Not sure of the scope of Sue's question. This may be the only research paper based on our local first arrival dates, but there are many, perhaps hundreds of articles on spring arrival dates and climate change/global warming. Is Sue specifically interested in local data?

J. 2003. The disproportionate effect of global warming on the arrival dates of short-distance migratory birds in North America. Ibis 145:484-495. that made use of the weekly readings of the lists to look at long-term changes in arrival dates of migrants in spring into Ithaca (a second data set of a similar type was also used in the paper from MA, if I remember). While the paper doesn't talk about changes in abundance, the climate-related link is via changes in timing of migration.

A good overview of the book. Here is a link to the pdf page. http://www.tompkinshosting.com/tompkinsweekly/TompkinsWeekly120409.pdf Also, she had emailed me with the following request which I forward in the event that someone may wish to help her with this. I am reluctant to just give out names of people to her without some expression of interest beforehand. If anyone does want to take this on, please email me and I will put you in touch with her. Now I have another question for you - or maybe I already asked it & we didn't have time to explore: Does anyone in the club have bird count numbers or data that might show whether/how bird populations have changed over past 35 years? Am working on something re: climate change & bird range expansion or northward expansion.... ~Sue Thanks in advance if you can help out.
