Urbanisation and land-cover change affect functional, but not compositional turnover of bird communities

Abstract: Land-use and land-cover change strongly affect biodiversity patterns and are assumed to be growing threats in the future. Particularly increasing urbanisation may affect species turnover and functional composition of biological communities. This study aimed to assess the characteristics of land-cover change in a medium-sized urban municipality from 2011 to 2018, and the effects of urbanisation on avian species- and functional diversity. The study was performed in Trondheim (Norway), using local land-cover maps… Show more

“…Urbanization impacts on bird populations and species diversity have been widely documented and discussed (Marzluff & Rodewald, 2008;Aronson et al, 2014;Snep et al, 2016;Petersen et al, 2022;Afrifa et al, 2023). Landcover changes directly in uence climatic conditions, food resources, introduce predation by pets or exotic species; urban development potentially affects animal behaviour, reproduction, survival, immigration and emigration, increasing or decreasing the viability of animal populations (Marzluff & Rodewald, 2008).…”

“…Urban ecosystems drive landcover change, which results in irreversible and persistent changes to the landscape (Akubia et al, 2020;Loram et al, 2007). Consequently, it leads to profound impacts on species diversity and distribution by altering, fragmenting, and causing habitat loss for many species (Marzluff, 2001;Melles et al, 2003;Petersen et al, 2022).…”
