Trait‐based species selection for restoration: A case study from tropical landscapes dominated by bracken

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
Our results can be used by stakeholders to select the species best suited for active restoration projects in bracken‐dominated areas throughout the tropical region. Furthermore, our trait‐based approach, which considers seedling performance in disturbed areas, can serve as a guide for species selection in restoration programmes in other disturbed ...

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

Biotropica, 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.

Diversity modulates above‐ground productivity in response to disturbances: The case of Iberian forests

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 12, Page 3605-3621, December 2025.
We analysed whether forest productivity responses to disturbances were modulated by structural and functional diversity, as well as by functional dominance, and whether these responses vary among functional groups. Forest diversity can mitigate the negative effects of disturbances on productivity.

Estimación de la distribución espacial de los bosques perturbados en Chiapas, México, usando datos satelitales e información auxiliar

Botanical Sciences
Background: Maps of disturbed forests help to identify impacts on biodiversity and ecosystem services. Methods using only spectral data to detect disturbance at the regional level have limitations, but expert knowledge and fragmentation analysis can improve estimation.

Assessing disturbances in surviving primary forests of Europe

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Primary forests are of paramount importance for biodiversity conservation and the provision of ecosystem services. In Europe, these forests are scarce and threatened by human activities. However, a comprehensive assessment of the magnitude of disturbances in these forests is lacking, due in part to their incomplete mapping.

Urbanization drives partner switching and loss of mutualism in an ant–plant symbiosis

Ecology, Volume 105, Issue 11, November 2024.
Abstract Mutualistic interactions between species underpin biodiversity and ecosystem function, but may be lost when partners respond differently to abiotic conditions. Except for a few prominent examples, effects of global anthropogenic change on mutualisms are poorly understood.

ESTUDIO DE LA DIVERSIDAD DE SERPIENTES EN ÁREAS DE BOSQUE PERTURBADO Y PASTIZAL EN SAN VICENTE DEL CAGUÁN (CAQUETÁ), COLOMBIA

Actualidades Biológicas, 2013
Los bosques del municipio de San Vicente del Caguán (Caquetá), Colombia, han sido rápidamente degradados y convertidos en áreas de pastizal en las últimas décadas, causando la pérdida de biodiversidad, aislamiento de poblaciones y en el peor de los casos

Avian phylogenetic and functional diversity are better conserved by land‐sparing than land‐sharing farming in lowland tropical forests

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 61, Issue 10, Page 2497-2509, October 2024.
To minimise the loss of avian phylogenetic diversity and functional traits from farming in the Amazon, it is imperative to protect large blocks of undisturbed and regenerating forests. The intensification required within existing farmlands to make space for spared lands while meeting agricultural demand needs to be sustainable, avoiding long‐term ...
