为限制新型冠状病毒疾病（COVID-19）的传播而实施的广泛封锁为了解人类的存在如何影响生态系统提供了难得的机会。利用长期海鸟监测数据，我们揭示了旅游团对波罗的海一个标志性海鸟种群的先前隐藏的保护作用。2020年游客的减少导致白尾鹰（halaliaeetus albicilla）的数量增加了7倍，它们对普通murres Uria alge繁殖的干扰增加了7倍，导致murres的生产力比长期平均水平低26%。鹰不捕食海鸠，但它们频繁的干扰推迟了产卵时间，并促进了鲱鱼鸥和冠鸦的捕食。基于我们的研究结果，我们建议人类的存在可以作为保护海鸟种群的战略措施，并且社会生态系统的观点对于保护区管理的长期成功至关重要。
The widespread lockdowns put in place to limit the spread of the new coronavirus disease (COVID-19) offers a rare opportunity in understanding how human presence influence ecosystems. Using data from long-term seabird monitoring, we reveal a previously concealed guarding effect by tourist groups on an iconic seabird colony in the Baltic Sea. The absence of tourists in 2020 lead to a sevenfold increase in presence of white-tailed eagles Haliaeetus albicilla, a sevenfold increase in their disturbance of breeding common murres Uria aalge and causing 26% lower murre productivity than the long-term average. Eagles did not prey on murres, but their frequent disturbances delayed egg laying and facilitated egg predation from herring gulls Larus argentatus and hooded crows Corvus cornix. Based on our findings, we suggest that human presence could be used as a strategic measure in guarding seabird colonies, and that a social-ecological systems perspective is vital for long-term success in protected area management.
