11 Οκτ 2021 · We studied the influence of site characteristics and human disturbance on behavior, habitat use, growth rate, and survival of piping plover chicks in New Jersey, a portion of the Atlantic Coast population that continues to demonstrate poor demographic output.
31 Οκτ 2022 · Piping plovers (Charadrius melodus; plover), temperate breeding shorebirds that occur on barrier islands in parts of their range, experienced range-wide population declines prior to their listing under the United States Endangered Species Act in 1986 (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service [USFWS] 1985).
1 Δεκ 2021 · Coastal ecosystems support diverse and dynamic assemblages of species yet are increasingly being affected by stressors including climate change (e.g., sea level rise and increased frequency of extreme weather), pollution (e.g., oil spills), and habitat loss from human activities.
Wintering piping plovers use a variety of habitats and move among these patches in response to local weather and tidal conditions. Coastal habitats include sand spits, small islands, tidal flats, shoals and sandbars with inlets.
1 Ιουν 2019 · In areas minimally affected by human use, plover habitat loss occurs through vegetation encroachment and erosion. Alternatively, habitat availability may be increased by sand deposition...
1 Δεκ 2021 · Loss of habitat and human disturbance are major factors in the worldwide decline of shorebird populations, including that of the threatened migratory piping plover (Charadrius melodus).
Habitat loss has caused serious declines and threats to Piping Plover populations, particularly from shoreline development and stabilization projects, energy development, climate change, and plastic pollution.
