Prioritizing global tall forests toward the 30 × 30 goals
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 6, December 2023., 2023 Abstract The Global Deal for Nature sets an ambitious goal to protect 30% of Earth's land and ocean by 2030. The 30 × 30 initiative is a way to allocate conservation resources and extend protection to conserve vulnerable and underprotected ecosystems while reducing carbon emissions to combat climate change.

Forest disturbance and recovery in Peruvian Amazonia
Global Change Biology, Volume 29, Issue 13, Page 3601-3621, July 2023., 2023 This study used Landsat time series in combination with data from 1840 National Forest Inventory plots in Peruvian Amazonia to determine the impact of disturbance, environmental conditions and human use on forests' biomass and tree diversity. We found that the intensity of forest disturbance had a negative effect on the recovery of aboveground biomass ...

Hummingbird diversity in a fragmented tropical landscape in the Chocó biogeographic zone
Biotropica, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 418-429, March 2023., 2023 We investigated habitat‐ and site‐level patterns of diversity, and community composition of hummingbirds between continuous forest (transects n = 16 in ~3500 ha) and more disturbed surrounding fragments (n = 39, 2.5–48.0 ha) in the Chocó rainforest of northwestern Ecuador. We found higher hummingbird species richness in forest fragments relative to the

Global effects of forest modification on herpetofauna communities
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 1, February 2023., 2023 Abstract As the area covered by human‐modified environments grows, it is increasingly important to understand the responses of communities to the novel habitats created, especially for sensitive and threatened taxa. We aimed to improve understanding of the major evolutionary and ecological processes that shape the assemblage of amphibian and reptile ...

Global Change Biology, Volume 28, Issue 21, Page 6318-6332, November 2022., 2022 In the Mediterranean region, island ecosystem dynamics have been influenced by millennia of anthropogenic impacts. Here, we analysed the spatio‐temporal dynamics of vegetation in sa Dragonera, where herbivory by goats, over‐logging and rat occurrence ended in the last decades.

Riparian reserves protect butterfly communities in selectively logged tropical forest
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 59, Issue 6, Page 1524-1535, June 2022., 2022 Mandatory conservation set‐asides around streams or rivers (riparian buffers) have an important role in protecting the abundance and composition of primary forest butterfly assemblages within selective logging concessions in tropical rainforests. This study highlights the need to assess the conservation value of protecting unlogged riparian forest ...
