Abstract Drift experiments are essential to understand stranding patterns and estimate the mortality of beached animals. Most studies do not use telemetry technology due to the high costs of this methodology. The objective of this paper is to describe the possibilities of tracking marine tetrapod carcasses with a low‐cost and replicable methodology ...

The proportion of large gaps in the forest canopy varied substantially over the Brazilian Amazon. We have shown that the trends can be explained by geographical variation in disturbance and growth. The frequency of extreme weather events is predicted to increase under climate change, and changes could lead to greater forest disturbance, which should be

Phylogenetic distance controls plant growth during early restoration of a semi‐arid riparian forest
Increased phylogenetic diversity but not species richness promoted plant growth during the restoration of a semi‐arid riparian forest in NE Brazil. Such an effect was mediated by the proximity of the plants with the watercourse, indicating the importance of differences in resource use among plants.

Roadkill patterns in Latin American birds and mammals
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 ...

We identify the areas of Europe and North Africa that are most sensitive for the specific populations of birds for which sufficient GPS tracking data at high spatial resolution were available. We also map vulnerability hotspots where mitigation at existing EI should be prioritised to reduce collision risks.

Evidence for seasonal cycles in deep‐sea fish abundances: A great migration in the deep SE Atlantic?
The authors demonstrate a significant correlation between epipelagic primary production and deep‐sea fish abundances at 1,500 m from 2010 to 2016 on the Angola margin. These findings highlight the importance of upper‐ocean processes to deep‐sea ecosystem functioning, and their potential vulnerability to future change.
