Does Climate Change Affect the Potential Distribution of House Sparrows (Passer domesticus) ?

Öz

Determining the results of climatic effects and fragmentation on habitats is very important. Global climate change is a threat to wildlife species, which can lead to changes in habitats and the distribution of species. Estimating the correct distribution of species and their habitats is essential for the sustainability and management of species under climate change. House Sparrow (Passer domesticus) is a common bird species belonging to the Passeridae family. This species has a wide range around the World and has been closely associated with humans for most of its existence. In this study, we used the Maximum entropy (Maxent) model to predict the potential suitable habitats for House Sparrow (Passer domesticus) under future climatic scenarios (2021-2040, 2041-2060 and 2061-2080) for Türkiye.

İklim Değişikliği Ev Serçesinin (Passer domesticus) Potansiyel Dağılımını Değiştirmekte midir?

Öz

İklimsel etkilerin ve parçalanmanın habitatlar üzerindeki etkilerini belirlemek önem arz etmektedir. Küresel iklim değişikliği, habitatlarda ve türlerin dağılımında değişikliklere yol açabilen ve yaban hayatı türleri için tehdit oluşturan bir unsurdur. Türlerin ve yaşadıkları habitatların doğru dağılımını tahmin etmek, türlerin iklim değişikliği altında sürdürülebilirliği ve yönetimi için esastır. Ev serçesi (Passer domesticus), Passeridae familyasına ait yaygın bir kuş türüdür. Bu tür, Dünya çapında geniş bir alana yayılmış olup varlığının çoğu dönemi boyunca insanlarla yakın ilişki içinde olmuştur. Bu çalışmada, Türkiye için gelecekteki iklim senaryoları (2021-2040, 2041-2060 ve 2061-2080) altında Ev Serçesi türü (Passer domesticus) için potansiyel uygun habitatları tahmin etmek için Maksimum Entropi (Maxent) modelini kullanılmıştır.
