Home Range and Habitat Use of Cooper's Hawks in Urban and Natural Areas 330 $aNow that more than half of the world's population lives in cities, the study of birds in urban ecosystems has emerged at the forefront of ornithological research. An international team of leading researchers in urban bird ecology and conservation from across Europe and North America presents the state of this diverse field, addressing classic questions while proposing new directions for further study. Areas of particular focus include the processes underlying patterns of species shifts along urban-rural gradients, the demography of urban birds and the role of citizen science, and human-avian interaction in urban areas. This important reference fills a crucial need for scientists, planners, and managers of urban spaces and all those interested in the study and conservation of birds in the world's expanding metropolises. 410 0$aStudies in Avian Biology 606 $aBirds$xEcology 606 $aBirds$xConservation 606 $aUrban animals$xEcology 606 $aUrban animals$xConservation 610 $abiology. 610 $abird ecology. 610 $abirds in urban ecosystems. 610 $abooks for bird watchers. 610 $abooks for science lovers. 610 $acities and environment. 610 $aconservation of birds. 610 $ademography of birds. 610 $adiscussion books. 610 $adistractions for kids. 610 $aeasy to read. 610 $aeducational books. 610 $aengaging. 610 $aeuropean environment. 610 $ahistory of cities. 610 $ainformative books. 610 $alife sciences. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $anorth american environments. 610 $aornithological books. 610 $apage turner. 610 $ascience and math. 610 $ascience in cities. 610 $aspecies adaption. 610 $aspecies of birds. 610 $aurban birds. 610 $aurban ecosystems. 615 0$aBirds$xEcology. 615 0$aBirds$xConservation. 615 0$aUrban animals$xEcology. 615 0$aUrban animals$xConservation. 676 $a598 701 $aLepczyk$b Christopher A$g(Christopher Andrew),$f1970-$01561164 701 $aWarren$b Paige S$g(Paige Shannon)$01561165 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910785967603321 996 $aUrban bird ecology and conservation$93827668 997 $aUNINA
