Declines in European bird populations are reported for decades but the direct effect of major anthropogenic pressures on such declines remains unquantified. Causal relationships between and population responses difficult to identify as interact at different spatial scales vary among species. Here, we uncover time-series 170 common species, monitored more than 20,000 sites 28 countries, over 37 y, four widespread pressures: agricultural intensification, change forest cover, urbanisation...

Mountain areas often hold special species communities, and they are high on the list of conservation concern. Global warming changes in human land use, such as grazing pressure afforestation, have been suggested to be major threats for biodiversity mountain areas, affecting abundance causing distribution shifts towards mountaintops. Population poles mountaintops documented several indicating that climate change is one key drivers species' changes. Despite concern, relatively little known...

Abstract Climate change has been associated with both latitudinal and elevational shifts in species’ ranges. The extent, however, to which climate driven recent range alongside other putative drivers remains uncertain. Here, we use the changing distributions of 378 European breeding bird species over 30 years explore dynamics, considering effects climate, land cover, environmental variables, traits on probability local colonisation extinction. On average, shifted their ranges by 2.4 km/year....

Abstract Wetland bird species have been declining in population size worldwide as climate warming and land-use change affect their suitable habitats. We used distribution models (SDMs) to predict changes range dynamics for 64 non-passerine wetland birds breeding Europe, including size, position of centroid, margins. fitted the SDMs with data collected first European Breeding Bird Atlas distributional over a century (the 1970s–2070s). The predicted annual were then compared observed centroid...

Abstract Questions Humans are altering land use and impacting grazing intensities worldwide in alpine sub‐alpine grasslands, functional diversity ( FD ) is a useful tool for predicting changes these grassland communities improving biodiversity conservation. We asked: (1) how does richness FR ic) differ between the five predominant types Andorra (2) of types, which plant subject to high habitat filtering driven primarily by competitive interactions; (3) certain more prone degradation than...

Abstract Aim: This article outlines the implementation and deployment strategy defined by Catalan healthcare system which sought to promote a plan strengthen transform primary care in order provide high-quality services whilst making an optimal use of resources across region. Background: Following COVID-19 pandemic, initiated enhance services. The Lean methodology has been used extensively other sectors for process improvement. More recently, it adopted large hospitals, showing good results,...

Abstract After the COVID-19 pandemic, Catalan healthcare system sought to promote a plan strengthen and transform primary care in order provide high quality services whilst making an optimal use of resources. This article defines implementation deployment strategy across region. The Lean methodology has been used extensively other sectors for process improvement. More recently, it adopted large hospitals, showing good results, so was selected as most appropriate method achieve this project’s...

dictions that mountain bird species have experienced significant declines (c. -7%) during 2002–2014. Mountain specialists showed a c. -10% decline in population numbers, and the slope for generalists was also negative but not significantly so. The slopes of did differ from each other. Fennoscandian south-western populations were on average declining, UK or south-central birds stable situations. Our findings support hypothesis are declining. Thus more efforts should be undertaken to identify...
