UNE’s Noah Perlut presents at UMaine on effects of agricultural management on migratory songbirds

On April 24, 2017, Noah Perlut, Ph.D., associate professor in the Department of Environmental Studies, gave a talk at the University of Maine, titled “A Full Life-cycle Approach to Understanding the Effects of Agricultural Management on Migratory Songbirds.” He described some of the key points that he has learned over the first 15 years of his life-history study of grassland birds in Vermont.

Perlut’s work explores how agricultural management affects these species’ reproductive success, annual survival, movement around the local landscape and migration to Argentina and back.

The event was sponsored by the Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Conservation Biology.
