The successful conservation of bird species relies upon our
understanding of their habitat use and requirements. In the coming
decades the importance of such knowledge will only grow as climate
change, the development of new energy sources and the needs of a
growing human population intensify the, already significant,
pressure on the habitats that birds depend on. Drawing on valuable
recent advances in our understanding of bird-habitat relationships,
this book provides the first major review of avian habitat
selection in over twenty years. It offers a synthesis of concepts,
patterns and issues that will interest students, researchers and
conservation practitioners. Spatial scales ranging from landscape
to habitat patch are covered, and examples of responses to habitat
change are examined. European landscapes are the main focus, but
the book has far wider significance to similar habitats worldwide,
with examples and relevant material also drawn from North America
and Australia.
