Temporal dynamics in functional fruit traits of native and invasive fleshy fruited plants in subtropical Andean forests

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Fruits encompass the energetic and material flow between both interacting parties in frugivore‐mediated seed dispersal. Since fruit traits matter in frugivores' foraging decisions, the temporal dynamics of fruit traits might influence interaction outcomes.

As above, so below: A perspective into the application of land‐forest monitoring methods for the assessment of marine animal forests

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Marine animal forests (MAFs) are benthic ecosystems dominated by vertically structuring filter‐ and suspension‐feeders. As terrestrial forests, they are considered biodiversity hotspots, forming canopies, serving as a refuge, nursery, reproduction and feeding shelters for many species.

Marxismo, autopropiedad y abundancia

Crítica (México D. F. En línea), 2013
G.A. Cohen y John Rawls atribuyen a Karl Marx haberse adherido al principio libertarista de autopropiedad y una plena confianza en la abundancia ilimitada como solución a los defectos distributivos del socialismo. Asimismo, consideran que el comunismo marxiano está, en cierto sentido, más allá de la justicia.

estar: An R package to measure ecological stability

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Assessing ecological stability is a key task in biodiversity monitoring and conservation. Quantifying stability is not trivial because its different aspects can be measured with various properties. However, to date, no software enables measuring different stability properties on ecological time‐series data.

Entre el paraíso de la abundancia y el infierno del hambre: mitos y realidades

Cuadernos de Historia Moderna, 2015
Entre los sueños y la realidad, la tierra de Jauja, como Cucaña, era un país mágico insistentemente imaginado y buscado durante la Edad Moderna. En esta tierra fantástica no era necesario trabajar y el alimento era abundante.

Stable Isotope Analysis as a Tool to Prevent Illicit Wildlife Trade of Songbirds in Brazil

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Feather isotopes provide clear differences between wild and captive songbirds in Brazil. Combining multiple isotopes improved classification accuracy and revealed individuals falsely declared as captive‐bred. These results demonstrate the potential of isotope analysis to detect wildlife laundering in the bird trade.

Composition and vertical distribution of metazoan meiofauna assemblages on the continental shelf off central Chile

Latin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2015
A quantitative study of metazoan meiofauna was carried out in Valparaiso Bay (33°S 71°W) which is affected by seasonal hypoxia in central Chile. The contents of bottom water, dissolved oxygen (BWDO), organic carbon, chloroplast pigments and composition ...

Effects of landscape context on avian specialist response to increased surface temperature in protected areas

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Human development is a driver of global change and a major threat to biodiversity. Protected areas maintain and support biodiversity, but outside stressors, such as climate change and land use change, can negatively influence natural resources within protected areas.

Riesgos de la abundancia de liquidez

Revista del Instituto de investigación de la Facultad de minas, metalurgia y ciencias geográficas, 2023
El país ha sido impactado históricamente por alteraciones en la dinámica regular del clima ante variaciones de la temperatura, una de cuyas formas inmanentes es la excesiva liquidez hídrica, como término derivado del origen etimológico de lo líquido (estado físico del agua) y la importancia de su magnitud.

How much sampling is enough? Four decades of understorey bird mist‐netting across Amazonia define the minimum effort to uncover species assemblage structure

Ibis, EarlyView.
Mist‐net sampling comprises a key methodological component of assemblage‐wide avifaunal studies, particularly in the understorey of closed‐canopy tropical forests. To investigate mist‐net bird captures and species assemblage structure, we compiled data from 312 sites across the Pan‐Amazon.
