Long-term variation in survival rates of Sand Martins Riparia riparia: dependence on breeding and wintering ground weather, age and sex, and their population consequences: Capsule Survival rates of Sand Martins are driven by variation in rainfall on the wintering grounds prior to their arrival and in the breeding area in the previous summer; inter-annual changes in abundance also show strong correlations with survival.
