An Overview of the Ecological Values of Soumar Wetland on Waterbirds Diversity

zoodiversity, 2023
The diversity and richness of the waterbird community is the main criterion used to classify wetlands as Ramsar and/or IBA sites. This study was carried out in the Soumar wetland (Setif province — northeastукт Algeria) from September 2019 to September 2020. Our aim was to study the ecological values of this wetland and the status of waterbirds.

Diverse usage of waterbird habitats and spatial management in Yancheng coastal wetlands

Ecological Indicators, 2020
Abstract In recent years, the suitable habitat for waterbirds in the Yancheng coastal wetlands has shown continuous degradation and decreasing dimensions. In this paper, the spatial distribution differences and main environmental variables of the suitable habitats for waterbird guilds were analyzed based on the field survey data and a random forest ...

Duck Orbivirus and Egg Production: A Newly Identified Duck Orbivirus Is the Etiological Agent of Egg Production Decline in Chinese Breeder Ducks

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Field samples from breeder duck farms with egg‐production decline were subjected to viral detection, genome sequencing, and virus isolation. Experimental infection demonstrated that duck orbivirus (DORV) causes a significant and persistent reduction in egg production in breeder ducks.
