Bird data : Italy, Florence
(Ginster Verlag, 2005)
Bird data : South Africa, Pretoria
(Elsevier, 2009)
Similar to the process seen in invasion biology, urbanized environments lead to biotic homogenization with a few species, often alien, dominating the urban habitat. We investigated avian communities across an urban gradient ...
Bird data : Austria, Vienna
(Ginster Verlag, 2005)
Bird data : China, Hong Kong
(The University of Hong Kong (Pokfulam, Hong Kong), 2000)
Bird data : Germany, Hamburg
(Museum and Institute of Zoology, Polish Academy of Sciences, 2005)
Avifaunas of three large cities (Hamburg, Berlin and Warsaw) situated in the northern lowlands of Central Europe along an 850-km-long west-east line were compared. Estimates of several species’ breeding populations in these ...
Bird data : Sweden, Örebro
(Elsevier, 2006)
A functional network of green space is important for the maintenance of the ecological dimension of a sustainable urban landscape. We used avian ecological diversity as a proxy for evaluating the functionality of different ...
Bird data : Australia, Melbourne
(Birdlife Australia, 2009)
Bird data : France, Montpellier
(Elsevier, 2008)
We studied the richness and composition of diurnal birds in relation to the percentage of built surfaces in an urban area of Mediterranean France and analyzed their seasonal variation. We recorded 61 species and identified ...
Bird data : Russia, Moscow
(Ginster Verlag, 2005)
Bird data : UK, Sheffield
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)
Urban environments are often characterized as supporting a few abundant, generalist species best adapted to living alongside humans, and as such, cities are seen as agents of biotic homogenization. However, there are ...
Bird data - New Zealand, Dunedin
(Landscape and Urban Planning, 2008)
Few urban studies of avian diversity discriminate between native and exotic species, although highly modified urban environments typically support significant numbers of non-native species. High overall diversity may mask ...
Bird data : Canada, Vancouver
(Resilience Alliance Inc., 2003)
For birds in urban environments, the configuration of local habitat within the landscape may be as critical as the composition of the local habitat itself. We examined the relative importance of environmental attributes ...
Bird data : New Zealand, Hamilton
(Landcare Research, 2006)
This report describes the second set of biennial bird counts, initiated in 2004, in green (parkland and vegetated gullies) and residential areas of Hamilton City, undertaken in August (winter) and November (spring) 2012. ...
Bird data : Germany, Mainz
(Naturhistorisches Museum Mainz, 2002)
Bird data : Germany, Leipzig
(Resilience Alliance Inc., 2009)
We examined bird diversity in relation to land use and socioeconomic indicators in Leipzig, Germany. We used neighborhood diversity (ND) and bivariate correlation to show that the potential to experience biodiversity in a ...
Bird data : Netherlands, Breda
(NPN Media B. V., 2009)
Bird data : Slovakia, Bratislava
(Ginster Verlag, 2005)
Bird data : French Guiana, Cayenne
(IRD Senegal, 2000)
This article examines the utility of particular bird species and guilds as bioindicators in a complex habitat mosaic, namely that of the tropical city of Cayenne (French Guyana). For this purpose, an urbanization gradient ...
