Joint species movement modeling: how do traits influence movements?
(2019-04-01)
Joint species distribution modeling has enabled researchers to move from species-level to community-level analyses, leading to statistically more efficient and ecologically more informative use of data. Here, we propose ...
Effects of agriculture and topography on tropical amphibian species and communities
(2018-09-01)
Habitat loss is the greatest threat to the persistence of forest-dependent amphibians, but it is not the only factor influencing species occurrences. The composition of the surrounding matrix, structure of stream networks, ...
Species co-occurrences in ectoparasite infracommunities: Accounting for confounding factors associated with space, time, and host community composition
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-10)
1. We explored patterns of co-occurrence of ectoparasite species on individual hosts from Central Europe (Slovakia) and South America (Argentina) within and between higher taxa while controlling for confounding factors ...
Joint species movement modeling: How do traits influence movements?
(Ecological Society of America, 2019-02)
Joint species distribution modeling has enabled researchers to move from species‐level to community‐level analyses, leading to statistically more efficient and ecologically more informative use of data. Here, we propose ...
Fragmented tropical forests lose mutualistic plant–animal interactions
(2020-02-01)
Aim: Forest fragmentation is among the principal causes of global biodiversity loss, yet how it affects mutualistic interactions between plants and animals at large spatial scale is poorly understood. In particular, tropical ...
Modelagem hierárquica Bayesiana de comunidades de anfíbios e de seu fungo patogênico (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis) em riachos da Mata Atlântica
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), 2018-07-20)
A Mata Atlântica brasileira se encontra altamente fragmentada e conta com menos de 15% da sua cobertura original, todavia, essas florestas ainda abrigam uma das maiores diversidades de anfíbios com alta proporção de espécies ...
Assessing global patterns in mammalian carnivore occupancy and richness by integrating local camera trap surveys
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2017-04)
Aim:Biodiversity loss is a major driver of ecosystem change, yet the ecological data required to detect and mitigate losses are often lacking. Recently, camera trap surveys have been suggested as a method for sampling local ...
A hierarchical multi-scale analysis of the spatial relationship between parasitism and host density in urban habitats
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2017-09)
Studies on spatial density dependence in parasitism have paid scarce attention to how changes in host density at different hierarchical scales could influence parasitism in an herbivore at a particular scale. Here, we ...
Landscape effects on crop pollination services: are there general patterns?
(2008)
Pollination by bees and other animals increases the size, quality, or stability of harvests for 70% of leading global crops. Because native species pollinate many of these crops effectively, conserving habitats for wild ...
The Ecological Basis for Biogeographic Classification: an Example in Orchid Bees (Apidae: Euglossini)
(ENTOMOLOGICAL SOC BRASILLONDRINA,, 2012)
Biogeography has been difficult to apply as a methodological approach because organismic biology is incomplete at levels where the process of formulating comparisons and analogies is complex. The study of insect biogeography ...
