Managed realignment for habitat compensation: Use of a new intertidal habitat by fishes [PDF]
, 2015 Managed realignment has become an increasingly common mechanism to increase the efficiency and sustainability of flood defences, reduce defence costs or compensate for habitat losses. This study investigated the use by fishes of a new intertidal habitat,

Multiple habitat use by declining migratory birds necessitates joined‐up conservation
Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Many species depend on multiple habitats at different points in space and time. Their effective conservation requires an understanding of how and when each habitat is used, coupled with adequate protection.

Bees use anthropogenic habitats despite strong natural habitat preferences [PDF]
Diversity and Distributions, 2018 Abstract Aim Habitat loss and alteration are widely considered one of the main drivers of current pollinator diversity loss. Yet little is known about habitat importance and preferences for major groups of pollinators, although this information is crucial to anticipate and mitigate the current ...

Ecology and co-existence of two endemic day gecko (Phelsuma) species in Seychelles native palm forest [PDF]
, 2011 In island ecosystems, reptiles play diverse ecological roles as a result of niche broadening, which increases potential niche overlap between species. Ecological niche partitioning is a means of reducing direct competition between coexisting species and ...
