Habitat suitability modeling of red-winged pratincole (Glareola pratincola) in Shadegan International Wetlands
The Survey of the ecological characteristics of the species and determining their habitat suitability is one of the main principles of management and conservation of wildlife species. Hence, we need methods that can help assess habitats and can estimate, over time, reduce of their quality. To understand the effects of human activities and the changes of a habitat, it is necessary to make quanti...

متن کاملUnderstorey bird responses to the edge-interior gradient in an isolated tropical rainforest of Malaysia
Forest fragmentation results in a loss of forest interior and an increase in edge habitat. We studied how understorey bird community composition and habitat variables changed along an edge-to-interior gradient in a 1248-ha lowland rainforest patch in peninsular Malaysia. Birds and environmental variables such as vegetation structure and litter depth were detected within a 25-m radius of each of...
متن کاملHabitat suitability modeling of water birds and waders in Hamun wetland by by Maximum Entropy model
Climate change and human activities have increased negative pressure on natural ecosystems. Wetlands are such ecosystems that widely affected by these negative changes. Birds as a part of wildlife in a wetland have damaged by destruction of wetlands, so, a large group of them, are at risk of extinction. Habitat destruction in wetlands in arid and semi-arid areas has more negative effects on the...
متن کاملThreshold effects of habitat fragmentation on fish diversity at landscapes scales.
Habitat fragmentation involves habitat loss concomitant with changes in spatial configuration, confounding mechanistic drivers of biodiversity change associated with habitat disturbance. Studies attempting to isolate the effects of altered habitat configuration on associated communities have reported variable results. This variability may be explained in part by the fragmentation threshold hypo...
