Environmental structure affects taxonomic diversity but not functional structure of understory birds in the southwestern Brazilian Amazon [PDF]

open access: yesActa Amazonica, 2019
Changes in environmental characteristics can affect habitat use by birds, impacting the number of individuals, number of species, and changing species composition and functional structure of assemblages.

Animal Forest Mortality: Following the Consequences of a Gorgonian Coral Loss on a Mediterranean Coralligenous Assemblage

open access: yesDiversity, 2021
In this work, the consequences of a local gorgonian coral mortality on the whole coralligenous assemblage were studied. A Before/After-Control/Impact sampling design was used: the structure of the coralligenous assemblage was compared before and after ...

Variation in patterns of fish assemblage and their environmental correlates in a tropical river basin from the Gulf of Mexico slope [PDF]

open access: yesNeotropical Ichthyology, 2023
Understanding patterns of freshwater fish assemblage structure is key to protect them from ongoing human-induced threats to aquatic biodiversity. Yet, studies on associations between fish assemblages and habitat are lacking from many areas of high ...

Spatiotemporal variations of the ichthyofaunal structure accompanying the seabob shrimp, Xiphopenaeus kroyeri (Crustacea: Penaeidae), fishery in important fishery areas of the Santa Catarina shore, Brazil

open access: yesZoologia (Curitiba), 2011
The present study analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively the temporal and spatial changes in the fish assemblages present in seabob shrimp distribution sites in two important fishing areas of the Santa Catarina coast.

Drivers of phylogenetic structure in Amazonian freshwater fish assemblages [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, 2021
ABSTRACTAimCommunity phylogenetics provides important information about the evolutionary and ecological factors help structure regional species assemblages. Here, we analyze phylogenetic diversity (phylodiversity) patterns among fish species in 97 sub-drainages of the Amazon basin, to evaluate the roles of historical and contemporary processes in ...

Cross-Shelf Variation Among Juvenile and Adult Coral Assemblages on Australia’s Great Barrier Reef

open access: yesDiversity, 2019
Coral reefs are under increasing pressure from a variety of stressors, highlighting the need for information about the status of coral reef communities including the distribution, abundance and composition of juvenile and adult coral assemblages.

Loss-tolerant EPR steering for arbitrary dimensional states: joint measurability and unbounded violations under losses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We show how to construct loss-tolerant linear steering inequalities using a generic set of von Neumann measurements that are violated by $d$-dimensional states, and that rely only upon a simple property of the set of measurements used (the maximal ...

Marinas as habitats for nearshore fish assemblages: comparative analysis of underwater visual census, baited cameras and fish traps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Understanding the ecological role that artificial structures might play on nearshore fish assemblages requires the collection of accurate and reliable data through efficient sampling techniques.

Comparing lacustrine environments: the importance of the kind of habitat on the structure of fishes

open access: yesActa Limnologica Brasiliensia, 2018
Aim Fish diversity in two lentic environments: a lake connected (Barbosa lake) to a river and an artificial reservoir (Ninfeias reservoir) were determined in the dry and rainy periods in 2015. We expected to find more diversity in the connected lake and
