    The Journal of Field Ornithology (JFO) is the quarterly publication of the Association of Field Ornithologists. JFO publishes original articles that emphasize the descriptive or experimental study of birds in their natural habitats. Articles describing techniques or methodological refinements must have relevance beyond a single species or study system. Contributions are welcomed from throughout the world. JFO is especially interested in studies conducted in the Neotropics and those involving participation by nonprofessional ornithologists. The Journal of Field Ornithology is available on BioOne through the 2005 volume. Current contents are available via Wiley.

    In 2014, The Condor became The Condor: Ornithological Applications, an international, peer-reviewed journal that publishes original research, syntheses, and assessments that address ornithological applications in two ways: the application of scientific theory and methods to the conservation, management, and ecology of birds; and the application of ornithological knowledge to conservation and management policy and other issues of importance to society. The journal aims to reach both research ornithologists and practitioners. The Condor: Ornithological Applications is an online journal, with current articles published weekly. Posted articles have a DOI and final page numbers for citation. Issues are printed on a quarterly basis. The Condor began in 1899 as the journal of the Cooper Ornithological Club, a group of ornithologists in California. Since those early days, the Cooper Ornithological Society has grown to become an international organization, and The Condor has developed into one of the world’s foremost ornithological journals. Past issues of The Condor are also available on SORA, the open access Searchable Ornithological Research Archive hosted by the University of New Mexico, and for institutional subscribers through BioOne or JSTOR. Prior to 2014 the journal was subtitled An International Journal of Avian Biology.

    In 2014, The Auk became The Auk: Ornithological Advances, an international, peer-reviewed journal that publishes original research and scholarship advancing the fundamental scientific knowledge of bird species and broad biological concepts (e.g., ecology, evolution, behavior, physiology, genetics) through studies of bird species. Articles often introduce or employ innovative empirical and theoretical approaches and analyses. The Auk: Ornithological Advances is an online journal, with current articles published weekly. Posted articles have a DOI and final page numbers for citation. Issues are printed on a quarterly basis. For more than 100 years, The Auk has been the official publication of the American Ornithologists’ Union and has published original reports on the biology of birds. In 2009, The Auk was honored as one of the 100 most influential journals of biology and medicine over the past 100 years. Today, it remains at the top of peer-reviewed journals focusing on birds, with its 2012 impact factor ranked above all others in the field of ornithology. Past issues of The Auk are also available on SORA, the open access Searchable Ornithological Research Archive hosted by the University of New Mexico, and for institutional subscribers through BioOne or JSTOR. Prior to 2014 The Auk was subtitled An International Journal of Ornithology.

    More information about "Mixed Species Bird Flocks: A Bibliography"
    Mixed-species flocks of birds are exciting models for community ecology because they can be found throughout the world, and thus by studying communities with different evolutionary histories one can search for general patterns in community structure. Here we list those descriptive studies that we have encountered that are in terrestrial landscapes. Please note that by “terrestrial landscapes” we exclude ducks, pelagic species, seabirds, shorebirds and wading birds. We also have some notable weaknesses in the database that we’d like to correct: Theses are generally not listed (especially if they have been subsequently published) Articles in languages other than English may be missed If you have an addition to the database or a correction of any kind, please e-mail us. Collectively, we also have many of the articles listed here in electronic form, and should you wish for copies, again we encourage e-mail. If this document was helpful to you, we ask that you reference it, as follows: Goodale, E. and Sridhar, H. 2010. Mixed-species bird flocks: a bibliography. Internet database at https://sites.google...ciesbirdflocks/'>https://sites.google...ciesbirdflocks/. Accessed: Date. Last edited: September 16, 2010. NOTE: HOW TO DOWNLOAD THIS DATABASE. Go to https://spreadsheets...=en&output=html'>https://spreadsheets...=en&output=html. Go to the very bottom and click on the "edit" tab.
