Summary: This study investigates the avian metacommunity of the Sardinian wetlands and finds that salinity, tourism pressure, wetland isolation, and water discharges negatively affect avian diversity. Additionally, water level regulation and saltwater intrusions further threaten the bird species in these wetlands. Pro-active conservation measures are needed to counteract these threats.

Summary: This study assessed the avifaunal diversity in the Sarasalai mangrove reserve and recorded 107 bird species. Greater Flamingos showed the highest abundance, while threatened species like the Indian Spot-billed Duck were also recorded in high numbers. The Sarasalai mangrove reserve has not been properly studied and protected.

Summary: This study introduces a methodology of applying Bayesian network modeling to population viability analysis, which can better address the spatial and temporal variability of vital rate parameters, especially for species with complex stage-class structures. By comparing traditional matrix-based PVA with BN model analyses on three species from eastern Australia, it was found that BN PVA provides more clearly identifiable thresholds of population changes and extinction levels.

Summary: Estimates of migratory waterbirds population are important for guiding the conservation of coastal wetlands. This study developed a two-step automatic waterbird monitoring framework and tested its effectiveness in China. The results showed high accuracy and stability, demonstrating the framework's ability to extract ecologically meaningful data and information from video surveillance footages.

Summary: As natural wetlands degrade, artificial wetlands can provide refuge for waterbirds, but they cannot fully replace natural wetlands. In this study, the researchers examined the impact of water level changes on a reservoir in China and found that the rise in water level resulted in the loss of agricultural lands and wetlands, as well as a decrease in shallow water areas and waterbird diversity. The findings suggest that policymakers should consider the needs of waterbirds when constructing or managing reservoirs.

Summary: The relationship between hydrological variation and waterbird habitat use in wetland complexes is an important research field. This study combined synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery and GPS tracking data to quantify the impact of flood duration on goose habitats and investigated the spatial distribution pattern of habitats in Poyang Lake, China from 2018 to 2020. The study also considered the role of sub-lakes in habitat protection.

Summary: Urbanisation has had a severe impact on bird diversity, with the intensity of urbanisation negatively correlated with waterbird diversity. Protecting river wetlands as an important part of urban ecosystems and conducting regular field surveys can help inform urban planning measures, such as reducing impervious surface areas and increasing vegetation coverage.

Summary: This study quantifies the direct and indirect effects of climate on fire regime change in temperate forests in southeastern Australia. The results indicate that future climate change will intensify fire regimes by increasing wildfire extent and intensity and decreasing fire interval. The role of future fuel also interacts with climate change, either synergistically or antagonistically, depending on the landscape and fire regime attribute. These findings suggest that temperate ecosystems in southeastern Australia are likely to experience shifts in fire regimes in the coming decades.

Summary: Land use changes have had a positive impact on the wintering population of bar-headed geese, with abandoned croplands reducing human disturbance and larger water and grassland areas providing more foraging and resting opportunities for the geese.

Summary: The study found that restoration measures have a positive impact on the waterbird communities in Xianghai Reserve, with an increase in both the number and diversity of species. However, fluctuations in water level can lead to fluctuations in waterbird diversity. To better protect and manage important waterbird stopover sites, it is recommended to regulate water levels and optimize hydrological patterns.

Summary: This study analyzed the changes in mangrove habitats, impervious surfaces, and other land cover types in Deep Bay in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area (GBA), China. The results showed an overall increase in mangrove habitats from 1924 to 2020, with the expansion primarily driven by mudflat areas. However, reclamation and urbanization activities have led to the conversion of water and mudflat areas into impervious surfaces and urban vegetation, affecting the connectivity and fragmentation of mangrove habitats.

Summary: Our study found that the current levels of anthropogenic exploitation combined with climate-driven variables in the Sicilian wetlands are unsustainable and could lead to the exclusion of many bird species. The avian metacommunity in the wetlands showed a significant nested and non-modular structure, with high beta diversity and random species assemblage. Environmental factors, such as water levels, fluctuations, and discharges, had a positive effect on avian diversity, while water diversion, salinity, and tourism pressure had a negative effect. Understanding the unique structure of the avian metacommunity in the Sicilian wetlands can help inform conservation policies to mitigate risks.

Summary: Waterbirds can serve as indicators of harmful metal levels in aquatic environments. This study found significant differences in metal concentrations in the organs and feathers of different waterbird species and their prey. The research also revealed a strong correlation between metal levels in the prey and in the waterbirds' tissues, organs, and feathers.

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.

Summary: The Ebro Delta coastal wetland, located in the Mediterranean, faces threats such as sediment deficit caused by river regulation, global change effects like sea level rise, temperature increase, and intensified storms. Protection and management strategies are needed to address these challenges.

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.
