Implication

Randomized trial reveals key environmental drivers affecting waterbird diversity in reclaimed wetlands, suggesting management strategies for habitat enhancement.

Key Points

This research aims to assess waterbird diversity in reclaimed artificial wetlands and identify environmental factors influencing their distribution.
Conducted waterbird diversity surveys in Shuoxi Lake Wetland, Huaibei.
Performed redundancy analysis (RDA), Mantel tests, and ridge regression models to analyze environmental impacts.
Classified wetland habitats and recorded species across different environmental conditions.
Identified 28 waterbird species across 7 families and 6 orders in the reclaimed wetland.
RDA indicated wader assemblages were sensitive to vegetation cover and distance to water bodies.
Ridge regression showed perimeter to area ratio negatively affected waterfowl diversity significantly.
