Résumé
Behavioral changes are often animals' first responses to environmental change and may act as a bellwether for population viability. Nonetheless, most studies of habitat conversion focus on changes in species occurrences or abundances. We analyzed >14,000 behavioral observations across 55 bird species in communities in northwestern Costa Rica to determine how land use affects reproductive, foraging, and other passive kinds of behaviors not associated with either foraging or reproduction. Specifically, we quantified differences in behaviors between farms, privately owned forests, and protected areas and implemented a novel modeling framework to account for variation in detection among behaviors. This framework entailed estimating abundances of birds performing different behaviors while allowing detection probabilities of individuals to vary by behavior. Birds were 1.2 times more likely to exhibit reproductive behaviors in forest than in agriculture and 1.5 times more likely to exhibit reproductive behaviors in protected areas than in private forests. Species were not always most abundant in the habitats where they were most likely to exhibit foraging or reproductive behaviors. Finally, species of higher conservation concern were less abundant in agriculture than in forest. Together, our results highlight the importance of behavioral analyses for elucidating the conservation value of different land uses. Efectos de la agricultura y las reservas naturales sobre el comportamiento de las aves en el noroeste de Costa Rica Resumen Los cambios conductuales suelen ser la primera respuesta de los animales ante el cambio ambiental y pueden funcionar como un barómetro para la viabilidad poblacional. Sin embargo, la mayoría de los estudios sobre la conversión del hábitat se enfocan en cambios en la presencia o abundancia de las especies. Analizamos más de 14,000 observaciones conductuales en las comunidades de 55 especies de aves del noroeste de Costa Rica para determinar cómo el uso de suelo afectó el comportamiento reproductivo, de forrajeo y otras formas pasivas no asociadas con las dos anteriores. En específico, cuantificamos las diferencias en el comportamiento entre granjas, bosques de propiedad privada y áreas protegidas e implementamos un marco novedoso de modelado para justificar la variación en la detección entre los comportamientos. Este marco implicó estimar la abundancia de aves que realizaban diferentes comportamientos mientras permitía que variaran las probabilidades de detección de individuos según el comportamiento. Fue 1.2 veces más probable que las aves exhibieran comportamiento reproductivo en el bosque que en las zonas agrícolas y 1.5 veces más probable que exhibieran estos comportamientos en las áreas protegidas que en los bosques privados. Las especies no siempre fueron las más abundantes en los hábitats en donde era más probable que exhibieran comportamientos reproductivos o de forrajeo. Por último, las especies de mayor preocupación para la conservación fueron menos abundantes en las zonas agrícolas que en los bosques. En conjunto, nuestros resultados resaltan la importancia del análisis conductual para ilustrar el valor de conservación de los diferentes usos de suelo. 行为变化通常是动物对环境变化的第一反应, 可用于指示种群生存能力的变化。然而, 大多数关于栖息地转换的研究都侧重于物种的分布或丰度变化。本研究分析了哥斯达黎加西北部地区群落中55种鸟类超过14,000次的行为观察数据, 以确定土地利用类型对繁殖、觅食和除此之外其他被动行为的影响。具体来说, 我们量化分析了鸟类在农场、私有森林和保护地之间的行为差异, 并构建了一个新的模型框架来解释监测到的行为差异。该框架需要估计鸟类不同行为出现的丰度, 同时允许个体的监测概率因行为而异。结果显示, 鸟类在森林中表现出繁殖行为的几率是在农业区的1.2倍, 在保护地表现出繁殖行为的几率是在私有森林的1.5倍。而鸟类最有可能觅食或繁殖的栖息地, 物种丰度并不是最高的。最后, 农业区相比于森林, 出现的受保护程度较高的物种数量较少。总之, 我们的研究结果凸显了行为分析在阐明不同土地利用类型的保护价值方面的重要性。【翻译: 胡怡思; 审校: 聂永刚】.
