Nestedness theory suggests wetland fragments with large areas and macrophyte diversity benefit waterbirds

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Many artificial wetland constructions are currently underway worldwide to compensate for the degradation of natural wetland systems. Researchers face the responsibility of proposing wetland management and species protection strategies to ensure that ...

Big Bird: A global dataset of birds in drone imagery annotated to species level

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Drones are a valuable tool for surveying birds, but manually detecting and identifying birds in drone images is costly. We assembled a diverse dataset of 23 865 images of birds captured with 21 different drones across 11 countries. We labelled 4824 of these images, detailing the location, species, posture category, age category, and sex of 49 990 birds

Environmental factors shaping the distribution of common wintering waterbirds in a lake ecosystem with developed shoreline [PDF]

, 2013
In this study, we tested whether the spatial distribution of waterbirds is influenced by shoreline urbanization or other habitat characteristics. We conducted monthly censuses along shoreline sections of a continental lake (Lake Balaton, Hungary) to ...

Accounting for animal movement during aerial imaging surveys

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Animals are not stationary during aerial surveys; if their movements are related to the movement of the aerial platform, then bias can be introduced into subsequent population count estimates. We sought to establish a framework for assessing the impacts of animal movement on count error and platform bias by comparing aggregated counts and relative ...

Waterbirds in a changing world : effects of climate, habitat and conservation policy on European waterbirds [PDF]

, 2017
Climate change has become a major threat for biodiversity in recent decades. Waterbirds, in particular, are very responsive to climate change compared to other avian species and have already shown changes in phenology and distribution.

Hunting and fishing harvest data collection: a horizon scanning exercise from the French context

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Legal and societal moves increasingly lead leisure hunting and fishing practitioners to record their harvest. The total number of individuals harvested per population per year is the minimum required information to feed into demographic models and allow science‐based management. Some few schemes record more detailed data, hence allowing better‐informed

Buses, cars, bicycles and walkers the influence of the type of human transport on the flight responses of waterbirds [PDF]

, 2013
One way to manage disturbance to waterbirds in natural areas where humans require access is to promote the occurrence of stimuli for which birds tolerate closer approaches, and so cause fewer responses.
