Scientists have shown where bird species would exist in the absence of human activity under research that could provide a new approach to setting conservation priorities.
A study by Durham University, UK, in collaboration with the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB), investigated how human activities such as agriculture, deforestation, and the drainage of wetlands have shaped where bird species are found in Great Britain today.
Researchers used data on the geographical distributions of bird species alongside simulation models to predict where bird species would exist today if the effects of human activities on the landscape were removed.

A road bike frame is essentially three big tubes stuck together in a triangle, four thinner ones to support the rear wheel and a fork to hold the front wheel and allow it to turn.

But it’s a lot more subtle than that, with the lengths, angles and shapes of the tubes making a huge difference to how the bike rides, its aerodynamics and what it’s useful for. Those measurements add up to the bike’s geometry and can be tweaked by the designer to define the ride characteristics and fit of a road bike.
