Overview

Field study shows how microclimate and human activities impact avifauna diversity in a mangrove ecosystem.

Key Points

  • Diversity of avifauna was found to be negatively affected by microclimate factors like rainfall and humidity, and human activities introduced additional pressures.
  • A total of 20 bird species and four mangrove species were recorded, with sampling methods including point-count and mist-netting across the mangrove habitat.
  • Canonical Correspondence Analysis revealed specific relationships between avifauna and mangrove conditions, indicating ecological preferences.
  • Findings underscore the need for enhanced policies to protect diverse avifauna from human impacts and altered microclimates.
