Changes in bird community composition in the Czech Republic from 1982 to 2004: increasing biotic homogenization, impacts of warming climate, but no trend in species richness

Original language description

Recent major environmental changes could lead to homogenization in the composition of plant and animal communities, with generalist species replacing more specialized species, as well as to the increased domination of species adapted to warmer climatic conditions. Using common bird monitoring data, we have tested whether these patterns can be observed in the long-term changes in the structure and species richness of bird communities in the Czech Republic. We focused on a comparison of two time periods (1982-1990 and 1991-2004) that differ in land use (high agricultural intensity in the former, and a drop in agricultural intensity accompanied by forest expansion in the latter). We found that bird communities became less specialized and that this declinein specialization did not change after 1990. In contrast, taxonomic homogenization increased during the first time period but declined at the beginning of the second one. Moreover, the community composition developed towards a dominance
