Species–fragmented area relationship
(Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), 2013-07-30)
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 ...

Effects of habitat degradation on the abundance, richness and diversity of raptors across Neotropical biomes
(Elsevier, 2009-10)
Population growth and human development result in biodiversity loss and biological homogenization not only in developed countries, but increasingly in the less developed countries as well. In those countries, where ...
Effects of habitat loss, habitat fragmentation, and isolation on the density, species richness, and distribution of ladybeetles in manipulated alfalfa landscapes
(BLACKWELL, 2006-12)
1. Habitat loss and fragmentation are the main causes of changes in the distribution and abundance of organisms, and are usually considered to negatively affect the abundance and species richness of organisms in a landscape. ...
Meta-analysis of anthropogenic habitat disturbance effects on animal-mediated seed dispersal
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2015)
Anthropogenic habitat disturbance is a strong biodiversity change driver that compromises not only
the species persistence but also the ecological interactions in which they are involved. Even though
seed dispersal is a ...
Land use intensification differentially benefits alien over native predators in agricultural landscape mosaics
(2013)
Aim: Both anthropogenic habitat disturbance and the breadth of habitat use by alien species have been found to facilitate invasion into novel environments, and these factors have been hypothesized to be important within ...
Avian assemblages in bamboo and non-bamboo habitats in a tropical rainforest
(2013-02-28)
Some species of bird are closely associated with bamboos (bamboo specialists) but community-wide studies comparing the avian assemblages in bamboo and non-bamboo habitats are lacking. Using point counts, we compared the ...

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 ...
