Predicting Occurrence of Area-sensitive Forest Birds

by Amanda Dey, Lawrence J. Niles, Joanna Burger

Forest fragmentation is well studied from the perspective of avian reproductive and pairing success, species richness, abundance and occurrence. It is less clear how non-forest habitats affect bird occurrence and appropriate spatial scales (spatial extent) to measure such effects. Few studies examine how birds respond to landscape configuration at spatial scales useful for conservation and land-use planning; i.e., to identify important habitats and...
