Birds are particularly good model systems since their life history, behaviour, and physiology are especially influenced by directly measurable environmental factors such as light and sound pollution. It is therefore relatively easy to compare urban individuals and populations with their rural counterparts. This accessible textfocuses on the behavioural and physiological mechanisms which facilitate adaptation and on the evolutionary process 606 $aBirds$xEcology 606 $aBirds$xEcophysiology 606 $aUrban animals$xEcology 606 $aUrban ecology (Biology)$xEnvironmental aspects 606 $aUrbanization$xBehavior 606 $aBirds$xAdaptation 606 $aBirds 606 $aZoology$2HILCC 606 $aHealth & Biological Sciences$2HILCC 606 $aVertebrates$2HILCC 615 0$aBirds$xEcology. 615 0$aBirds$xEcophysiology. 615 0$aUrban animals$xEcology. 615 0$aUrban ecology (Biology)$xEnvironmental aspects. 615 0$aUrbanization$xBehavior. 615 0$aBirds$xAdaptation. 615 0$aBirds. 615 7$aZoology 615 7$aHealth & Biological Sciences 615 7$aVertebrates 676 $a598 700 $aGil$b Diego$01854431 701 $aBrumm$b Henrik$01854432 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910974127003321 996 $aAvian Urban Ecology$94451684 997 $aUNINA
