Sedimentary Metagenomics Reveal Avian Community Transitions From the Last Glacial Maximum to the Holocene

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We used sedimentary ancient DNA shotgun metagenomics to reconstruct past bird communities in northern high‐latitude environments. By using long time series and data collected across a large environmental gradient, we contributed in a unique and explorative way to the understanding of palaeoecological dynamics between birds and their habitat on the ...

Does human disturbance affect physiological traits of Two-banded Plovers nesting on an urban beach?

Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2023
In coastal Patagonia, Argentina, shorebird breeding habitats overlap with high levels of human recreational activities, such as dog-walking and driving motorized vehicles.

Assessing the Ecological Network of Svalbard Through Scaled Interaction Strength Data: Insights From a Century of Research

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
In this work, we integrate existing knowledge on interaction strengths into a conceptual model of the Svalbard Ecological Network. We also highlight current knowledge gaps and challenges in establishing a robust baseline of species interactions in the region.

Helminth parasites in six species of shorebirds (Charadrii) from the Coast of Belize

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2001
Thirteen species of helminth parasites were recovered from six species of charadriid shorebirds (Aves: Charadriiformes) from Belize: the ruddy turnstone, Arenaria interpres, the snowy plover, Charadrius alexandrinus, the semipalmated plover, C ...

Radar And Visual Observations Of Autumnal (Southward) Shorebird Migration On Guam [PDF]

, 1988
Several species of shorebirds migrate between eastern Asia and the southern Pacific islands, Australia, and New Zealand. Observations made from Guam (13°25′N, 144°45′E) during autumn 1983 indicate that a significant number of birds take a direct route ...

Genetic Diversity Impacts Climate‐Induced Species Range Shifts

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 4, April 2026.
Genetic diversity may buffer species against climate‐driven range contractions and facilitate expansions, but its role at a global scale remains unclear. Using 4673 range shift estimates for 1888 species, we show that higher genetic diversity reduces trailing edge contractions under rapid warming and accelerates leading edge expansions under moderate ...

Density and spatial distribution of migratory shorebirds in different foraging habitats in the coastal region of Piauí State, Brazil

Ocean and Coastal Research
Coastal habitats are important feeding grounds for migratory shorebirds, which turns the coast of Piauí State into an important region for birds’ migration cycle.

Climate Change, Sea-Level Rise and Implications for Coastal and Estuarine Shoreline Management with Particular Reference to the Ecology of Intertidal Benthic Macrofauna in NW Europe

Biology, 2012
In many European estuaries, extensive areas of intertidal habitats consist of bare mudflats and sandflats that harbour a very high abundance and biomass of macrobenthic invertebrates. The high stocks of macrobenthos in turn provide important food sources

Storm events will simultaneously reduce foraging opportunities and affect movements of Red Knots (Calidris canutus) in the intertidal Wadden Sea

Ibis, Volume 168, Issue 2, Page 633-648, April 2026.
Intertidal systems provide important wintering areas for migratory shorebirds, where they can both forage and roost. In the light of climate change, extreme wind speeds are predicted to occur more frequently in northwestern Europe and pose a threat to shorebirds.

Dataset of Grey plover (Pluvialis squatarola) diet composition on the SW Black Sea coast using DNA metabarcoding [PDF]

Biodiversity Data Journal
Wader populations have been declining globally due to widespread anthropogenic habitat degradation and loss. In this context, food quality and availability at migration stop-over sites is crucial for wader migration success.We studied the diet ...
