Site-occupancy modelling: A new approach to assess sensitivity of indicator species
(Elsevier Science, 2017-08)
One of the most challenging aspects of quality indices has been to compile reliable measures of the species’ sensitivity to various magnitudes and different kinds of ecosystem attributes. Occupancy modelling has become ...
Advantages of combining generalized linear models and occupancy models to find indicators of habitat selection: Small mammals in agroecosystems as a case study
(Elsevier Science, 2018-05)
Models of habitat variables can be used to find indicators for a quantitative prediction of the likeliness of species occurrence or abundance. Methodological bias due to variable detectability can be critical to properly ...
Biodiversity loss in deforestation frontiers: Linking occupancy modelling and physiological stress indicators to understand local extinctions
(Elsevier, 2019-08)
Tropical deforestation is a main driver of the global biodiversity crisis. Impact assessments typically focus on species' presence, which means impacts are detected when local extinctions have occurred – and thus when it ...
Advocating better habitat use and selection models in bird ecology
(Sociedade Brasileira de Ornitologia, 2018-06)
Studies on habitat use and habitat selection represent a basic aspect of bird ecology, due to its importance in natural history, distribution, response to environmental changes, management and conservation. Basically, a ...
Transitions of lithium occupation in graphite: A physically informed model in the dilute lithium occupation limit supported by electrochemical and thermodynamic measurements
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-11)
Understanding the role of the phase transitions during lithiation and delithiation of graphite remains a problem of fundamental importance, but also practical relevance owing to its widespread use as the anode material in ...
Occupational Purposes model designed for workplace language training in Costa Rica
(Instituto Tecnológico de Costa Rica, 2013)
Occupancy and abundance of large macaws in the Beni savannahs, Bolivia
(Cambridge University Press, 2014-07)
Monitoring of wild populations is central to species conservation and can pose a number of challenges. To identify trends in populations of parrots, monitoring programmes that explicitly take detectability into account are ...
The landscape complexity relevance to farming effect assessment on small mammal occupancy in Argentinian farmlands
(Springer, 2019-11-05)
The responses of organisms to organic farming depend on the taxonomic group and landscape complexity. Following the intermediate landscape complexity hypothesis, organic farming can compensate for the lack of complexity ...
Using occupancy models to assess the direct and indirect impacts of agricultural expansion on species’ populations
(Springer, 2020-08)
Land-use change is a global threat to biodiversity, but how land-use change affects species beyond the direct effect of habitat loss remains poorly understood. We developed an approach to isolate and map the direct and ...
Habitat occupancy of the Dusky-legged Guan in the lower delta of the Paraná River, Argentina
(Cambridge University Press, 2013-03)
Summary The Dusky-legged Guan Penelope obscura is the southernmost species of the family Cracidae, reaching its southern distributional limit in the delta of the Paraná River. Habitat loss, together with uncontrolled ...
