Morgan Brown
Breeding Bird Cumulative Effects Post-Doctoral Fellow
Morgan Brown serves as Breeding Bird Cumulative Effects Post-Doctoral Fellow at WCS. Morgan’s interest in avian research began during her BSc at the University of Western Ontario with an honours project studying stopover performance between aggressive and non-aggressive morphs of migrating white-throated sparrows. After working several fieldwork contracts for a mix of NGOs, government, environmental consulting firms and academic groups, she completed her MSc at Acadia University. There she studied regional-scale movement ecology of post-breeding and migratory blackpoll warblers, focusing on whether movement patterns of first-year fledglings birds differ from experienced adult individuals. This work presented some of the first regional-scale movement paths of passerines during the post-breeding and migratory periods, tracked using an automated radio-telemetry array.
