Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Special Issue titled “Ecology, Distribution, and Conservation of Endangered Birds” in Diversity focuses on various aspects of avian ecology, particularly concerning endangered species. It is likely to cover the following themes based on the journal's scope:
- Ecological Studies: Research on the ecological roles of endangered bird species, including their interactions within ecosystems and their contributions to biodiversity.
- Distribution Patterns: Analysis of the geographical distribution of endangered birds, identifying hotspots of diversity and areas at risk due to habitat loss or climate change.
- Conservation Strategies: Discussions on effective conservation measures, including habitat protection, restoration efforts, and policy recommendations aimed at mitigating threats to endangered bird populations.
- Impact of Human Activities: Examination of how human-induced factors such as urbanization, agriculture, and climate change affect the survival of endangered birds.
- Case Studies: Specific examples of endangered bird species and the unique challenges they face, along with successful conservation initiatives.
