Patterns of plastic ingestion in Kelp Gull (Larus dominicanus) populations breeding in northern Patagonia, Argentina
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020-07)
Human waste is a global concern, and volumes are growing rapidly. For opportunistic species, like many birds, urban waste offers alternative food which in turn may lead to plastic ingestion with potential negative effects. ...
Anthropogenic food subsidies hinder the ecological role of wolves: insights for conservation of apex predators in human-modified landscapes
(Elsevier B.V., 2020-03)
In ecologically pristine ecosystems, top-down effects of apex predators play a fundamental role in shaping trophic cascades and structuring ecosystems, but in human-modified landscapes anthropogenic effects may markedly ...
Latitudinal patterns in the diet of Andean condor (Vultur gryphus) in Chile: Contrasting environments influencing feeding behavior
(Elsevier, 2020)
Human-dominated environments alter the availability and quality of resources for many species, especially for scavengers that have large home ranges and plastic foraging behaviors that enable them to exploit novel resources. ...
Sweetened solution intake in albino rats: Taste versus calories [Consumo de soluciones endulzadas en ratas albinas: Sabor vs calorías]
(2013)
Ecosystems are fragmented by natural and anthropogenic processes that affect organism movement and ecosystem dynamics. When a fragmentation restricts predator but not prey movement, then the prey produced on one side of ...
Climate-driven terrestrial inputs in ultraoligotrophic mountain streams of Andean Patagonia revealed through chromophoric and fluorescent dissolved organic matter
(Elsevier Science, 2015-07-15)
Fluvial networks transport a substantial fraction of the terrestrial production, contributing to the global carbon cycle and being shaped by hydrologic, natural and anthropogenic factors. In this investigation, four Andean ...
Latitudinal patterns in the diet of Andean condor (Vultur gryphus) in Chile: Contrasting environments influencing feeding behavior
(Chile. Universidad Mayor, 2020)
Human-dominated environments alter the availability and quality of resources for many species, especially for scavengers that have large home ranges and plastic foraging behaviors that enable them to exploit novel resources. ...
Estudo temporal de alterações na cobertura vegetal de manguezais do estado de São Paulo
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), 2017-12-07)
Mangroves are coastal ecosystems that transition between terrestrial and marine environments, found in tropical and subtropical regions subject to tidal regimes. Mangroves have numerous ecological, economic and social ...
More massive but potentially less healthy: Black vultures feeding in rubbish dumps differed in clinical and biochemical parameters with wild feeding birds
(PeerJ Inc., 2018-04)
Background: Organic waste is one of the most important anthropogenic food subsidies used by different species. However, there is little information about the health impact that rubbish dumps produce on species foraging in ...
Trophic interactions between the kelp gull (Larus dominicanus) and royal and cayenne terns (thalasseus maximus maximus and thalasseus sandvicensis eurygnathus, respectively) in a human-modified environment
(National Research Council Canada-NRC Research Press, 2019-10)
Many closely related seabirds nest in mixed colonies, and this association may result in interspecific interactions such as competition for common resources and kleptoparasitism. Trophic interactions were evaluated between ...
