contents Incubation strategy and hatching start time affect the duration of the nestling period in precocial Arctic-breeding sandpipers.

The duration of the nestling period (DNP) depends on the hatching synchrony of eggs and the speed at which chicks acquire these abilities but may be indirectly affected by parental behaviour and temporal variations in temperature and predation. We assessed the effects of incubation strategy (bi- or uniparental), hatching start time, incubation initiation date and predation risk on the DNP in Arctic-breeding sandpipers. We found that the DNP was longer in biparental species (29.75 ± 8.95 h) compared with uniparental ones (25.82 ± 6.87 h) and was extended in nests where chicks began hatching during the colder 'night' hours. No effect of incubation initiation date or predation pressure was found on the DNP. We suggest that parental investment strategies and constraints related to circadian variations in temperature in chicks drive the DNP in Arctic-breeding sandpipers. These results help us better understand how different species may exhibit different behavioural responses during nesting to impending climate change.
