …

[PDF][PDF] Arctic geese tune migration to a warming climate but still suffer from a phenological mismatch

TK Lameris, HP van der Jeugd, G Eichhorn, AM Dokter… - Current Biology, 2018 - cell.com
Climate warming challenges animals to advance their timing of reproduction [1], but many
animals appear to be unable to advance at the same rate as their food species [2, 3]. As a …

Anomalous slowing down of the vibrational relaxation of liquid water upon nanoscale confinement

AM Dokter, S Woutersen, HJ Bakker - Physical review letters, 2005 - APS
We study the vibrational dynamics of nanodroplets of liquid water with femtosecond two-color
midinfrared pump-probe spectroscopy. For the smallest nanodroplet, containing 10–15 …

Revealing patterns of nocturnal migration using the European weather radar network

C Nilsson, AM Dokter, L Verlinden… - …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Nocturnal avian migration flyways remain an elusive concept, as we have largely lacked
methods to map their full extent. We used the network of European weather radars to …
