It is critical habitat for billions of birds; more than 300 species regularly breed there. After the breeding season, many boreal birds migrate to seasonal habitats across the United States, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America. This volume brings together new research on boreal bird biology and conservation. It highlights the importance of the region to the global avifauna and to the connectivity between the boreal forest and ecoregions throughout the Americas. The contributions showcase a unique set of perspectives on the migration, wintering ecology, and conservation of bird communities that are tied to the boreal forest in ways that may not have been previously considered.Studies in avian biology ;no. 41.Forest birdsCanadaForest birdsAlaskaBirdsEcologyNorth AmericaTaiga ecologyNorth AmericaForest birdsForest birdsBirdsEcologyTaiga ecology639.9/78Wells Jeffrey V(Jeffrey Vance),1964-1603317MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910964376203321Boreal birds of North America4550413UNINA$50.3505/11/2016Bio06357oam 2200649 c 450 991095578570332120260302090207.0978383827680938382768099783838276809(MiAaPQ)EBC7135231(Au-PeEL)EBL7135231(CKB)25315252600041(ibidem)9783838276809(EXLCZ)992531525260004120260302d2022 uy 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierShreds of War: Fates from the Donbas Frontline 2014-2019 With a Foreword by Olexy Haran /Ildikó Eperjesi, Oleksandr Kachura, Andreas Umland, Olexiy Haran1st ed.Hannoveribidem20221 online resource (345 pages)color illustrationsUkrainian Voices27Print version: Eperjesi, Ildikó.

The homes of tens of thousands were destroyed. Many were captured and tortured, millions ousted from their homes. The lives of many were broken. Volunteers started to collect food, clothes and even weapons for the frontline. Charity organizations transferred donations to the Donets’ Basin (Donbas). Priests became chaplains for soldiers. Journalists and photographers flooded into the war-zone and sometimes became involved in the events. A Hungarian and Ukrainian journalist, Eperjesi and Kachura had the opportunity to meet and talk to many of these characters. The book provides a tableau of the emblematic figures of the war in the Donbas. It not only presents tragedies, but also human moments and noble deeds. The two journalists show how the lives of ordinary people have changed as a result of the horrors of war. They also spoke to pro-Russian militiamen and even with a Russian military officer captured in Ukraine. Shreds of War is one of the few authentic books with on-the-spot coverage, interviews, and dramatic photos documenting the war in Eastern Ukraine.Ukrainian voices (Stuttgart, Germany) ;Volume 27.DonbasDonbassKriegRussiaRusslandUkraineWarDonbasDonbassKriegRussiaRusslandUkraineWar947.7086Eperjesi Ildikóaut1714479Kachura OleksandrautUmland AndreasedtHaran OlexiyauiMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910955785703321Shreds of war4108317UNINA
