European Nuthatch Metapopulations in a Fragmented Agricultural Landscape
Abstract
The European nuthatch Sitta europaea, which inhabits mature deciduous and mixed forest, has a fragmented distribution in the agricultural landscapes of Western Europe. Nuthatches have a high site fidelity, which makes them potentially sensitive to fragmentation. In earlier studies patch area and isolation were found to be related to nuthatch distribution pattern. In this paper, three times series of occurrence data are analysed to assess the effects of patch size (carrying capacity), habitat quality and isolation on the processes of local extinction and colonization.The results are interpreted in terms of a modified Levins metapopulation model, with patches of unequal size and habitat quality and effects of inter-patch distance and configuration.A method is presented to estimate the parameters of this model

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
