Individual, sexual and temporal variation in the winter home range sizes of GPS-tagged Eurasian Curlews Numenius arquata (2022)
Journal Article
Mander, L., Nicholson, I., Green, R. M., Dodd, S. G., Forster, R. M., & Burton, N. H. (2022). Individual, sexual and temporal variation in the winter home range sizes of GPS-tagged Eurasian Curlews Numenius arquata. Bird Study, 69(1-2), 39-52. https://doi.org/10.1080/00063657.2022.2144129

Capsule: Eurasian Curlews Numenius arquata were faithful to foraging and roosting areas on their coastal wintering grounds, including a habitat creation site. Home range sizes were greater at night than during the day, and showed high inter-individua...

Long-Term Changes in the Abundance of Benthic Foraging Birds in a Restored Wetland (2021)
Journal Article
Mander, L., Scapin, L., Thaxter, C. B., Forster, R. M., & Burton, N. H. (2021). Long-Term Changes in the Abundance of Benthic Foraging Birds in a Restored Wetland. Frontiers in ecology and evolution, 9, Article 673148. https://doi.org/10.3389/fevo.2021.673148

Estuaries have historically been subject to considerable habitat loss, and continue to be subjected to such in areas where the natural landward migration of intertidal habitats is constrained by hard coastal defences. Thus, in estuaries where direct... Read More about Long-Term Changes in the Abundance of Benthic Foraging Birds in a Restored Wetland.

The matrix revisited: a bird's-eye view of marine ecosystem service provision (2016)
Journal Article
Burdon, D., Potts, T., Barbone, C., & Mander, L. (2017). The matrix revisited: a bird's-eye view of marine ecosystem service provision. Marine Policy, 77, 78-89. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpol.2016.12.015

The marine environment provides a range of ecosystem services and benefits for society. A previous study in Marine Policy (Potts et al., 2014) advocated a matrix approach to demonstrate the relative degree of ecosystem service provision from habitats...

Ecoengineering with Ecohydrology: Successes and failures in estuarine restoration (2016)
Journal Article
Elliott, M., Mander, L., Mazik, K., Simenstad, C., Valesini, F., Whitfield, A., & Wolanski, E. (2016). Ecoengineering with Ecohydrology: Successes and failures in estuarine restoration. Estuarine, coastal and shelf science, 176(5), 12-35. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecss.2016.04.003

© 2016 Elsevier Ltd. Ecological Engineering (or Ecoengineering) is increasingly used in estuaries to re-create and restore ecosystems degraded by human activities, including reduced water flow or land poldered for agricultural use. Here we focus on e... Read More about Ecoengineering with Ecohydrology: Successes and failures in estuarine restoration.

The value of wader foraging behaviour study to assess the success of restored intertidal areas (2013)
Journal Article
Mander, L., Marie-Orleach, L., & Elliott, M. (2013). The value of wader foraging behaviour study to assess the success of restored intertidal areas. Estuarine, coastal and shelf science, 131, 1-5. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecss.2013.07.010

The loss of intertidal habitat in estuaries has resulted in the need to create new habitats in order to protect waterbird populations. In order to examine the waterbird colonisation of restored intertidal areas created in 2003 through the realignment...

Managed realignment as compensation for the loss of intertidal mudflat: A short term solution to a long term problem? (2010)
Journal Article
Mazik, K., Musk, W., Dawes, O., Solyanko, K., Brown, S., Mander, L., & Elliott, M. (2010). Managed realignment as compensation for the loss of intertidal mudflat: A short term solution to a long term problem?. Estuarine, coastal and shelf science, 90(1), 11-20. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecss.2010.07.009

Intertidal mudflats are critical to the functional ecology of estuaries yet large areas are being lost as a result of land claim, erosion and coastal squeeze. This study examines whether managed realignment (at Paull Holme Strays, Humber estuary) can...

Coastal and offshore wind energy generation: is it environmentally benign? (2010)
Journal Article
Wilson, J. C., Elliott, M., Cutts, N. D., Mander, L., Mendão, V., Perez-Dominguez, R., & Phelps, A. (2010). Coastal and offshore wind energy generation: is it environmentally benign?. Energies, 3(7), 1383-1422. https://doi.org/10.3390/en3071383

Offshore and coastal wind power is one of the fastest growing industries in many areas, especially those with shallow coastal regions due to the preferable generation conditions available in the regions. As with any expanding industry, there are conc... Read More about Coastal and offshore wind energy generation: is it environmentally benign?.
