The Piping Plover Problem: A Review of Management Issues for a Threatened Shorebird [PDF]

, 2019
Andrew Lydeard and Gerry Harris The Piping Plover (Charadrius melodus) was federally listed in 1986. Since listing, Piping Plovers have been a focus of conservation and management efforts, particularly on their breeding grounds in the Northern Great ...

Viability of piping plover Charadrius melodus metapopulations

Biological Conservation, 2000
The metapopulation viability analysis package, vortex, was used to examine viability and recovery objectives for piping plovers Charadrius melodus, an endangered shorebird that breeds in three distinct regions of North America. Baseline models indicate that while Atlantic Coast populations, under current management practices, are at little risk of near-

Interacting Sea‐Level Rise, Sea‐Ice Loss, Storm Flooding, Erosion, and Permafrost Thaw Threaten Ecosystems, Wildlife, and Communities on the Yukon‐Kuskokwim Delta

Earth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract The Yukon‐Kuskokwim Delta has the largest intertidal wetland in North America, is a globally critical breeding area for waterbirds, and is home to the largest regional indigenous population in the Arctic. Here, coastal tundra ecosystems, wildlife, and indigenous communities are highly vulnerable to sea‐ice loss in the Bering Sea, sea‐level ...

Population Assessment of an Endangered Shorebird: the Piping Plover (Charadrius melodus melodus) in Eastern Canada

Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2006
Small, at-risk populations are those for which accurate demographic information is most crucial to conservation and recovery, but also where data collection is constrained by logistical challenges and small sample sizes.

Effects of severe weather on shorebirds: Evidence of disrupted refueling and delayed departure on southbound migration

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Severe weather events are more frequently impacting wildlife, especially in climate‐sensitive ecosystems like coastal habitats. A particularly vulnerable stage for migratory species is juvenile movement between natal and non‐breeding habitats. Globally, coastal habitats represent critical stopover or staging sites during postbreeding migration

Extrinsic factors similarly affect nest survival of a threatened shorebird in natural and human-created habitats

Avian Conservation and Ecology
Knowledge of factors that influence nest survival can inform effective conservation management for imperiled avian species. Habitat availability and quality are common priorities of conservation efforts, and climate and interspecific associations can ...

A Decadal Change in Shorebird Populations in Response to Temperature, Wind, and Precipitation at Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, USA

Birds
Despite increasing conservation efforts for shorebirds, there are widespread declines in many shorebird species in North America. Climate change is causing significant shorebird range shifts and population declines.
