Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Publicación conjunta de Durham University, RSPB y Lynx Edicions en asociación con University of Cambridge, BirdLife International y EBCC. Se trata del primer libro que realiza una investigación exhaustiva de la relación entre la distribución de las aves nidificantes en Europa y el clima actual, y de cómo el cambio climático podría alterar la distribución potencial de nidificación de cada especie. Los resultados se presentan de manera detallada para 431 especies, con reseñas breves para otras 48 especies nativas y 16 introducidas. El volumen incluye resúmenes de los patrones climáticos y de vegetación en Europa, un análisis biogeográfico de las aves nidificantes de dicho continente, una revisión de la base de los estudios sobre las relaciones entre la distribución de las especies y el clima y un debate sobre los métodos utilizados en dichos estudios. Contiene también un sumario de los cambios previstos que experimentará el clima en Europa hasta finales de siglo así como un debate sobre la respuesta de las especies al cambio climático. Además, para cada una de las 431 especies, se incluye un breve resumen de su distribución y ecología, mapas de su distribución recientemente corregida y de su potencial futura distribución a finales del siglo XXI, una representación gráfica de la respuesta de cada especie a las tres variables bioclimáticas principales, acompañada de un texto describiendo los posibles efectos que el cambio climático pueda tener sobre dichas especies. Finalmente, se incluye una síntesis y una recapitulación de los resultados obtenidos del conjunto de 431 especies examinadas y una sección final presentando las implicaciones de estos resultados, especialmente con respecto a la conservación de aves en Europa.

This book was released on 2021-02-16 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A richly illustrated, state-of-the-art field guide for identifying European passerines in flight—the first of its kind Opening up new frontiers in birdwatching, this is the first field guide to focus specifically on the identification of European passerines and related landbirds in flight. Showcasing 850 stunning and remarkably lifelike colour illustrations from acclaimed bird artist Tomasz Cofta, produced using the latest digital technology, backed up with more than 2,400 photographs carefully selected to show typical flight profiles, it provides detailed and unsurpassed coverage of 205 European passerines and 32 near-passerines. This cutting-edge book brings a new dimension to birdwatching, the concise and authoritative species accounts presenting novel yet essential information on the flight manner of individual birds and the structure and behaviour of flocks—features that are key to identification. It also includes precise transliterations of flight calls, supported by sonograms, and links to a unique collection of hundreds of online audio recordings. Beautifully designed and written in an accessible style, this book will appeal to birdwatchers of all abilities. It presents the latest knowledge on flight identification of a group of birds that is poorly covered in the literature and is therefore a must-have for all professional ornithologists and scientists involved in migration studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Birds: ID Insights is ideal for birders of all levels. Its unique layout, comparing the plumages of similar pairs and groups of species, makes it perfect for identifying the more difficult birds found in Britain and other parts of north-west Europe. It has more images showing how to age birds than any comparable guide, and its handy compact size makes it practical for taking out into the field. The book is based on a long-running series of identification features in Bird Watching magazine. Author Dominic Couzens and artist David Nurney have spent years compiling the field notes and artworks for this series, and here their efforts are drawn together and made complete in a single volume that is easy to carry in the field and practical for birders to use. In addition they have expanded the species list from the magazine series and added many new birds, including the likes of Subalpine Warbler, Short-toed Lark, and Red-rumped Swallow. In total, the book covers more than 230 species, with easy-to-identify species such as Magpie and Kingfisher given minimal coverage so that the more difficult ID issues can be covered as fully as possible.

Book excerpt: Ecology and Conservation of Forest Birds is a unique review of current understanding of the relationships between forest birds and their changing environments. Large ecological changes are being driven by forest management, climate change, introduced pests and pathogens, abiotic disturbances, and overbrowsing. Many forest bird species have suffered population declines, with the situation being particularly severe for birds dependent on attributes such as dead wood, old trees and structurally complex forests. With a focus on the non-tropical parts of the Northern Hemisphere, the text addresses the fundamental evolutionary and ecological aspects of forest birds using original data analyses and synthesising reviews. The characteristics of bird assemblages and their habitats in different European forest types are explored, together with the macroecological patterns of bird diversity and conservation issues. The book provides a valuable reference for ecologists, ornithologists, conservation professionals, forest industry employees, and those interested in birds and nature.
