Woodland proximity limits benefits of conservation land management for farmland breeding waders
Where grassland breeding wader assemblages may be put at risk by tree planting, buffer zones >500 m should be implemented to mitigate the negative effect on wader species, with further distances having the greatest benefits. Equally, the benefits of conservation measures for breeding waders will be reduced within similar proximities to existing ...

Forest conversion for agriculture is a major cause of biodiversity loss in the tropics, but its impacts depend on how broadly they are measured. Using data from across Colombia, one of the most biodiverse countries in the world, we examined how deforestation for cattle farming affects the evolutionary history of bird species.

Evolution of ultraviolet vision in shorebirds (Charadriiformes) [PDF]
Diurnal birds belong to one of two classes of colour vision. These are distinguished by the maximum absorbance wavelengths of the SWS1 visual pigment sensitive to violet (VS) and ultraviolet (UVS). Shifts between the classes have been rare events during avian evolution.

The population and biodiversity of waterbird in the reserve have increased. NEL and nutrient concentrations significantly increased TLI of lake and reduced waterbird biodiversity. Piscivorous waterbirds can significantly increase the phosphorus load and herbivorous waterbirds can increase nitrogen load.
