Preserving the Mediterranean bird flyways: Assessment and prioritization of 38 main wetlands under human and climate threats in Sardinia and Sicily (Italy)

Alessandro Ferrarini et al.

Summary: Wetlands serve as crucial habitats for waterbirds and play a key role in ecological services, but are facing threats from human activities and climate change. Research in Sardinia and Sicily shows that different interventions are needed for wetlands in these regions, ranging from reducing tourism pressure to preventing water shortages in summer. Prioritization of interventions based on avifaunal diversity and threats can benefit conservation efforts along the Mediterranean bird flyways.

Twenty-Three Years of Land-Use Changes Induced Considerable Threats to the Main Wetlands of Sardinia and Sicily (Italy) along the Mediterranean Bird Flyways

Alessandro Ferrarini et al.

Summary: The study shows that Natura 2000 policies have been effective in preserving wetlands, but the surrounding areas have experienced degradation and artificialization, posing threats to waterbirds and wetland integrity. Expanding existing Natura 2000 sites, creating new ones, and accelerating the implementation of the rules of the Habitats and Birds Directives seem necessary to combat rapid land-use changes around these important stopover sites.
