Habitat heterogeneity and connectivity shape microbial communities in South American petlands
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016-05)
Bacteria play critical roles in peatland ecosystems. However, very little is known of how habitat heterogeneity affects the structure of the bacterial communities in these ecosystems. Here, we used amplicon sequencing of ...
Landscape connectivity explains interaction network patterns at multiple scales
(Ecological Society of America, 2019-08)
Under a metacommunity framework, the spatial configuration of habitat fragments could determine local community structure. Yet, quantifying fragment connectivity is challenging, as it depends on multiple variables at several ...
A year-long plant-pollinator network
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2006-12)
In this work we analyse the pollination community in a South American forest known as 'talar'. This is a vegetal woody community that inhabits fossil coastal banks characterized by seasonal temperate weather and calcareous ...
Microbial community composition and network analyses in arid soils of the Patagonian Monte under grazing disturbance reveal an important response of the community to soil particle size
(Elsevier Science, 2019-06)
The effects of livestock grazing on soil microbial communities are not fully understood in arid regions, where water limitations can have significant consequences on soil health and biological processes. Neither are ...
Phylogenetic tree shape and the structure of mutualistic networks
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2014-06)
Summary: Species community composition is known to alter the network of interactions between two trophic levels, potentially affecting its functioning (e.g. plant pollination success) and the stability of communities. ...
Identities in tension: Immigrant communities in Argentina and the challenge of the Great War
(Taylor & Francis, 2020-04)
This article aims to analyse the mobilisation of immigrant communities in Argentina during the Great War and to explore its impact on the definition of national identities. By their very nature, migrant communities are at ...
Making Connections for Our Changing Mountains: Future Directions for the Mountain Research Initiative (MRI)
(Mountain Research & Development, 2020-08)
The Mountain Research Initiative (MRI) promotes basic and applied research to understand how drivers and processes of global change present challenges and opportunities in mountain social-ecological systems. It convenes a ...
Seasonal and reproductive migrations in the Creole perch Percichthys trucha (Actinopterygii: Percichthydae) promote both intra-lake and inter-lake habitat connectivity
(Iranian Society of Ichthyology, 2019-09)
In this research work, biology of Creole perch, Percichthys trucha, the largest top predator in the North Patagonia’s freshwater communities, in a deep oligotrophic lake in the region, focusing on (i) the differential use ...
Distribution of parasites of slimy sculpin Cottus cognatus Richardson, 1836 (Scorpaeniformes: Cottidae) in the Athabasca drainage, Alberta, Canada, and their relation to water quality
(Springer, 2020-07)
The composition and diversity of parasite communities are useful tools to characterise ecosystem health and integrity.Environmental disturbances may affect parasite infection in fish directly, by their effects on the ...
Invasive ascidians: How predators reduce their dominance in artificial structures in cold temperate areas
(Elsevier Science, 2020-12)
Artificial structures can provide suitable space for invasive species through a colonisable surface and refuge against predators. Besides several physical factors, invasive species can present different colonization success ...
