Temporal changes in forest contexts at multiple extents: Three decades of fragmentation in the Gran Chaco (1979-2010), Central Argentina
(Public Library of Science, 2015-12)
The context in which a forest exists strongly influences its function and sustainability. Unveiling the multi-scale nature of forest fragmentation context is crucial to understand how human activities affect the spatial ...
Metacommunity structuring in stream networks: roles of dispersal mode, distance type, and regional environmental context
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2013-11-01)
Within a metacommunity, both environmental and spatial processes regulate variation in local community structure. The strength of these processes may vary depending on species traits (e.g., dispersal mode) or the characteristics ...
How short-term variation influence the relative importance of environmental and spatial factors associated to anuran dissimilarity composition
(Universidade Federal de São CarlosUFSCarPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Ecologia e Recursos Naturais - PPGERNCâmpus São Carlos, 2018-08-10)
Understanding the processes that create the patterns of species composition and biodiversity variation across the space has been one of the main topics within the theory of metacommunities. However, most studies rely on ...

Natural and anthropogenic variations in atmospheric mercury deposition during the Holocene near Quelccaya Ice Cap, Peru
(American Geophysical Union, 2014)
Mercury (Hg) is a toxic metal that is transported globally through the atmosphere. Emissions of Hg from mineral reservoirs and recycling between soil/biomass, oceans, and the atmosphere are fundamental to the global Hg ...
Spatial and temporal forecasting of large earthquakes in a spring-block model of a fault
(Oxford University Press, 2013-10)
We study a recently proposed statistical physics model of earthquake dynamics that includes stress relaxation in the plates as a fundamental ingredient. The model is known to reproduce many realistic features of seismic ...
Land consumption and income in Ecuador: a case of an inverted environmental Kuznets curve
(2020)
The ratio of building permits to population is a key indicator to evaluate land consumption. However, few researchers focus on land consumption and its environmental spillovers, for developing countries. The aim of our ...
A comparative analysis reveals weak relationships between ecological factors and beta diversity of stream insect metacommunities at two spatial levels
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015-03-23)
The hypotheses that beta diversity should increase with decreasing latitude and increase with spatial extent of a region have rarely been tested based on a comparative analysis of multiple datasets, and no such study has ...
Bose systems in spatially random or time-varying potentials
(MAIK NAUKA/INTERPERIODICA/SPRINGER, 2009)
Bose systems, subject to the action of external random potentials, are considered. For describing the system properties, under the action of spatially random potentials of arbitrary strength, the stochastic mean-field ...
Human-Mediated Dispersal and the Rewiring of Spatial Networks
(Elsevier B.V., 2018-12-01)
Humans fundamentally affect dispersal, directly by transporting individuals and indirectly by altering landscapes and natural vectors. This human-mediated dispersal (HMD) modifies long-distance dispersal, changes dispersal ...
