author keywords: avian; bird; citizen science; clutch size; incubation temperature; season; Sialia sialis
TL;DR:
This study shows that characteristics of the night led to behavioural changes in features of early morning incubation that were evident at both continental and local scales, and affected nest temperature.

The role of citizen science in addressing grand challenges in food and agriculture research
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 285(1891), 20181977.
Contributors: S. Ryan *, N. Adamson*, A. Aktipis *, L. Andersen *, R. Austin* , L. Barnes, M. Beasley, K. Bedell *
author keywords: citizen science; agriculture; grand challenges; sustainable development goals; extension; food science
MeSH headings : Agriculture / standards; Agriculture / trends; Community Participation; Food; Research / standards; Research / trends; United States
TL;DR:
It is argued there is no better time to foster greater collaboration between these fields given the trend of shrinking Extension programmes, the increasing need to apply innovative solutions to address rising demands on agricultural systems, and the exponential growth of the field of citizen science.

TL;DR:
In all three geographic regions egg rejection rates were negligible and not statistically different from background rates of disappearance of control eggs, suggesting that the House Sparrow is not a suitable model species for egg rejection experiments on a global scale.

Biparental nest-attendance in Chilean Swallows (Tachycineta meyeni) breeding in Ushuaia, Argentina
Emu - Austral Ornithology, 115(1), 76–79.
TL;DR:
Examining incubation behaviour of Chilean Swallows nesting in a cold environment at the southern tip of Argentina and the temperature regime of incubation concluded that researchers should be cautious when making conclusions using data from temperature loggers in situations where male attendance at nests during incubation is possible.
