Nest sites as a key resource for population persistence: A case study modelling nest occupancy under forestry practices.

Natural nest sites are important breeding resource in terms of population dynamics, especially in forest systems where nest trees limit populations or timber harvesting destroys nests.Nest structures usually have a long life and can be reused by breeding pairs across multiple breeding seasons, so studying their dynamics is of relevance for biodiver

Modelling potential distribution of fluvial fish species for expanding conservation knowledge: Case study of the genus Barbus in Iran

Species Bracelet inhabiting fresh waters are severely influenced by anthropogenic factors.Effective management and conservation plans require high accurate and reliable species distribution forecasts.Here, we modelled potential distribution of the genus Barbus in Iran, based on environmental variables using Species Distribution Models (SDMs).Six en
