Circular Bedforms Due to Pit Foraging of Greater Flamingo <i>Phoenicopterus roseus</i> in a Back-Barrier Intertidal Habitat

Circular Bedforms Due to Pit Foraging of Greater Flamingo <i>Phoenicopterus roseus</i> in a Back-Barrier Intertidal Habitat

The Greater Flamingo <i>Phoenicopterus roseus</i> is known as an ecosystem engineer, rearranging sediment in peculiar bedforms as a consequence of its filter-feeding behaviour. In recent decades, the populations of the Greater Flamingo have notably increased, and now the species is one o...
