Minimal changes in heart rate of incubating American Oystercatchers (Haematopus palliatus) in response to human activity

CONDOR, 116(3), 493–503.

author keywords: American Oystercatcher; heart rate; human activity; artificial egg; physiology; stress; disturbance; habituation
TL;DR: With the exception of high-speed, low-altitude military overflights, it is found that oystercatcher heart rates were influenced by most types of human activity, and this noninvasive technique may be appropriate for other studies of stress in nesting birds. (via Semantic Scholar)
