Influence of landfill use on nest‐site selection and breeding success in white storks

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, Volume 321, Issue 3, Page 175-187, November 2023., 2023
Breeding near landfills may determine habitat preference and selection in white storks, however breeding success depends on habitat quality in the surrounding area more than the distance to the landfill. Abstract Landscape transformation by humans through habitat degradation, agriculture intensification and urbanization results in the loss of natural ...

Combining otolith chemistry and genetics to infer the population structure of yellow snapper Lutjanus argentiventris

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Developing a metapopulation framework contributes to the understanding of spatial processes and structures in populations, providing basic information for conservation biology. However, the extent to which the metapopulation structure differs geographically and across life history stages is unexplored for most fishes.

Rpadrino: An R package to access and use PADRINO, an open access database of Integral Projection Models

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 9, Page 1923-1929, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Discrete time structured population projection models are an important tool for studying population dynamics. Within this field, integral projection models (IPMs) have become a popular method for studying populations structured by continuously distributed traits (e.g. height, weight).

Using historical spy satellite photographs and recent remote sensing data to identify high‐conservation‐value forests

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 2, April 2022., 2022
Abstract High‐conservation‐value forests (HCVFs) are critically important for biodiversity and ecosystem service provisioning, but they face many threats. Where systematic HCVF inventories are missing, such as in parts of Eastern Europe, these forests remain largely unacknowledged and therefore often unprotected.

Automated detection of frog calls and choruses by pulse repetition rate

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 5, Page 1659-1668, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Anurans (frogs and toads) are among the most globally threatened taxonomic groups. Successful conservation of anurans will rely on improved data on the status and changes in local populations, particularly for rare and threatened species.

Scaling up private land conservation to meet recovery goals for grassland birds

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 5, Page 1564-1574, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Long‐term population declines have elevated recovery of grassland avifauna to among the highest conservation priorities in North America. Because most of the Great Plains is privately owned, recovery of grassland bird populations depends on voluntary conservation with strong partnerships between private landowners and resource professionals ...

Capacidad de investigación en obesidad infantil en Latinoamérica y en las poblaciones latinas de Estados Unidos: estado de la investigación, problemas, oportunidades y líneas de trabajo para el futuro

open access: yesObesity Reviews, Volume 22, Issue S5, Octubre 2021., 2021
Resumen La obesidad infantil es un problema grave en Latinoamérica y entre la población latina de EE. UU. Para ser eficaces, las políticas de salud pública tienen que estar guiadas por evidencias contextuales pertinentes, lo cual exige una capacidad de investigación sostenida a través del tiempo.

La migración como determinante de la obesidad infantil en Estados Unidos y Latinoamérica

open access: yesObesity Reviews, Volume 22, Issue S5, Octubre 2021., 2021
Resumen La migración internacional tiene consecuencias económicas y en la salud. El proceso de aculturación en el país de acogida puede estar relacionado con la obesidad infantil. Utilizamos el marco conceptual del balance energético comunitario (CEB, por sus siglas en inglés) para analizar la relación entre migración y obesidad infantil en los hogares

Evaluación morfométrica y genética de la estructura poblacional de Cynoscion guatucupa de la costa de Buenos Aires en el Mar Argentino [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This study analyzed the morphometric, microsatellite loci and mitochondrial control region variation of the striped weakfish from two feeding and spawning grounds in the coastal area of Buenos Aires province. The characterization of the body shape proved

Fine-scale population structure and asymmetrical dispersal in an obligate salt-marsh passerine, the Saltmarsh Sparrow (Ammodramus Caudacutus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Understanding the spatial scale of gene flow can yield valuable insight into the ecology of an organism and guide conservation strategies. Fine-scale genetic structure is uncommon in migratory passerines because of their high vagility and presumed high ...
