Decline of Common Toad Populations in Flanders Is Not Linked to Surrounding Landscape

Ellen Blomme, Henri Rommel, Femke Batsleer, Lieven Clement et autres

ABSTRACT Despite their significance in ecosystems, the decline of common species receives little attention in conservation. Identifying the underlying drivers of common species declines is necessary to mitigate further biodiversity loss. Common Toads ( Bufo bufo ) in Europe are emblematic of …

Decline of Common Toad populations in Flanders is not linked to surrounding landscape

Ellen Blomme, Henri Rommel, Femke Batsleer, Lieven Clement et autres

Abstract Aim We aim to quantify population trends of Common Toad in Flanders and assess to which extent population trends depend on general landscape variables (land use identity, structure and change). Location Flanders, Belgium Methods Using standardized time series obtained from citizen …

Consistent phenological advancement of Common Toad migration in response to climate change in Flanders, Belgium

Ellen Blomme, Femke Batsleer, Hans Matheve, Dominique Verbelen et autres

Abstract Many species use temperature as a cue to time certain life events. Such phenological events can be particularly sensitive to climate change. In amphibians, seasonal migration events between ponds and winter habitats are crucial to ensure reproduction. Therefore, shifts in phenological …

Wire marking reduces bird collisions with a transmission powerline in western Belgium

Dominique Verbelen, Wim Bovens, James F. Dwyer, Kristijn RR Swinnen

Summary Collisions with powerlines affect birds worldwide, including countries such as Belgium where a nationwide model indicated high avian collision risk in the IJzerbroeken region (seasonally flooded riverside wetlands). Large numbers of waterbirds winter in this area, which is crossed by a …

Sensitivity mapping informs mitigation of bird mortality by collision with high-voltage power lines

Jean‐Yves Paquet, Kristijn RR Swinnen, Antoine Derouaux, Koen Devos et autres

Mapping the relative risk of impact on nature by a human infrastructure at a landscape scale (“sensitivity mapping”) is an essential tool for minimising the future impact of new development or for prioritising mitigation of existing impacts. High-voltage power lines (“transmission lines”) …
