Using occupancy models to assess the direct and indirect impacts of agricultural expansion on species’ populations
(Springer, 2020-08)
Land-use change is a global threat to biodiversity, but how land-use change affects species beyond the direct effect of habitat loss remains poorly understood. We developed an approach to isolate and map the direct and ...
Biodiversity loss in deforestation frontiers: Linking occupancy modelling and physiological stress indicators to understand local extinctions
(Elsevier, 2019-08)
Tropical deforestation is a main driver of the global biodiversity crisis. Impact assessments typically focus on species' presence, which means impacts are detected when local extinctions have occurred – and thus when it ...
National parks influence habitat use of lowland tapirs in adjacent private lands in the Southern Yungas of Argentina
(Cambridge University Press, 2020-04)
Protected areas are cornerstones of conservation efforts worldwide. However, protected areas do not act in isolation because they are connected with surrounding, unprotected lands. Few studies have evaluated the effects ...
Un lugar donde vivir: reflexiones sobre las ocupaciones de tierra en la Córdoba contemporáneaA place to live: An Insight into Land Occupation in Contemporary Córdoba
(Universidad Nacional de Tierra del Fuego. Instituto de Cultura, Sociedad y Estado, 2021-07)
La lucha por el acceso, distribución y uso de la tierra se ha configurado como un eje históricamente conflictivo en América Latina. Así, las ocupaciones de tierra han sido una constante en la historia de nuestras sociedades. ...
Legalidades alternativas y tomas de tierras en una ciudad de la Patagonia ArgentinaAlternative legalities and land occupations in a city of Patagonia Argentina
(Universidad Católica del Norte, 2018-12)
Resultado de un trabajo etnográfico sobre ocupaciones de tierras en Comodoro Rivadavia (Chubut, Argentina), el artículo discute con las interpretaciones que reducen un fenómeno social complejo a una visión de las tomas ...
The landscape complexity relevance to farming effect assessment on small mammal occupancy in Argentinian farmlands
(Springer, 2019-11-05)
The responses of organisms to organic farming depend on the taxonomic group and landscape complexity. Following the intermediate landscape complexity hypothesis, organic farming can compensate for the lack of complexity ...
Tensiones por usos y necesidades diferenciadas en el periurbano de La Plata: producir o vivirLand Occupations in the Peri-urban of La Plata: Between the need to produce and the need to live
(Universidad Nacional de La Plata. Facultad de Arquitectura y Urbanismo, 2018-07)
La ocupación del periurbano de las ciudades es epicentro de conflictos derivados de usos diferenciados del territorio. En el caso de La Plata, los dos principales usos son el residencial (principalmente informales) y el ...
Trade-offs between biodiversity and agriculture are moving targets in dynamic landscapes
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-07-21)
1. Understanding how biodiversity responds to intensifying agriculture is critical to mitigating the trade-offs between them. These trade-offs are particularly strong in tropical and subtropical deforestation frontiers, ...
How do habitat amount and habitat fragmentation drive time-delayed responses of biodiversity to land-use change?
(The Royal Society, 2021-01)
Land-use change is a root cause of the extinction crisis, but links between habitat change and biodiversity loss are not fully understood. While there is evidence that habitat loss is an important extinction driver, the ...
Migrantes y militantes: experiencias de mujeres en procesos de ocupaciones de tierras en la Argentina de los años ochentaMigrants and militants: experiences of women in land occupancy processes in the Argentina of the eighty years
(Universidad Industrial de Santander, 2019-06-28)
El artículo se propone realizar una aproximación a las trayectorias de mujeres migrantes que participaron en procesos de ocupaciones de tierras urbanas durante los años ochenta en la zona sur del Gran Buenos Aires, Argentina. ...
