Briefings

Researchers document how diverse bird species in Chile's Río Cruces Wetland carry biocultural memory of the territory. Resident and migratory birds witness landscape changes over time, linking avian presence to historical and ecological shifts.

Key points

• Black-necked swans, spot-flanked gallinules, southern lapwings, and austral thrushes fly across the Río Cruces Wetland carrying biocultural memory of the territory.
• Both resident birds and migratory species bear witness to landscape changes over time, linking avian presence to historical and ecological shifts.

Context

Birds in Chile's Río Cruces Wetland serve as living archives of territory history, with diverse species migrating and settling to observe landscape transformations.

Limitations

Evidence is limited to observed bird species and their presence; specific dates of migration or landscape change measurements are not provided.
