Les oiseaux forestiers montrent-ils la même sensibilité à l’exploitation forestière aux échelles du peuplement et du paysage ?
In forest ecosystems, birds represent a species-rich taxon which is relatively easy to survey over large spatial scales. Hence, forest birds (mainly passerines and woodpeckers) have been the focus of numerous studies aiming to assess biological response to forest harvesting. This study aims to deter...

In forest ecosystems, birds represent a species-rich taxon which is relatively easy to survey over large spatial scales. Hence, forest birds (mainly passerines and woodpeckers) have been the focus of numerous studies aiming to assess biological response to forest harvesting. This study aims to determine the comparability of forest bird response to forestry at local (here, 80-m radius circle) and landscape (1-km radius) scales. In other words, can we extrapolate responses to harvesting from one spatial scale to the other? We examined bird response to harvesting using logistic regression models on the presence-absence of 42 species at 390 point count stations located in the Black Brook District, a managed forest landscape of northwestern New Brunswick.
