“…Previous studies have demonstrated that the foraging radii of most shorebirds do not exceed 5 km (Lange et al, 2018;Gutowsky et al, 2019). Therefore, the present study divided the coastal area of Guangdong Province into 10 km × 10 km grids using the kilometer grid method, resulting in the establishment of 87 quadrants (Figure 1).…”

“…Our study was not able to determine causation of band wear, but differences in band wear between lesser scaup and redheads suggest that factors in addition to salinity are important in determining whether a banded species might exhibit excessive band wear. We were surprised to find that redhead, a species using predominantly hypersaline habitats during winter would experience band wear rates roughly half as much as lesser scaup, a species wintering in a variety of fresh and saline environments (Adair et al 1996, Herring and Collazo 2005, Lange 2014, Lange et al 2018).…”

“…This shallow subtropical lagoon is bordered on the east by a barrier island, Padre Island, the longest barrier island in the world. The elevation of Padre Island is slightly above the sea level averaging 1.5 ~ 3.0 m, except for the large sand dune with an elevation of 6.1 ~ 9.1 m (Lange et al, 2018). The Bahia Grande is considered one of the largest marine restoration projects in the U.S., and it includes five counties (Cameron, Willacy, Hidalgo, Kenedy, and Starr).…”

“…However, the LLM is not currently part of the NEP despite the fact that the area has experienced rapid economic and population growth in the past 30 years. The proximity of Cameron County to the coast makes it vulnerable to inundation due to the low elevation which ranges from sea level to 18 m (60 ft), in addition to the potential impacts of sea rise concern (Brown et al, 1977;Lange et al, 2018). With population growth and concomitant development pressure in South Texas, the future of the LLM without an estuary program is problematic.…”
