Utilizing satellite telemetry data from Eleonora’s falcons that originate from 5 breeding areas (from the Canary islands to Cyprus) and examining different climate change scenarios, the LIFE ElClimA team in collaboration with 14 researchers from reputed institutions produced a species-wide habitat suitability map at Eleonora’s falcon main wintering area, Madagascar, under current and future environmental conditions. ​Unveiling new challenges for the species, the results of the study are expected to contribute to the conservation of the Eleonora’s falcon in the light of climate change.
