Domesticated landscapes in araucaria forests, southern Brazil: A multispecies local conservation-by-use system
(Frontiers Media SA, 2018-02-07)
Araucaria forest is a sub-tropical component of the Atlantic Forest Biome, occurring between 18 and 30° S latitude, and 500-1,800 m altitude in Southern and Southwestern Brazil and Northwestern Argentina. In recent history ...
Fleas of mammals and patterns of distributional congruence in northwestern Argentina: A preliminary biogeographic analysis
(Elsevier, 2020-09)
In few groups of parasites have the patterns of distribution been studied using quantitative methods, even though, the study of these organisms indirectly provides information on the biogeographic history of their hosts, ...
Phenotypic evolution of an Atlantic Forest passerine (Xiphorhynchus fuscus): biogeographic and systematic implications
(Oxford University Press, 2014-11)
We studied the phenotypic variation of the Atlantic Forest passerine Xiphorhynchus fuscus (Aves: Dendrocolaptidae) with the broad aim of addressing whether the history and type of forest affected the evolution of endemic ...
De enemigo vencido a tesoro cercado : un estudio etnohistórico sobre el ambiente en la producción forestal del Alto Paraná de Misiones (Arg.)
(Universidad Nacional de Misiones. Facultad de Humanidades y Ciencias Sociales. Secretaría de Investigación y Postgrado. Programa de Postgrado de Antropología Social, 2012-06-01)
Se presenta una etnohistoria ambiental de la producción forestal en el bosque atlántico altoparanaense de Misiones (Argentina), entre 1874 y 2010. Para ello se utiliza el enfoque de la historia ambiental que se propone ...
Strong spatial structure, Pliocene diversification and cryptic diversity in the Neotropical dry forest spider Sicarius cariri
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2014-11)
The Brazilian Caatinga is part of the seasonally dry tropical forests, a vegetation type disjunctly distributed throughout the Neotropics. It has been suggested that during Pleistocene glacial periods, these dry forests ...
Clinal variation along precipitation gradients in Patagonian temperate forests: unravelling demographic and selection signatures in three Nothofagus spp.
(Springer Nature, 2020-01-10)
Past demographic changes and current selection pressures determine the genetic variation displayed by Nothofagus species along rainfall gradients. Based on the diversity trends observed at candidate genes associated to ...
Quantifying the relative importance of direct and indirect effects influencing bird nestling growth
(John Wiley & Sons Inc., 2021-04)
Nestling growth parameters are integral components of avian life-history strategies as they are crucial determinants of individual survival. Although many factors impact on nestling growth, the relative contribution of ...
Linking ecosystem resistance, resilience, and stability in steppes of North Patagonia
(Elsevier, 2013-01)
The main objective of an ecosystem sustainable management is to preserve its capacity to respond and adapt to current disturbances and/or future changes, and maintain the provision of environmental goods and services. Two ...
Plant size dependent response of native tree regeneration to landscape and stand variables in loblolly pine plantations in the Atlantic Forest, Argentina
(2018)
The interest in the conservation of biodiversity in productive ecosystems has increased considerably in recent years due to the continuing loss of natural vegetation. The effect of forest plantations on biodiversity is ...
Anuran community of a coastal Atlantic Forest fragment in the state of Rio de Janeiro, southeastern Brazil
(Deutsche Gesellschaft für Herpetologie und Terrarienkunde, 2014-04)
We conducted an anuran survey in a forest fragment of approximately 800 ha situated in the municipalities of Maricá, Saquarema, and Tanguá (22°52’ S; 42°40’ W; 20–450 m a.s.l., SAD69), in Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil, ...
