Global macroecology of bird assemblages in urbanized and semi-natural ecosystems
Original language description
Aim: Despite the increasing pace of urbanization, little is known about how this process affects biodiversity globally. We investigate macroecological patterns of bird assemblages in urbanized areas relative to semi-natural ecosystems. Location: World-wide. Methods: We use a database of quantitative bird surveys to compare key assemblage structure parameters for plots in urbanized and semi-natural ecosystems controlling for spatial autocorrelation and survey methodology. We use the term ''urbanized'' instead of ''urban'' ecosystems as many of the plots were not located in the centre of towns but in remnant habitat patches within conurbations. Results: Some macroecological relationships were conserved in urbanized landscapes. Species-area, species-abundance and species-biomass relationships did not differ significantly between urbanized and non-urbanized environments. However, there were differences in the relationships between productivity and assemblage structure. In forests, species
