4、ers,is rising temperatures due to climate change. Using migration information collected in eBird,a citizen science program database containing 10 years worth of observations from amateur birdwatchers,assistant professor of biology Allen Hurlbert,Ph.D.,and his team analysed when 18 different species
5、of birds arrived at various points across their migration journeys. Pushing migration earlier in the year could negatively affect birds over the long term,Hurlbert said.“Timing of bird migration is something critical for the overall health of bird species,” he said.“They have to time it right so the

7、tures.Slow migrators were the most adaptable to changes.Additionally,the length of the migration path affects how quickly birds move from one location to another. “It makes sense that if you take your time to move north,youre sort of checking out the surroundings around you,” he said.“If the conditi

10、next 50 years to 75 years hold true,Hurlbert said.Climatologists predict the Northeast will continue to warm at a faster pace than the Southeast,potentially forcing slow migrators to move even slower and put greater difficulty on their migratory routes. 【语篇解读】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了科研人员对北美洲东部的鸟类的迁徙进行了研究, 研究
