Diversity of Waterbirds in Chobe River, Botswana

Journal of Sustainable Development
The Chobe Riverfront has a higher diversity of large mammalian species. This study investigated the seasonal variation in the waterbirds diversity along the Chobe River, Botswana, from 2019 to 2025. Eight ground count surveys conducted from a vehicle were done during the wet and dry seasons across these years.

Wetland restoration in the East Dongting Lake effectively increased waterbird diversity by improving habitat quality

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2021
Wetland restoration is an effective way to recover degraded wetlands worldwide. The Dongting Lake wetland, an important wintering habitat for waterbirds, has suffered considerable degradation due to climate change and human disturbance during the last ...

Diversity of waterbird species in the Sicanang Belawan mangrove ecotourism area

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science
Abstract Waterbirds are a group of birds highly dependent on wetlands, aquaculture ponds, mudflats, mangroves, and coastal areas. The Sicanang Mangrove Ecotourism Area serves as one of the habitats for these waterbirds. However, currently the condition of the mangroves in the Sicanang Mangrove Ecotourism Area has declined, affecting the ...

Diversity and Distribution of Waterbirds across Wetlands of Eastern Uganda

Advances in Research, 2020
Explaining patterns of diversity, and abundance across sites is a central aim of community ecology. Avian communities have been the focus of many studies on species diversity. To be able to explain patterns of waterbirds in wetlands of eastern Uganda, we conducted a rapid assessment in 48 wetlands (38 swamps, two rice paddies and eight lakes) using ...

Patterns and drivers of waterbird alpha and beta diversity are different between arid and humid regions of China

Avian Research
Waterbirds are vital for wetland ecosystems, but climate change and human activities are harming these habitats globally, reducing biodiversity and threatening waterbird survival. In China, wetlands in humid and arid regions face quite different threats,

Seasonal Diversity and Population Status of Waterbirds in Phewa Lake, Pokhara, Nepal

Journal of Wetlands Ecology, 1970
The study (2007-08) was carried out in Phewa Lake which is one of the largest lake systems in Nepal to evaluate seasonal diversity and population status of waterbirds. A total of 39 waterbird species belonging to 17 families of 5 orders was recorded. The highest number of species (31 species) was found in December and January.

Lower reclamation of coastal lagoon conserves higher waterbird assemblage phylogenetic diversity

Global Ecology and Conservation
Natural habitat loss caused by wetland reclamation is one of the most important causation for waterbird decline worldwide. Measurements of biodiversity loss always relied on the species and abundance reduce initially.

Functional diversity dynamics of waterbird communities driven by water levels at Shengjin Lake, a small river‐connected shallow lake in the middle and lower Yangtze River floodplain [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
Gate‐controlled activities in lakes can directly or indirectly influence the assembly of waterbird communities. Shengjin Lake, a Ramsar site, is a typical river‐connected and gate‐controlled shallow lake in the lower and middle Yangtze River floodplain ...
