Improving conservation strategies of raptors through landscape ecology analysis: The case of the endemic Cuban Black Hawk. [PDF]
A landscape ecology perspective was used to determine the nesting habitat selection and breeding success at different scales of endemic and endangered Cuban Black Hawk. All nests were located in mangrove swamp in sites with low soil–vegetation moisture and low soil reflectance, and at the landscape level they selected low shape complexity of patches ...

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

We found that outdoor recreation alters the vertebrate scavenger assemblage and carrion removal. Larger scavenger species are most affected, especially raptors. Furthermore, human activities promote the presence of non‐native species in the ecosystem. Therefore, areas of restricted access are essential to preserve biodiversity and ecological processes ...

An emerging coastal wetland management dilemma between mangrove expansion and shorebird conservation
Abstract Coastal wetlands around the world have been degraded by human activities. Global declines in the extent of important coastal wetlands, including mangroves, salt marshes, and tidal flats, necessitate mitigation and restoration efforts. However, some well‐meaning management actions, particularly mangrove afforestation, can inadvertently cause ...

Impact of human disturbance on the abundance of non‐breeding shorebirds in a subtropical wetland
We studied the influence of human disturbance in shorebirds, a subtropical coastal wetland in Mexico. During the winter, all shorebird species were negatively related to human disturbance but positively associated with the presence of raptors. Understanding the factors influencing the abundance and habitat use of shorebirds on their non‐breeding ...
