The Role of Intrinsic Factors in Explaining Range Shifts of European Breeding Birds: A Meta‐Analysis by Femke E. M. Warmer, Wessel A. vanVliet, Pim vanHooft, Anouschka R. Hof

“…Drivers of range shifts may, however, differ per range shift type. We conducted a meta‐analysis to uncover the role of intrinsic factors (nine species functional traits and five spatial abundance characteristics) in explaining six contemporary range shift types (range size changes: expansion/contraction, relative change and rate of change; latitudinal shifts: abundance shift, centroid shift and range margin shift) in European breeding birds (n = 270). …”
