    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 : Singapore 

    Wang, Luan Kang; Hails, Chris J. (National University of Singapore. Dept. of Zoology, 2007)
    This annotated checklist is the third major compilation for Singapore. It lists the current status of all bird species ever recorded in the wild in Singapore. A total of 404 species have been recorded, including 44 species ...

  • Bird data : South Africa, Pretoria 

    van Rensburg, Berndt J.; Peacock, Derick S.; Robrtson, Mark P. (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 : Brazil, Porto Alegre 

    Fontana, Carla Suertegaray; Burger, Maria Inês; Magnusson, William E. (Springer, 2011)
    Cities are highly modified environments in which the only areas that resemble natural landscapes are urban parks with low human population density. Attempts are frequently made to maintain high bird diversity in cities for ...
  • Bird data : Sweden, Örebro 

    Sandström, Ulf; Angelstam, Per; Mikusinski, Grzegorz (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
