Thesis Abstract

Abstract
Climate change is a pressing global issue that significantly impacts biodiversity worldwide. Avian species, in particular, are highly vulnerable to the effects of climate change due to their specific habitat requirements and ecological sensitivities. This thesis investigates the effects of climate change on avian species distribution and behavior, aiming to understand how these changes influence the ecological dynamics of avian populations. The study begins with a comprehensive literature review exploring the current understanding of climate change impacts on avian species. Various factors such as temperature shifts, altered precipitation patterns, and changing habitat availability are considered in relation to their effects on avian distribution and behavior. The research methodology section outlines the approach taken to collect and analyze data, including field surveys, behavioral observations, and statistical modeling techniques. The findings of the study reveal significant shifts in avian species distribution patterns in response to climate change. Some species demonstrate range expansions into new habitats, while others experience range contractions or shifts in migratory patterns. Behavioral changes, such as altered breeding times or foraging behaviors, are also observed in response to changing environmental conditions. The discussion section delves into the implications of these findings for avian populations and ecosystem dynamics. The interplay between climate change, habitat loss, and species interactions is examined to understand the broader implications for avian biodiversity. Conservation strategies and management practices are discussed to mitigate the negative impacts of climate change on avian species. In conclusion, this thesis highlights the urgent need for proactive conservation measures to safeguard avian species in the face of climate change. By understanding the complex interactions between environmental factors and avian populations, we can better inform conservation efforts and promote the resilience of avian species in a changing world. This research contributes to the growing body of knowledge on climate change impacts on biodiversity and underscores the importance of protecting avian species for the health of ecosystems and human well-being.
