Movement ecology of Afrotropical birds: Functional traits provide complementary insights to species identity

2019-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Effects of anthropogenic activities on habitats and species communities and populations are complex and vary across species depending on their ecological traits. Movement ecology may provide important insights into species’ responses to habitat structures and quality. We investigated how movement behavior across a human‐modified landscape depends on species identity and species traits, with particular focus on hab...
