In this episode, we are joined by our guest Travis Thompson to take a deep dive into the 2023 paper titled " Sixty Years of Community-science data suggest earlier fall migration and short-stopping of waterfowl in North America" by Amelia Cox et al. In which, the scientists asked the questions: Is climate change shifting duck migrations through space and time? Are ducks migrating earlier or later? Are they not migrating as far? Are less ducks making it to historic ranges? What implications does this have on waterfowl management in the future?
We discuss the potential implications of this data, and how it can be used to improve our management strategy; including moving season dates, focusing on management of resident species, and much more.
