An experimental assessment of landscape configuration effects on frog and toad abundance and diversity in tropical agro-savannah landscapes of southeastern Brazil
(Springer, 2012-01-01)
Amphibians are an imperiled group of vertebrate animals that typically have biphasic life histories involving a shift from aquatic larval habitats to terrestrial adult habitats. Habitat loss is the greatest threat to ...
How deforestation pattern in the Amazon influences vertebrate richness and community composition
(SPRINGERDORDRECHT, 2012)
The effects of habitat configuration on species persistence are predicted to be most apparent when remaining habitat cover is below 30%. We tested this prediction by comparing vertebrate communities in 21 landscapes located ...

Urbanization filters coccinellids composition and functional trait distributions in greenspaces across greater Santiago, Chile
(Elsevier GmbH, 2019)
Urbanization alters community composition, frequently leading to decline in native species abundance and richness. Nevertheless, responses might also depend on trait-based local habitat and landscape-scale filters. In this ...
Changes in agriculture-biodiversity trade-offs in relation to landscape context in the Argentine Chaco
(Springer, 2021-03)
Better balancing agricultural production and biodiversity conservation is a central goal formany landscapes. Yet, empirical work on how to best achieve such a balance has focused mainly on the local scale, thereby disregarding ...
Social valuation of Mediterranean cultural landscapes: Exploring landscape preferences and ecosystem services perceptions through a visual approach
(MDPI, 2020)
Mediterranean cultural landscapes have been recognized as multifunctional landscapes that are currently threatened by two opposing trends: rural abandonment and agricultural intensification. Uncovering people's perceptions ...
Spatial heterogeneity and habitat configuration overcome habitat composition influences on alpha and beta mammal diversity
(2020-01-01)
The effects of habitat fragmentation on different taxa and ecosystems are subject to intense debate, and disentangling them is of utmost importance to support conservation and management strategies. We evaluated the ...
