Jaguar Densities and Land Cover Change in a Multi‐Use Landscape: A 10‐Year Comparison in the Colombian Llanos 美洲豹种群密度与复合用地景观下的土地覆被变化:哥伦比亚亚诺斯地区10年比较研究

open access: yesWildlife Letters, EarlyView.
We used spatially explicit capture‐recapture to estimate jaguar densities in a private reserve in the Colombian Llanos and quantified land cover change in and around the reserve from 2014 to 2024. Densities increased 22% since 2014, while disturbed land cover increased by 39%–54% around the reserve depending on buffer distance. Our study indicates that

Anthropogenic nitrogen addition interrupts seasonal connectivity and structures of plant–pollinator networks

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1878-1891, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecological communities are stressed by rapid and complex anthropogenic changes, threatening the persistence of biotic interactions and ecosystem functioning. Plant–pollinator communities, for instance, undergo structural transformations as a result of land‐use change ...
