Habitat fragmentation narrows the distribution of avian functional traits associated with seed dispersal in tropical forest
(2018-04-01)
Land-use change influences biodiversity in non-random ways, affecting some species and functional groups more than others, with potential implications for the loss or degradation of important ecological processes, such as ...
Effects of structural and functional connectivity and patch size on the abundance of seven Atlantic Forest bird species
(Elsevier Sci LtdOxfordInglaterra, 2005)
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 ...
The matrix-tolerance hypothesis: an empirical test with frogs in the Atlantic Forest
(SPRINGER, 2010)
The matrix-tolerance hypothesis suggests that the most abundant species in the inter-habitat matrix would be less vulnerable to their habitat fragmentation. This model was tested with leaf-litter frogs in the Atlantic ...
Critical patch size reduction by heterogeneous diffusion
(2020-10-29)
Population survival depends on a large set of factors and on how they are distributed in space. Due to landscape heterogeneity, species can occupy particular regions that provide the ideal scenario for development, working ...
Decomposing recruitment limitation for an avian-dispersed rain forest tree in an anciently fragmented landscape
(British Ecological Society, 2013)
1. Forest fragmentation may intensify recruitment limitation through impacts on seed production,
dissemination and seedling establishment processes. In an ancient mosaic of fog-dependent rain forest
patches on coastal ...
Vulnerability of small forest patches to fire in the Paraiba do Sul River Valley, southeast Brazil: Implications for restoration of the Atlantic Forest biome
(2020-06-01)
The Atlantic Forest biome, a biodiversity hotspot historically threatened by deforestation and human disturbance, has recently seen a net gain in native forest cover due to changes in land use, enactment of new laws, and ...
Competitive release and area effects
(Elsevier B.V., 2012-09-01)
A common situation observed in fragmented habitats is that species densities diminish within smaller fragments. Some species, however, do show an opposite tendency. We argue that release of competition between a strong ...
