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

Declines in insectivorous birds are associated with high neonicotinoid concentrations

TL;DR: The hypothesis that the most widely used neonicotinoid insecticide, imidacloprid, has a negative impact on insectivorous bird populations is investigated and it is shown that, in the Netherlands, local population trends were significantly more negative in areas with higher surface-water concentrations of imidcloprid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Avian population consequences of climate change are most severe for long-distance migrants in seasonal habitats

TL;DR: It is shown that insectivorous long-distance migrant species in The Netherlands declined strongly in forests, a habitat characterized by a short spring food peak, but that they did not decline in less seasonal marshes, suggesting that habitat quality did not deteriorate.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effects of car traffic on breeding bird populations in woodland. Ill. Reduction of density in relation to the proximity of main roads

TL;DR: It is argued that noise load is probably the most important cause of the reduced densities of birds in deciduous and coniferous woodland, and the importance of noise and visibility of cars as possible factors affecting density is stressed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bridging the gap between ecology and spatial planning in landscape ecology

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an approach to bridge the gap between the many detailed process studies on species, and applied activities such as landscape evaluation and design, which require integrated knowledge.
