Demographic and behavioral responses of the White-winged Dove to human disturbances during winter in northwestern Mexico .

Figures of the Article

Map of the study site. Top left: location of Los Mochis, Sinaloa, at northwestern Mexico. Top right: shrublands at the outskirts of Los Mochis, located about 10 km southwest from the site where we surveyed cropfields. Bottom: Los Mochis urban area and its adjacent cropfields. We surveyed the White-winged Dove in 120 point count stations (30 per land use) located within urban green areas (circles), urban grey areas (triangles), cropfields (squares), and shrublands (stars).
Variation of disturbance types between urban grey areas, urban green areas, shrublands (S), and cropfields (C) in Los Mochis, Sinaloa. Letters above columns depict significant differences among land uses.
Relationship between (A) pavement cover, (B) building cover, (C) pedestrians and the density (individuals per hectare) of the White-winged Dove during winter. Black dashed lines depict 95% confidence intervals of density estimations. Grey dashed lines show mean values of disturbance types for each land use. Grey = urban grey areas; Green = urban green areas; S = shrublands; C = cropfields.
