Habitat loss and disturbance from industrial resource development may be contributing to declines in boreal bird populations. In this study, modelling methods were used to assess 10-year (2011–2020) demographic trends and responses of multiple species to energy sector disturbance (human footprint proportion) in the Athabasca oil sands region of Alberta, Canada.
