A multi‐network approach to assess how physical templates shape stream fish ecological strategies

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
This multi‐network framework identifies a continuous topological gradient of fish ecological strategies—comprising Dispersal Gateways, Integrated Connectors, and Mass Effect Dominated species—within the dendritic river template. The functional role of stream reaches is scale‐sensitive, particularly at headwater extremes where sites operate as critical ...

Cooperative human signals to honeyguides form local dialects

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 682-694, March 2026.
Abstract Human language enables the exchange of complex information and precise instructions for collaborative planning and action. It rapidly evolves through social learning, generating diverse cultural communication signals used not only with other humans, but also with domesticated animals bred or trained to respond.

Análise espacial de indicadores intra-urbanos.

open access: yesRevista Tecnologia, 2009
A análise espacial de indicadores intra-urbanos surge como ferramenta de apoio ao planejamento urbano e à elaboração de políticas públicas, capaz de identifi car áreas que necessitam de um tratamento diferenciado e orientar possíveis intervenções urbanas.

How Management Practices Shape the “Local Habitat Signature” That Modulates Bird Communities in Urban Green Spaces

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.
Local scale factors, not just the broad urban gradient, are the key drivers of urban bird communities. Our multi‐scale study found that specific management practices, such as managing leaf litter depth or the presence of unmanaged tall grass, explained the largest portion of variation in bird composition.

Mapping priority areas to mitigate the risk of electrocution of range‐restricted bird species

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 10, Page 2787-2799, October 2025.
Our study proposes a framework to identify areas with higher electrocution risk, which can be used even in data‐scarce regions or adapted to a multi‐species assessment context. This approach can support proactive strategies for energy companies with an initial assessment identifying areas to avoid installing new power lines, evaluating sites for ...

Monitoring population extinction risk with community science data

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 9, Page 2133-2147, September 2025.
Our modelling framework provides a robust, computationally efficient and easy‐to‐apply tool for monitoring local persistence probability that can support global conservation efforts. This will complement the monitoring of species population viability in places where standardized monitoring is still lacking, but community science observations are common.

LandFrag: A Dataset to Investigate the Effects of Forest Loss and Fragmentation on Biodiversity

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 34, Issue 2, February 2025.
ABSTRACT Motivation The accelerated and widespread conversion of once continuous ecosystems into fragmented landscapes has driven ecological research to understand the response of biodiversity to local (fragment size) and landscape (forest cover and fragmentation) changes.

Effects of an Extreme Weather Event on Primate Populations

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 186, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT Objectives With contemporary, human‐induced climate change at a crisis point, extreme weather events (e.g., cyclones, heatwaves, floods) are becoming more frequent, intense, and difficult to predict. These events can wreak rapid and significant changes on ecosystems; thus, it is imperative to understand how wildlife communities respond to ...
