Effects of forest fragmentation on avian breeding activity
Abstract Biodiversity declines and ecosystem decay follow forest fragmentation; initially, abundant species may become rare or be extirpated. Underlying mechanisms behind delayed extirpation of certain species following forest fragmentation are unknown.

Oaks are often removed as part of longleaf pine restoration; however, it is unclear if oak patches produce important resources for native wildlife. We studied wildlife use of the transition between longleaf pine woodlands and hardwood hammocks. We found these areas support a variety of wildlife species and future management and restoration of longleaf ...

The rainforests of Southeast Asia have a high diversity of animals, many of which eat fruit and disperse the seeds of forest plants. Several large‐bodied species occur in these forests; these animals are predicted to have especially important seed dispersal roles but are also among the species most threatened by defaunation.

Lessons from seabird conservation in Alaskan longline fisheries
Abstract Although bycatch of seabirds and other long‐lived species is a critical conservation issue in world fisheries, case studies documenting significant reductions in the mortality of these low‐productivity species in a fishery are rare. We studied progress toward seabird conservation in the Alaskan longline fisheries, one of the largest and most ...

园林鸟类是城市环境质量的重要指标,也是城市自然保护和生态建设的重要组成部分.1997年10月至1998年12月,通过选取杭州市区20个主要园林,根据季节每月一至两次调查园林鸟类的物种和数量,对杭州市园林鸟类的群落结构及其季节变化进行了分析探讨,结果显示:全部园林中共记录到鸟类82种,其中迁徙鸟类50种,占61%,留鸟32种,占39% ;园林鸟类群落呈现出较强的季节性,从全部园林总体上看,物种数和总数量呈现春秋两个高峰,夏季最低;从单个园林来看,多数园林鸟类群落物种数的最高峰集中在冬季 ...

This research reveals the functional stability of mixed species foraging flocks (MSF) and their foraging height change with different taxonomic differences along the elevational gradient at Knuckles Montane Reserve, Sri Lanka. This offers new insights into how MSFs sustain with the elevational gradients supporting the altitudinal shifting species ...

The Definition of Mangrove Forest and Protection of Mangrove Wetland [PDF]
红树林保护刻不容缓,但目前的保护现状并不乐观,尤其是在忽视其湿地本质和生态系统的情况下,单纯的有林地保护现象甚为突出。针对以上问题,从红树林名称入手指出红树林的林学渊源,理清概念,分析保护现状,并从生态系统的角度阐述了红树林湿地结构和功能的整体性,探讨和呼吁科学的管理和保护。Mangrove protection does not permit any delay, however, the current situation is not optimistic.Especially ...
