Understorey bird responses to the abandonment of artisanal gold mining in Guyana
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 10, Page 2774-2786, October 2025.Whilst many forest‐dependent birds will avoid the exposed mine centre, diversity at the immediate edge has the potential to recover, particularly in smaller and older mines. As we have found that natural vegetation recovery occurs at the mine edges and not within the centre, targeted restoration efforts might focus on mine edges to enhance recovery ...
