Dealing with an indigenous despot - the Noisy Miner, a keystone species in the rural landscape of eastern Australia

本研究将确定可持续的手段，限制残余的原生和种植林地的统治由超侵略性的噪音矿工。该物种将食虫鸟类排除在剩余林地之外，导致澳大利亚南部农村桉树林地鸟类数量的减少。如果我们要实现真正可持续的农业生产，制止农业地区食虫鸟类数量的下降至关重要。这项研究将确定土地所有者可以操纵的栖息地特征，使残余和种植园不适合吵闹的矿工，同时加强其他受威胁鸟类的重建。

This study will identify sustainable means of limiting the domination of remnant native and planted woodland by the hyper-aggressive Noisy Miner. This species excludes insectivorous birds from remnant woodlands, contributing to the decline of birds in eucalypt woodlands in rural southern Australia. Halting the decline in insectivorous birds in our agricultural areas is critical if we are to ever achieve truly sustainable agricultural production. This study will identify habitat characteristics that can be manipulated by land holders to make remnants and plantations less suitable for Noisy Miners, while enhancing the re-establishment of other threatened birds.
