Increasing bird diversity in a landscape in transition

2026-01-27

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Rural depopulation across Mediterranean uplands has driven farmland extensification and landscape transitions, yet their medium-term impacts on birds remain poorly understood. We resurveyed 213 selected 2 km × 2 km grid cells in the Côa River basin (western Iberia) in 2023–2024, replicating standardized 1999–2005 protocols. Median alpha diversity increased by five species, a 28% gain, w...
