Grazing-induced losses of biodiversity affect the transpiration of an arid ecosystem
(Springer, 2011-06)
Degradation processes often lead to species loss.Such losses would impact on ecosystem functioning depending on the extinction order and the functional and structural aspects of species. For the Patagonian arid steppe,we ...
Vinculando a etnoictiologia às evidências biológicas para explicar o declínio da riqueza da ictiofauna neotropical
(Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do NorteBRUFRNPrograma Regional de Pós-Graduação em Desenvolvimento e Meio Ambiente PRODEMAMeio Ambiente, Cultura e Desenvolvimento, 2014-01-31)
The diversity of fish species from South America has been affected by various anthropogenic practices. Some studies have reported the influence that illegal transferring or introduction of exotic species have on the trophic ...
Climate and land-use change will lead to a faunal “savannization” on tropical rainforests
(2020-12-01)
Humans have fragmented, reduced or altered the biodiversity in tropical forests around the world. Climate and land-use change act synergistically, increasing drought and fire frequencies, converting several tropical ...
Something is lost and something is gained: loss and replacement of species and functional groups in ant communities at fragmented forests
(Springer, 2018-12)
Small fragments of natural habitats with an increased proportion of edges are common landscape traits following agricultural expansion. Consequences of habitat fragmentation are widely documented. However, functional and ...
Short-term effects of habitat fragmentation on the abundance and species richness of beetles in experimental alfalfa micro-landscapes
(Sociedad de Biología de Chile, 2004)
Habitat fragmentation and species loss across three interacting trophic levels: effects of life-history and food-web traits
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2009)
Unidirectional transitions in nectar gain and loss suggest food deception is a stable evolutionary strategy in Epidendrum (Orchidaceae): insights from anatomical and molecular evidence
(Bmc, 2018-09-04)
Background: Nectar gain and loss are important flower transitions observed in angiosperms, and are particularly common in orchids. To understand such transitions, the availability of detailed anatomical data and species-level ...
Evaporative water loss and oxygen uptake in two casque-headed tree frogs, Aparasphenodon brunoi and Corythomantis greeningi (Anura, Hylidae)
(Elsevier B.V., 1997-11-01)
Evaporative water loss (EWL) and oxygen uptake ((V) over dot o(2)) was measured in two species of tree frogs with cranial co-ossification, Aparasphenodon brunoi and Corythomantis greeningi. Both species use their head to ...

Water economy of three Cinclodes (Furnariidae) species inhabiting marine and freshwater ecosystems
(SOCIEDAD BIOLOGIA CHILE, 2004-06)
Birds living in desert environments have been the preferred models for the study of physiological adaptations to water scarcity. Passerine birds living in marine coastal habitats face similar problems, yet physiological ...
