Benefits of protected areas for nonbreeding waterbirds adjusting their distributions under climate warming. [PDF]

Conserv Biol, 2021
Abstract Climate warming is driving changes in species distributions and community composition. Many species have a so‐called climatic debt, that is, shifts in range lag behind shifts in temperature isoclines. Inside protected areas (PAs), community changes in response to climate warming can be facilitated by greater colonization rates by warm‐dwelling

Exposure of wetlands important for nonbreeding waterbirds to sea-level rise in the Mediterranean. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Sea‐level rise (SLR) is expected to cause major changes to coastal wetlands, which are among the world's most vulnerable ecosystems and are critical for nonbreeding waterbirds. Because strategies for adaptation to SLR, such as nature‐based solutions and designation of protected areas, can locally reduce the negative effects of coastal flooding

Habitat Changes at the Local Scale Have Major Impacts on Waterfowl Populations Across a Migratory Flyway. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol
Migratory waterbirds are declining worldwide due to habitat loss, but not much is known about how the loss of specific wetlands can affect waterbird populations at the biogeographical scale. To investigate that, we used the Guadalquivir Marshes (SW Spain) as a case study and combined 38 years of waterfowl winter counts with environmental and remote ...

Drone‐induced flight initiation distances for shorebirds in mixed‐species flocks

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 60, Issue 9, Page 1816-1827, September 2023., 2023
We conclude that (i) drone use needs to be carefully regulated to ensure roosting shorebird flocks are not approached within distances that will disturb the most sensitive species likely to be present, (ii) researchers contemplating drone surveys need to carefully evaluate the risk of disturbance, especially where there are mixed‐species flocks, and ...

Hydrology affects shorebirds, waterfowl, and other waterbirds at Bear River Bay, a Globally Important Bird Area

Journal of Field Ornithology, Volume 92, Issue 4, Page 388-401, December 2021., 2021
Abstract The value of saline lakes and associated wetlands as habitats in the xeric Great Basin is dependent on having water of sufficient quantity and quality to support wetland‐dependent birds. To inform conservation and management of these habitats, models are needed to link birds and hydrological changes due to climate and human water use.

Trends and knowledge gaps in field research investigating effects of anthropogenic noise

Conservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 1, Page 115-129, February 2021., 2021
Abstract Anthropogenic noise is a globally widespread sensory pollutant, recognized as having potentially adverse effects on function, demography, and physiology in wild animals. Human population growth and associated changes in urbanization, transportation, and resource extraction all contribute to anthropogenic noise and are predicted to increase in ...

Variación temporal de la abundancia y diversidad de aves del humedal del río Mataquito, Región del Maule, Chile

El Hornero, 2012
Los humedales costeros son ecosistemas que tienen una alta diversidad biológica. No obstante, en Chile existe una carencia de estudios sobre la estructura y dinámica de las comunidades de aves que los habitan.

Feathers and flu: identifying data gaps in avian influenza host dynamics to prioritize wildlife conservation Plumas y gripe: identificación de datos faltantes en la dinámica de hospedadores de la influenza aviar para priorizar la conservación de la vida silvestre

Wildlife Monographs, Volume 225, Issue 1, September 2026.
We describe the host response continuum for highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIV), including the continuum of host responses to HPAIV infection and exposure based on the primary axis of host competence, ability to infect other hosts, and host vulnerability.
