Overview

Randomized trial assesses avian diversity drivers in Sanjiang Plain, suggesting tailored conservation strategies.

Key Points

  • The study aims to understand how natural and anthropogenic factors influence avian diversity in the Sanjiang Plain.
  • Used structural equation modeling to analyze the effects of drivers on habitat quality and avian richness.
  • Evaluated separately for waterbirds and land birds.
  • Focused on quantifying natural factors like soil organic carbon and NDVI alongside anthropogenic influences.
  • Habitat quality is mainly driven by natural factors: SOC, NDVI, and topography.
  • Natural drivers have a stronger impact on avian diversity compared to human activities.
  • Waterbirds showed greater association with SOC and temperature pathways, while land birds responded to climate and human disturbance.
