Biography

Bridget Stutchbury is a Professor Emeritus in the Department of Biology at York University. Her long-term research focuses on population ecology and the conservation of birds. Recently, she has been utilizing light-level geolocators to track the long-distance migration movements of songbirds, which aids in understanding migration ecology and the seasonal carry-over effects that influence breeding populations depending on specific wintering regions. Stutchbury has employed radiotelemetry to determine the survival rates of young birds after they leave the nest, as well as to test how forest fragmentation and logging affect fledgling survival rates. For several years, she has implemented long-term coded radiotags within a large automated telemetry array (MOTUS) in Ontario to examine the impacts of forest fragmentation and agricultural intensification on juvenile dispersal and survival.
