Abstract:To assess the Siberian crane (Grus leucogeranus)’s response to changing water levels and habitat quality at Poyang Lake, we analyzed the lake’s hydrological trends over the past two decades with the Mann-Kendall and Sen slope methods. Additionally, we explored the link between the crane population size and hydrological conditions at the lake from 2011 to 2019. Meanwhile, five environmental factors, including habitat type, distance from shallow lakes, human footprint index, elevation and normalized vegetation i… Show more
