Migration Ecology and Protection of Stopover Sites of the Whimbrels Along China's Coastal. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Our analysis reveals two critical findings: (1) 73.1% of identified stopover sites occur within existing protected areas, demonstrating significant conservation coverage; yet (2) substantial protection gaps persist, particularly in inland regions of Inner Mongolia and Northeast China where 42.9% of key sites lack formal protection.

Good neighbors? Does aggregation of nests in an Arctic‐breeding shorebird influence daily survival rates?

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 6, June 2023., 2023
Semipalmated sandpipers are monogamous and territorial and are expected to avoid nesting in close proximity to conspecifics. We study an aggregated population nesting in the Canadian Arctic and test for the impacts of nest density and nearest neighbor distance on nest success. Abstract Our current understanding of the factors that influence where birds

Grassland bird population declines at three Breeding Bird Survey spatial scales in contrast to a large native prairie

Ecosphere, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Grassland biomes in North America are threatened by agricultural intensification with implications for grassland‐associated bird populations via habitat loss, alteration, pesticide use, and declining landscape heterogeneity. Despite decades of conservation concern, steep declines of grassland birds continue.

Impact of human disturbance on the abundance of non‐breeding shorebirds in a subtropical wetland

Biotropica, Volume 54, Issue 5, Page 1160-1169, September 2022., 2022
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 ...
