Journal ArticleDOI

Global Biodiversity: Indicators of Recent Declines

Stuart H. M. Butchart, +46 more
- 28 May 2010 - 
TL;DR: Most indicators of the state of biodiversity showed declines, with no significant recent reductions in rate, whereas indicators of pressures on biodiversity showed increases, indicating that the Convention on Biological Diversity’s 2010 targets have not been met.
Journal ArticleDOI

Essential biodiversity variables

TL;DR: With the first plenary meeting of the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) soon under way, partners are developing—and seeking consensus around—Essential Biod diversity Variables (EBVs) that could form the basis of monitoring programs worldwide.
Journal ArticleDOI

A mid-term analysis of progress toward international biodiversity targets

Derek P. Tittensor, +56 more
- 10 Oct 2014 - 
TL;DR: A comprehensive mid-term assessment of progress toward 20 biodiversity-related “Aichi Targets” to be achieved within a decade is provided using 55 indicator data sets and pinpoints the problems and areas that will need the most attention in the next few years.
Journal ArticleDOI

Developing indicators for European birds

TL;DR: It is argued that the farmland bird indicator is a useful surrogate for trends in other elements of biodiversity in this habitat, and developed statistical methods to calculate supranational, multi-species indices using population data from national annual breeding bird surveys in Europe.
Journal ArticleDOI

Patterns of natal and breeding dispersal in birds

TL;DR: A significant positive relation was observed between breeding dispersal distance and long-term population decline among migrants, but not among residents, suggesting that this habitat variable does not impose the same constraint on natal dispersal.
