Weather impacts on interactions between nesting birds, nest-dwelling ectoparasites and ants
Abstract Weather has a dominant impact on organisms, including their life histories and interspecific interactions. Yet, for nesting birds, and the arthropods inhabiting bird nests, the direct and cascading effects of weather are poorly known. We explored the influence of ambient temperatures and ra...
