The importance of artificial wetlands for waterbird conservation can be easily overestimated from count data alone. The value of extensive fish ponds as a breeding habitat depends on maintaining the availability of natural marshes as a foraging habitat. This requires reducing impacts from groundwater extraction. Given recent abandonment of aquaculture,

ABSTRACT Plant‐hummingbird interaction networks can be influenced by environmental conditions and resources, which vary seasonally and daily. We aimed to understand how variations in these parameters across these two temporal windows influence patterns of plant‐hummingbird interactions and hummingbirds dominance hierarchies in a Brazilian Cerrado ...

Summary Drying and drought in tropical forests, which have some of the highest net primary productivity on Earth, are likely to alter root dynamics, ecosystem function, and carbon (C) storage. We used a chronic drying experiment in four lowland Panamanian forests to investigate whether soil drying shifts tropical forest root production from surface to ...
