Predator response to the coloured eyespots and defensive posture of Colombian four‐eyed frogs

Journal of Evolutionary Biology, Volume 36, Issue 7, Page 1040-1049, July 2023., 2023
Using stationary artificial frogs exposed to wild predators, we tested whether the eyespot/colour markings and defensive posture present in the putative deimatic display of Colombian four‐eyed frogs, and their combination, provide protection from predation without a sudden change in appearance.

Roadkill patterns in Latin American birds and mammals

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 31, Issue 9, Page 1756-1783, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim Roads are a major threat for wildlife, degrading habitat and causing mortality via wildlife–vehicle collisions. In Latin America, the conjunction of high biodiversity and a rapidly expanding road network is reason for concern. We introduce an approach that combines species traits and habitat preferences to describe vulnerability and map ...

Integrating the Water Planetary Boundary With Water Management From Local to Global Scales

Earth's Future, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2020., 2020
Abstract The planetary boundaries framework defines the “safe operating space for humanity” represented by nine global processes that can destabilize the Earth System if perturbed. The water planetary boundary attempts to provide a global limit to anthropogenic water cycle modifications, but it has been challenging to translate and apply it to the ...
