The effects of pond management on the benthic community and shorehbirds at Sungei Buloh Nature Park, Singapore
Migratory shorebirds flying southwards to escape the harsh winter may make use of one of the routes, the Asian-Australian Flyway. Successful migration requires that the birds make regular feeding stops, such as at the mudflats of coastal Malaysia and Singapore. I studied one such feeding site in Sin...

description | Migratory shorebirds flying southwards to escape the harsh winter may make use of one of the routes, the Asian-Australian Flyway. Successful migration requires that the birds make regular feeding stops, such as at the mudflats of coastal Malaysia and Singapore. I studied one such feeding site in Singapore, at the Sungei Buloh Nature Park, to investigate the effects of artificial manipulation of mudflats on the quantity of the birds' food supply. |
