Article
Ana Delgado, Auteur ; Francisco Moreira, AuteurThe Little Bustard is suffering a widespread population decline mainly due to agricultural intensification. This study evaluates the effects of intensification level, habitat availability and rainfall on the population dynamics of this species. [...]
Article
João Paulo Silva, Auteur ; Jorge M. Palmeirim, Auteur ; Francisco Moreira, AuteurPrevious studies have found that densities of little bustard Tetrax tetrax breeding males tend to be higher in areas with smaller agricultural fields, presumably due to increased habitat diversity. However, exceptionally high densities have been[...]
Article
Pedro Rocha, Auteur ; Manuel B. Morales, Auteur ; Francisco Moreira, AuteurWe present results on breeding parameters, nesting performance and nest habitat selection of the globally threatened Great Bustard Otis tarda, gathered during a 3-year study in Castro Verde (southern Portugal). A total of 107 nests were located.[...]

Unravelling migration routes and wintering grounds of European rollers using light-level geolocators
Ines Catry, Auteur ; Teresa Catry, Auteur ; Jose Pedro Granadeiro, Auteur ; Aldina M. A. Franco, Auteur ; Francisco Moreira, AuteurWe used light-level geolocators to track the migratory journey of a globally near-threatened trans-Saharan migrant, the European roller Coracias garrulus, from its breeding grounds in Iberia to its wintering grounds in southern Africa. During au[...]
