James C. Mouton studies bird behavior and ecology, focusing on how environmental conditions such as predation risk, food availability, and climate shape parental care, hormone-mediated development, and population dynamics. Much of the recent work centers on island songbirds, examining how isolation from predators and other pressures influences nesting behavior, anti-predator responses, and long-term population stability. This research combines field observation, experimental manipulation, and physiological measurements (e.g., hormones, isotopes) to understand adaptation at both individual and population levels.
Publication output has fluctuated over the last decade, peaking around 2020 and again in 2025-2026, with a slower period between 2023 and 2024.
