Résumé :
|
The Greater Flamingo (Phoenicopterus roseus) is listed in the appendices of several international conservation agreements including the Barcelona Convention. We combined 30 years of data from the International Waterbird Censuses (IWC) across North Africa, coordinated by the Mediterranean Waterbirds Network (MWN), with over 30 years of monitoring by the “The Network for the study and conservation of the Greater Flamingos in the Mediterranean and West Africa” to assess trends of the species in the Mediterranean basin. Wintering bird count data were analysed using a new statistical approach called LORI, while breeding data were summarized through descriptive analyses. The number of breeding pairs in the Camargue, as well as across the broader Mediterranean region, has generally increased over the past few decades. A similar trend has been observed for wintering flamingos in North Africa. In the last five years, both breeding and wintering populations appear to stabilize despite important fluctuations from year to year. Strengthening the link between breeding and wintering monitoring networks could provide critical insights into emerging trends and underlying causes of these changes.
