Modeling the spatial distribution and fruiting pattern of a key tree species in a neotropical forest: methodology and potential applications. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 The movement patterns of wild animals depend crucially on the spatial and temporal availability of resources in their habitat. To date, most attempts to model this relationship were forced to rely on simplified assumptions about the spatiotemporal ...

Compositional Acclimation Can Lessen Tropical Forest Change in Response to Increasing Lightning Frequency: Insights From Simulation Modeling. [PDF]
Glob Chang BiolLightning is a major agent of forest tree mortality. In this study, we investigated how changes in lightning frequency affect forest biomass. Our approach was to implement lightning into a forest dynamics model. The probability of lightning‐induced mortality varied by species according to field observations.

Recruitment limitation in three large‐seeded plant species in a tropical moist forest
Biotropica, Volume 54, Issue 2, Page 418-430, March 2022., 2022 Recruitment limitation results from three mechanisms: (i) lack of seed sources (i.e., source limitation), (ii) failure of available seeds to reach recruitment sites (i.e., dispersal limitation), and (iii) failure of arrived seeds to establish at a location (i.e., establishment limitation).

Arboreal monkeys facilitate foraging of terrestrial frugivores
Biotropica, Volume 53, Issue 6, Page 1685-1697, November 2021., 2021 We investigated eavesdropping and interspecific interactions in Neotropical mammals in a feeding context using playback experiments, monitoring of fruiting trees with camera traps combined with GPS data and randomised movement tracks. We found that interspecific attractions at food resources were not random and that some species were more likely to ...
