Renewable energy is vital for reducing carbon emissions and yet its infrastructure poses challenges to biodiversity. While the impacts of wind power on bats and raptors are well‐studied, the effects on elusive species remain largely unknown. The Eurasian woodcock Scolopax rusticola, a nocturnal forest bird, performs characteristic courtship flights at ...

Impact of climate on the migration phenology of the endangered Little Bustard in Spain
The phenology of animals is closely tied to seasonal climatic patterns so, by altering temperature and precipitation regimes, climate change disrupts the phenological cycles of species. More specifically, the influence of rising temperatures on the phenology of bird migration has been long studied.

Ecological filters shape community assemblages. When filters lead to non‐Gaussian distributions—for example, asymmetric, uneven, multimodal—the community weighted mean is insufficient to characterise the community. Urban environments exert deterministic directional and stabilising assembly filters on functional communities in butterflies, with a higher
