Scale dependence of biotic homogenisation by urbanisation: A comparison of urban bird communities between central argentina and northern Finland
(De Gruyter, 2017-12)
Recent studies showed contrasting results about the homogenising force of urbanisation on bird community composition at large and regional scales. We studied whether urbanisation promotes the homogenisation of wintering ...
Birds of a high-altitude cloud forest in Alta Verapaz, Guatemala
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2005)
Relationship between species richness of excavator birds and cavity–adopters in seven tropical forests in costa rica
(2009)
The abundance of wood cavities is thought to be a limiting factor for bird species that depend on these cavities for nesting. Thus, it is expected that number of cavity adopters correlates with number of cavity excavators ...
Bird species richness, diversity and abundance in Polylepis woodlands, Huascaran biosphere reserve, Peru
(Taylor and Francis, 2011)
We examined patterns in bird community composition across a fragmented high-Andean Polylepis landscape currently afforded protection within the Huascaran Biosphere Reserve, Peru. Across five different locations we found ...
Bird-habitat relationships in a vegetational gradient in the andes of central Chile
(University of California Press, 1997)
An unusual pattern has been described in Patagonian forests, where bird species diversity seems to be inversely correlated with vegetation complexity. To test the occurrence of this pattern in the northern Nothofagus forests ...
Abundance and diversity of small-bird assemblages in the Monte desert, Argentina
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2005-12)
Assemblages of small bird species (o90 gbody mass) from the Monte desert in Argentinawere studied to analyze spatial and temporal variation in abundance and species richness.Mean species richness was higher during breeding ...
Can oil palm plantations become bird friendly?
(SPRINGER, 2010-10)
Despite the increasing claims that structural complexity in agroforestry plantations is a key variable for enhancing bird biodiversity, few studies have experimentally manipulated the understory component of structural ...
Bird diversity patterns in Neotropical temperate farmlands: The role of environmental factors and trophic groups in the spring and autumn
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2012-08)
Productivity, habitat heterogeneity and environmental similarity are of the most widely accepted hypotheses to explain spatial patterns of species richness and species composition similarity. Environmental factors may ...
Do small cities affect bird assemblages? An evaluation from Patagonia
(Springer, 2020-04)
Most studies about the impact of urbanization on bird assemblages are from the Northern Hemisphere and most previous research has reported that cities reduced bird species richness and favored the settlement of exotic bird ...
