Arid island environments harbour a unique biota characterised to have adaptive features that enable them thrive in such harsh habitats. However, our understanding of how anthropogenic climate change compromises the biodiversity and sustainability these ecosystems is greatly unknown. Here we used fine-grained field data evaluate effects extreme weather on population size, distribution, habitat preferences an endemic bird species inhabiting arid Atlantic island, across two temporal windows spanning approximately 20 years (2005-2024). Population size declined sharply (63 %-70 %) between periods, according distance-based sampling design suitability modelling approach, with number individuals estimated 2024 being 4650 (CI 95 %: 3600-5950) 4150 3600-4800) respectively. The density this was reduced by three times compared previous study period. results revealed larger area (246 km
