Are all edges equal? Microclimatic conditions, geographical orientation and biological implications in a fragmented forest
(Elsevier Science, 2019-04)
In fragmented forests the edges experience changes in microclimatic conditions, which are referred to as “abiotic edge effect”, and differ according to geographical orientation and season. These microclimatic changes could ...
Anthropogenic edges, isolation and the flowering time and fruit set of Anadenanthera peregrina, a cerrado savanna tree
(Springer, 2014-05-01)
Fragmentation exposes plants to extreme environmental conditions with implications for species phenology and reproduction. We investigated whether isolation and edge effects influence size, flowering time, fruit set, and ...
Natural vegetation cover in the landscape and edge effects: Differential responses of insect orders in a fragmented forest
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2016-09-20)
Human activities have led to global simplification of ecosystems, among which Neotropical dry forests are some of the most threatened. Habitat loss as well as edge effects may affect insect communities. Here, we analyzed ...
Earthworm assemblages in an ecotone between forest and arable field and their relations with soil properties.
(Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, v. 44, n. 8, p. 922-926, ago. 2009., 2014)
Are leaf-litter frogs and lizards affected by edge effects due to forest fragmentation in Brazilian Atlantic forest?
(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS, 2008)
Effects of forest fragmentation, anthropogenic edges and fruit colour on the consumption of ornithocoric fruits
(Elsevier B.V., 2003-06-01)
We investigated effects of fruit colour (red, black or white), habitat (anthropogenic edges and forest interior) and fragment size on the removal of artificial fruits in semideciduous forests in south-east Brazil. Eight ...
Edge and herbivory effects on leaf litter decomposability in a subtropical dry forest
(Springer Tokyo, 2017-02)
It is increasingly recognized that understanding the functional consequences of landscape change requires knowledge of aboveground and belowground processes and their interactions. For this reason, we provide novel information ...
