Climate Change-Driven Extreme Heat Causes Significant Bird Population Decline in Tropical Regions
A study of 3000 bird populations (1950-2020) revealed a 25-38% decline in tropical regions (21°N/S) primarily due to extreme heat intensified by climate change since 1980, exceeding the impact of heavy rainfall and comparable to habitat loss.
