Abstract Insectivorous, Afro‐Palearctic migrant birds provide cross‐border ecosystem services, but many are declining rapidly. The complex life cycle of migrant birds makes their conservation difficult, but understanding where they spend time during the breeding season can help indicate where those actions will be most effective.

Use of community characteristics to predict hunting and game harvests in western Amazonian forests
Abstract Wild game harvesting in Amazonia provides rural residents with protein and cash income but can threaten wildlife populations and forest ecosystem functions. As yet, the socioeconomic and environmental drivers that shape hunter livelihoods remain poorly understood.

Hurricanes create major disturbances to stream ecosystems by producing large floods and removing riparian vegetation. Understanding their impacts is a priority, as hurricane intensity will increase with global climate change. Hurricane disturbance shifts mayfly assemblages from dominance by Leptophlebiidae before to Baetidae after.

Cattle and nurse trees shape subtropical forest–grassland ecotones
Tree cover can potentially expand on the subtropical South American grasslands. Reductions in cattle densities and increases in rainfall levels associated with climate change could facilitate forest expansion in this region. Abstract South American subtropical landscapes are dominated by open grasslands and mosaics of forest–grassland formations ...
