Climate variation impact on birds of lebanon-assessment and identification of main measures to help the birds to adapt to change

Abstract EN

The main aim of this study is to assist the national research community in its work of collecting, analyzing, evaluating and synthesizing information relevant to national and international impact of climate variation on the avifauna.

The paper discusses the ornithological changes that are most probably caused by increased mean of temperature through the study of the birds of Lebanon during the period 1994-2010.

Another aspect of this paper is providing birds of Lebanon with outlines of main adaptation measures, and policy makers with indicators of how climate variation affects some components of the Lebanese environment.
