AssTRAcT。 -在明尼苏达州伍兹湖对笛鸻 (Charadrius melodus) 进行了三个繁殖季节（1982-1984）的研究，以确定先前繁殖成功对巢址坚韧和配偶保留的影响。该种群由大约 47 只成虫组成，在研究区域内的四个繁殖地点筑巢。巢址韧性强； 84% 的繁殖鸟类在距上一年巢穴 200 m 的范围内筑巢。之前的繁殖成功与巢址坚韧之间没有发现显着关系。观察到中等程度的配偶保留；在所有成员在随后的季节返回研究区域的所有配对中，45% 的人重新团聚。之前的繁殖成功与保留配偶之间没有发现显着的关系。这项研究证明了保护受威胁和濒危人口使用的传统繁殖地的重要性
AssTRAcT. -Piping Plovers (Charadrius melodus) were studied for three breeding seasons (1982-1984) at Lake of the Woods, Minnesota, to determine the effects of previous breeding success on nest-site tenacity and mate retention. The population consisted of approximately 47 adults that nested at four breeding localities within the study area. Nest-site tenacity was strong; 84% of all breeding birds nested within 200 m of their nest site of the previous year. No significant relationship was found between previous breeding success and nest-site tenacity. Moderate mate retention was observed; of all pairs for which both members returned to the study area the subsequent season, 45% reunited. No significant relationship was found between previous breeding success and mate retention. This study demonstrates the importance of protecting traditional breeding sites used by threatened and endangered popu
