The species-fragmented area relationship
(National Academy Of Sciences, 2013-07)
The species–area relationship (SAR) gives a quantitative description of the increasing number of species in a community with increasing area of habitat. In conservation, SARs have been used to predict the number of extinctions ...
Morphological responses of three persistent native anuran species after forest conversion into monoculture pine plantations: tolerance or prosperity?
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-04)
Species loss by habitat replacement operating as an ecological filter is a well-known consequence of modern human activities. In contrast, the ecological and evolutionary response of species overcoming those filters in ...
Mechanisms affecting population density in fragmented habitat
(RESILIENCE ALLIANCE, 2005-06)
We conducted a factorial simulation experiment to analyze the relative importance of movement pattern, boundary-crossing probability, and mortality in habitat and matrix on population density, and its dependency on habitat ...
Mammal ecology in fragmented landscapes: beyond the effects of habitat amount
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), 2020-09-03)
A conversão de áreas naturais para uso antropogênico da terra causa perda, fragmentação e degradação de habitat, as quais são as principais ameaças para a conservação de mamíferos terrestres em todo o mundo. Nesta tese ...
Fire-induced forest transition to derived savannas: Cascading effects on ant communities
(Biological Conservation, 2018)
Mechanisms affecting population density in fragmented habitat
(RESILIENCE ALLIANCE, 2005)
We conducted a factorial simulation experiment to analyze the relative importance of movement pattern, boundary-crossing probability, and mortality in habitat and matrix on population density, and its dependency on habitat ...
Specific differences in habitat requirement drive responses to habitat loss and disturbance in Atlantic Forest small mammals
(Instituto de BiologiaPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Ecologia e Biomonitoramento (Pós-Ecologia)UFBABrasil, 2018-06-15)
As deforestation proceeds, habitat is lost in the landscape and the human-created matrix augments. Species that differ in their habitat requirements and tolerance to disturbance should not be equally affected
by habitat ...
Habitat use by carnivores at different spatial scales in a plantation forest landscape in Patagonia, Argentina
(Elsevier, 2012-04)
Forest plantations are an increasingly important source of industrial wood around the world, and the design and management of plantations can greatly influence the relationship with wildlife. The aim of this study was to ...
Phyllostomid bats of lowland Amazonia: Effects of habitat alteration on abundance
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2007-12)
Habitat fragmentation and conversion are among the human activities that pose the greatest threat to species persistence and conservation of biodiversity. This is particularly true in the Neotropics, where bats represent ...
