Maintenance of biodiversity is fundamental to ecologically sustainable development. This project will deepen our understanding of the consequences of landscape change for native birds and enhance our national capacity to integrate nature conservation and agricultural production. We will contribute to sustainable use of rural landscapes by providing land managers with greater understanding of (1) how and why landscape change affects bird species diversity and persistence, (2) which components of the landscape can most effectively be manipulated to enhance population survival, and (3) estimating the long-term effects of habitat fragmentation on the population structure and function of species.

维持生物多样性是生态可持续发展的根本。该项目将加深我们对景观变化对本地鸟类影响的认识，并提高我们国家将自然保护与农业生产结合起来的能力。我们将通过帮助土地管理者更好地理解(1)景观变化如何以及为什么影响鸟类物种多样性和持久性，(2)景观的哪些组成部分可以最有效地进行操纵以提高种群生存，以及(3)估计栖息地破碎化对物种种群结构和功能的长期影响，为农村景观的可持续利用做出贡献。
