Conservation of Declining Populations

Conservation of Declining Populations

Conservation of declining population focuses on ways of detecting, diagnosing, and halting a population decline. The approach uses methods to prevent populations from going extinct.

Habitat Fragmentation

Habitat Fragmentation

Habitat fragmentation describes the division of a more extensive, continuous habitat into smaller, discontinuous areas. Human activities such as land conversion, as well as slower geological processes leading to changes in the physical environment, are the two leading causes of habitat fragmentation. The fragmentation process typically follows the same steps: perforation, dissection, fragmentation, shrinkage, and attrition.

What is Biodiversity?

What is Biodiversity?

Biodiversity describes the variety of living things at multiple organizational levels: genetic, species and ecosystem diversity. Species diversity includes all branches of the evolutionary tree from single-celled prokaryotic organisms, bacteria, and archaea, to the eukaryotic kingdoms: plants; animals; fungi; and protists. To date, there have been about 1.75 million species identified, and new species are discovered every week.

Ecological Disturbance

Ecological Disturbance

An ecological disturbance is a temporary disruption in the environment resulting from abiotic, biotic, or anthropogenic factors, causing a pronounced change in an ecosystem. The impact of an ecological disturbance, which can depend on its intensity, frequency, and spatial distribution, plays a significant role in shaping the species diversity within the ecosystem.

Biodiversity and Human Values

Biodiversity and Human Values

Human civilization relies on biodiversity in many ways. Sudden changes in species biodiversity result in environmental changes that can modify weather patterns and therefore human civilizations.

Threats to Biodiversity

Threats to Biodiversity

There have been five major extinction events throughout geological history, resulting in the elimination of biodiversity, followed by a rebound of species that adapted to the new conditions. In the current geological epoch, the Holocene, there is a sixth extinction event in progress. This mass extinction has been attributed to human activities and is thus provisionally called the Anthropocene. In 2019 the human population reached 7.7 billion people and is projected to comprise 10 billion by...

Area of Science:

Urban Ecology
Landscape Architecture
Biodiversity Conservation

Background:

Urbanization drives habitat loss and biodiversity decline.
Urban green spaces are crucial for mitigating biodiversity loss, particularly for birds.
Effective landscape design can support or enhance urban bird diversity.

Purpose of the Study:

To conduct a bibliometric analysis of research on landscape architecture and bird diversity from 2002-2022.
To review research hotspots, historical development, and emerging frontiers in this field.
To discuss strategies for harmonious human-bird coexistence in urban landscapes.

Main Methods:

Bibliometric analysis of 4112 papers published between 2002 and 2022.
Utilized CiteSpace software for analyzing publication trends, core authors, and geographical distribution.
Systematic review of research hotspots, development stages, and frontiers.

Main Results:

Research on landscape architecture and bird diversity has been a high-priority area from 2002-2022, indicating a mature discipline.
Identified four key research hotspots: bird communities, influencing factors, activity rhythms, and ecological/ornamental values.
Mapped four distinct development stages and identified several emerging research frontiers.

Conclusions:

Future landscape construction should integrate bird activity characteristics.
Developing effective landscape strategies and management principles is essential for human-bird coexistence.
Continued research is vital for optimizing urban biodiversity conservation through landscape design.
