Abstract:
The coast of Aceh Besar and Banda Aceh is one of the areas that is a stopover site for migratory shorebirds. This study aims to identify the types of migratory shorebirds and habitat types that support the presence of migratory shorebirds on the coast of Aceh Besar and Banda Aceh. The research was conducted in February to April 2024. The method used in this study is Purposive sampling with Point count. Data collection of migratory shorebirds species is carried out using point count. The study results show that 1.244 individuals migratory shorebird visit on the coast of Aceh Besar, that is Nume

SummaryThe Saemangeum tidal flat, an important staging site for migratory shorebirds that travel the East Asian-Australasian (EAA) Flyway, was isolated from the eastern Yellow Sea in 2006 as part of a large-scale reclamation project. To gain a better understanding of the impacts that this reclamation has had on the long-distance migratory shorebirds that use the EAA Flyway, we examined the number of shorebirds visiting Saemangeum and three adjacent sites in the Geum Estuary (Yubu Island, the Janghang coastline, and the Geum River Channel) during the spring and fall prior to, and after, complet

Abstract:
Migratory shorebirds are declining in all transequatorial flyways, most rapidly in the East Asian–Australasian Flyway. Population trends for shorebirds have been derived at a flyway and continental scale, but changes at the local scale are less well understood. Here we compare trends in migratory shorebird populations using natural and artificial roost sites within a tropical harbour, examine possible drivers of change, and identify appropriate conservation management responses. Counts of 19 migratory shorebird species from 2010 and 2018 showed that total abundance increased at an average annu

Abstract:
Migratory animals play vital ecological roles in ecosystems worldwide, yet many species are threatened by human activities. Understanding the detailed patterns of habitat use throughout the migration cycle is critical to developing effective conservation strategies for these species. Migratory shorebirds undertake some of the longest known migrations, but they are also declining precipitously worldwide. To better understand the dynamics of shorebird declines along the East Asian–Australasian Flyway, we quantified the spatiotemporal foraging distribution of 17 migratory shorebirds at two critic

Habitat fragmentation and degradation in natural wetlands has resulted in declines in the populations of shorebirds in the Indian subcontinent. Shorebirds rely on these wetlands as wintering or stop-over sites along the southern extent of the Central Asian Flyway. Shorebirds are known to utilize agroecosystems as alternate foraging habitats. The suitability of agroecosystems as foraging areas for overwintering migratory shorebirds has not been well studied in the Indian subcontinent.

Abstract:
Animal populations take advantage of environmental heterogeneity to partition themselves into microhabitat niches. Such partitioning plays an important role in regulating interspecific competition and community structure by allowing multiple species to coexist. Atlantic Canada has many small coastal staging sites that host southbound migrant shorebirds. However, most shorebird studies in the region have been focused on larger sites in the Bay of Fundy, resulting in limited knowledge about staging ecology at these small sites, which often host more diverse shorebird assemblages.

Abstract:
Migratory birds require one or more stopover sites to refuel during their migration journeys between breeding and wintering sites. Many migratory birds have suffered population decline due to habitat loss and degradation at key stopover sites. This issue is particularly pronounced for migratory shorebirds in the East Asian-Australasian Flyway (EAAF). Loss of intertidal wetlands, the critical foraging habitats for shorebirds, in the Yellow Sea region has threatened population maintenance of many species along the EAAF.

Many migratory shorebirds rely on estuaries as stop-over sites to refuel during migration, and the loss of stop-over sites is a primary threat to shorebird populations on the West Coast of the United States (e.g. Calidris alpina pacifica, C. mauri).

Furthermore, the reasons for site selection are largely unknown.

Implementing offsets in the marine environment has a number of challenges, so alternative approaches may be necessary.

Abstract:
Shorebirds, or Waders, are called sentinels of global environmental change. Many of these species breed in the arctic and subarctic and migrate back to tropical and temperate regions in their non-breeding seasons. Presently, more than half of shorebird populations with documented trends are in decline and migratory species are more inclined to be impacted. The extent and taxonomic range of the shorebird populations' decreases, along with facts showing that the Arctic is experiencing a higher rate of temperature rise than the rest of the world, indicate global warming as the probable cause of these declines. Primary factors responsible for their decline are degraded habitat quality, which has been influenced by anthropogenic activities and climate change. This highlights the necessity to pinpoint the drives of challenges in order to implement successful conservation measures. In this chapter, the authors aimed to understand the perspective on how and where the habitats of shorebirds are changing and factors responsible for their declines.

Abstract The migratory flight itself has long been regarded as one of the most hazardous stages of the life cycle of migratory birds. In their review of the importance of migration in shorebird populations, Pienkowski and Evans (1985) recognized that mass deaths probably occurred frequently, though there were great difficulties in quantifying such mortality. They also recognized that these most often related to young birds, and pointed out that this could be for two reasons: failure to grow and lay down sufficient fat reserves to complete migration in the short Arctic summer and possible competition with adults on the staging areas.
