Abstract:

The analyses were carried out for the Märkisch-Oderland-district (660 km2) in East Germany (near Oder river) where the density of breeding pairs reached 4 per 100 km2. The landscape structure was investigated within a 1 km radius of nesting locations ("breeding sites") and randomly selected points in the villages without stork nests ("control sites"). The landscape structure (habitat proportions, Shannon's diversity index H', density of edges, etc.) was measured by evaluating aerial photographs (1:10000). The land-use of "breeding sites" was characterised by a higher proportion of grasslands and inshore waters as well as by a significantly higher value of H'- 1.37 compared to 0.95 for "control sites". Storks clearly preferred more differentiated landscapes - 80% of "breeding sites" were localised in very high diversity classes (0.81-1.7), while 80% of "control sites" were in much lower diversity classes (0.21-0.8). Also grasslands were found to have a strong influence - storks preferred more grasslands in landscape. In addition, White Storks most frequently built up their nests in the moderately fragmented areas.
