Cheniere forest as stopover habitat for migrant landbirds: Immediate effects of Hurricane Rita Cheniere forest as stopover habitat for migrant landbirds: Immediate effects of Hurricane Rita
It is not known whether en route fall migratory birds (August-October) are likely to suffer more from direct or secondary effects of hurricanes. On September 24, 2005, Hurricane Rita wreaked havoc on Louisiana's coast by toppling trees over vast areas and by stripping away microhabitats that harbor the invertebrates and produce the fruits upon which migrant landbirds depend (e.g., canopy...

Coastal forests of the Gulf of Mexico: A description and some thoughts on their conservation Coastal forests of the Gulf of Mexico: A description and some thoughts on their conservation
Millions of Nearctic-Neotropical landbirds move through the coastal forests of the Gulf of Mexico each spring and autumn as they migrate across and around the gulf. Migration routes in the gulf region are not static—they shift year to year and season to season according to prevailing wind patterns. Given the dynamic nature of migration routes, coastal forests around the Gulf of Mexico...

Migratory bird pathways and the Gulf of Mexico: Importance of Louisiana's coast Migratory bird pathways and the Gulf of Mexico: Importance of Louisiana's coast
Because of its geographic position, Louisiana plays an important role in the hemispheric-scale phenomenon known as the Nearctic-Neotropical bird migration system. Each year millions of landbirds migrate across or near to the coast of the Gulf of Mexico. Birds migrate in large, broad fronts that sometimes exceed 2 million individuals, and there is an advantage for them to take a direct...

Using radar to understand migratory birds and their habitats: Critical needs for the Gulf of Mexico Using radar to understand migratory birds and their habitats: Critical needs for the Gulf of Mexico
Nearly all Neotropical migratory landbird species of the eastern United States as well as many western species use Louisiana and the northern Gulf of Mexico coast during their transcontinental migrations each spring and fall. Radar has determined that hundreds of millions of birds make the nocturnal crossing of the Gulf of Mexico resulting in daily flights of as many as 2.5 million...
