Population, Nest Distribution, and Nest Characteristics of Great Egret in Pulau Rambut Wildlife Sanctuary, Jakarta Bay

Jurnal Ilmu Pertanian Indonesia
Pulau Rambut, a 45-hectare island in Jakarta Bay, is a major nesting and roosting location for waterbirds, especially the great egret (Ardea alba). This species has faced population constraints due to habitat loss, oil spills, and waste.

Linking eBird data with high spatiotemporal remote sensing products to estimate occupancy of bird populations across the island of Ireland

Ibis, EarlyView.
The vast increase in biodiversity data generated through citizen science initiatives, alongside a growing suite of remote sensing products and advanced modelling tools, has opened new avenues for rapidly, accurately and efficiently monitoring species trends to inform conservation, management and policy.

The influence of a cooling water system on waterbird habitat use in a coastal environment

Ibis, EarlyView.
This study investigated the impact of a cooling water system at a nuclear power plant in northern Europe on coastal waterbird habitat use. In winter, the cooling water system provided preferential areas for waterbirds with warm productive waters, and, more importantly, with ice‐free areas.

Exploring the exploration: implications of leaving or remaining at the natal site during the early stages of independence in a partially migratory bird

Ibis, EarlyView.
Despite being an important fraction of any animal population, juveniles are a severely understudied group. Juveniles often need to learn an array of skills that allow them to survive independently and do so while undertaking decisions that may impact their fitness, recruitment and survival, having therefore relevant demographic implications.

Waterbird diversity and spatial distribution across China: Patterns and conservation strategies

Global Ecology and Conservation
Understanding regional patterns of waterbird distribution and community assembly is crucial for effective conservation in China. However, comprehensive nationwide analyses of waterbird spatial distribution remain limited.

Population of Waterbirds in Two Mangrove Types, Avicennia and Rhizophora in Iran [PDF]

, 2011
Relationship between mangroves and their associated marine life cannot be overemphasized. Mangrove habitats play host to a moderate number of waterbirds around the globe, but their relative roles of mangrove habitat structure in association with ...

Connectivity between breeding sites, wintering areas, and migration routes in Common Terns (Sterna hirundo) breeding in the Western Palaearctic

Ibis, EarlyView.
Detailed knowledge about bird migration patterns can enhance our understanding of the evolution of migration and temporal changes in space use throughout the annual cycle. Additionally, as many migratory bird species are experiencing population declines, understanding the connectivity between their spatial distributions during breeding, migration and ...

Low breeding propensity in a declining Arctic‐breeding swan revealed by telemetry data

Ibis, EarlyView.
Many migratory bird populations are declining in the face of habitat degradation and climate change, making it important to identify which stages of their annual cycle are most affected in order to guide conservation measures. The Bewick's Swan Cygnus columbianus bewickii, an Arctic‐breeding waterfowl species, has suffered a dramatic population decline
