Abstract
The article presents a study which investigated climate effects on adult mortality in Australian superb fairy-wrens (Malurus cyaneus). Topics discussed include nonclimatic causes of variation in mortality, climate effects on the seasonal mortality hazard rate, and climate effects on the weekly mortality hazard rate. Temporal trends in climate indices and mortality rate are also mentioned.
