Our research on migratory connectivity and strategies of Grey Plovers is now published! Amazing journeys! GP follow a "skipping" strategy and we identified 66! different stopover sites along West African, European and Russian coasts. #migration #tracking nature.com/articles/s4159…

Human-wildlife conflicts are growing worldwide. In the rice fields of the Tagus river basin we made the first attempt to assess cost-effectiveness of dissuasion techniques targeting #waterbirds. 📢Check the results at doi.org/10.1016/j.jenv… #conservation

📢 A Barragem do Pisão NÃO tem interesse público!Continuamos a lutar contra a sua construção, um projeto que ameaça a biodiversidade, com a destruição de habitats protegidos, o abate de 40 mil árvores e a possível contaminação dos solos e água. spea.pt/imprensa/12819/ #StopPisão

A população de rolieiros que nidifica por cá será inferior a 90 casais, quase todos em Castro Verde, Alentejo. Para ajudar a espécie a crescer, estão a nascer 160 caixas-ninho. 🦜 Saiba mais sobre a população portuguesa de rolieiros: publico.pt/2105699

A new publication by PhD student @JoaoCFPP 🦆🌾Our research shows that rice fields complement other #wetlands, supporting unique waterbird communities year-round. @TeresaCatry @JosePGranadeiro @ULisboa_ @ceg_igot @tidal_wings Read more: rdcu.be/dVmls

This week, based in our conclusions and in a subsequent study by fellow researchers, the Portuguese authorities declined the renewal of the Environment Impact Statement, meaning that a new impact study is now imperative for the advancement of the airport construction plans! 🥳🥳

Almost three years ago we published evidence-based research showing the potential impacts for migratory #shorebirds of building an international airport at the heart of the #Tagus estuary. doi.org/10.1017/S09592…

📢#PhD opportunity! We are looking for candidates to develop a project on the spatial ecology of #waterbirds using rice fields and to quantify human-wildlife conflicts. #ornitology #tracking #conservation See details here: drive.google.com/file/d/1_BxfpP…
