Abstract:Climate and land use/land cover (LULC) changes have far-reaching effects on various biological processes in wildlife, particularly interspecific interactions. Unfortunately, interspecific interactions are often overlooked when assessing the impacts of environmental changes on endangered species. In this study, we analyzed niche similarities and habitat overlaps among wild Crested Ibis and sympatric Egret and Heron species (EHs) in Shaanxi, China. We aimed to forecast potential alterations in habitat overlaps d… Show more
