Population Ecology of Red Knots (C. c. roselaari) in the Pacific-Americas Flyway
The Red Knot ( Calidris canutus roselaari) is long-distance migrant in the Pacific-Americas Flyway. The subspecies relies on a small number of stopover sites between Mexico and Alaska during migration. Extreme site fidelity and small population size make it vulnerable to environmental impacts and the effects of climate change.
