Multifaceted Assessment of Amazonian Tree Diversity Reveals Pervasive Impacts of Human Modification. [PDF]
Glob Chang BiolAmazonian forests impacted by humans have a reduced and different group of tree species than those forests that have never been impacted. The trees present in forests impacted by humans also have different evolutionary histories and functional characteristics.

Assessing the mechanisms and impacts of shrub invasion in forests: A meta‐analysis
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 60, Issue 11, Page 2314-2326, November 2023., 2023 Taken together, these results suggest that restoration efforts should focus on (i) increasing the presence of strong native competitors or functionally diverse native communities, (ii) decreasing sources of invasive shrub propagules while keeping the canopies closed when invasion occurs via high propagule pressure, (iii) avoiding management techniques ...

Nations and Nationalism, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 1125-1141, July 2023., 2023 Abstract East Timorese nationalism experienced a unique generational transition during Indonesia's occupation hinging onto internationalism in the changing world. In contrast to the existing literature on nationalism, which is overwhelmingly focused on earlier construction of nationalism and post‐independence nation building, this article offers a ...

Large‐scale impacts of selective logging on canopy tree beta‐diversity in the Brazilian Amazon
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 60, Issue 6, Page 1181-1193, June 2023., 2023 Minimal impacts on tree beta‐diversity across large spatial scales points towards the retention of substantial conservation value in logged tropical forests. Strong subtractive heterogenization in very large trees indicates the breakdown of broad scale patterns of composition with potential negative consequences for recruitment processes, fauna reliant

Seaward‐Dipping Reflector Influence on Seafloor Magnetostratigraphy—A Pelotas Basin View
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 49, Issue 23, 16 December 2022., 2022 Abstract Previous works used marine magnetic survey data and interpreted magnetic anomalies related to seaward‐dipping reflectors (SDRs) as oceanic crust or SDR age constraints in the South Atlantic Ocean. However, we advise against using SDR‐related magnetic anomalies to constrain ages because of the mostly low‐dipping geometry causing the overlapping

Tectonics, Volume 41, Issue 10, October 2022., 2022 Abstract We constrained the tectonic evolution of the intracratonic Cretaceous Rio do Peixe Basin (RPB) in NE Brazil, combining structural and Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility (AMS) data. We analyzed the structural features of four sites along two major faults bordering the basin, the NE‐striking Portalegre Fault and the E‐W‐striking Malta Fault ...

Is the search for cerebral palsy ‘cures’ a reasonable and appropriate goal in the 2020s?
Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, Volume 64, Issue 1, Page 49-55, January 2022., 2022 In the field of disability research and advocacy, the notion of ‘cures’ is contentious. Cerebral palsy (CP) is no exception. In this narrative review, we combine perspectives gained during community consultation undertaken for the Australian and New Zealand Cerebral Palsy Strategy, 2020 with those published in the scientific and grey literature to ...

A cost‐effective video system for a rapid appraisal of deep‐sea benthic habitats: The Azor drift‐cam
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 8, Page 1379-1388, August 2021., 2021 Abstract Deep‐sea exploration relies on cutting‐edge technology, which generally requires expensive instruments, highly specialized technicians and ship time. The increasing need to gather large‐scale data on the distribution and conservation status of deep‐sea benthic species and habitats could benefit from the availability of low‐cost imaging tools ...

Making Friends, Building Roads: Chinese Entrepreneurship and the Search for Reliability in Angola
American Anthropologist, Volume 123, Issue 2, Page 343-354, June 2021., 2021 ABSTRACT Based on fieldwork conducted in 2013–2014 with a provincial‐level Chinese state‐owned construction firm in Luanda, this article examines how Chinese businesses attempted to expand in the aftermath of a booming period of Angolan postwar reconstruction. Chinese entrepreneurs found that business could only be done with the help of local mediators
