Climate change drives bird populations on both sides of the Atlantic

New research involving the BTO shows how bird populations are consistently responding to the effects of climate change on two continents. The study, led by the University of Durham, analysed data on abundance collected between 1980 and 2010 from 145 common species in Europe, and 380 in North America. UK data includes records collected by volunteers taking part in the BTO/JNCC/RSPB Breeding Bird Survey and its predecessor the Common Birds Census, both coordinated by the BTO.
