Forest conversion into pasture selects dung beetle traits at different biological scales depending on species pool composition

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2023., 2023
Briefly, we assess the impacts of forest conversion on the functional diversity of dung beetles in two different regions of Brazil, considering in particular intraspecific variation. To do this we conducted standardized surveys in seven forest fragments and adjacent pastures for every region and measured fourteen traits in individuals collected in each

Variable relationships between trait diversity and avian ecological functions in agroecosystems

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 87-98, January 2023., 2023
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The diversity of traits within animal assemblages has been shown to affect the magnitude of animal‐provided ecological functions. However, little is known about how consistent trait diversity effects are across ecological functions and ecosystems.

Forest loss and treeless matrices cause the functional impoverishment of sapling communities in old‐growth forest patches across tropical regions

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 59, Issue 7, Page 1897-1910, July 2022., 2022
In agreement with the LMFTS hypothesis, our results confirm that landscape modifications in regions undergoing high and long‐lasting deforestation greatly impoverish the functional composition and diversity of sapling communities. The shift from communities composed mainly by conservative attributes towards communities with a higher prevalence of ...

Functional diversity of macroinvertebrates as a tool to evaluate wetland restoration

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 58, Issue 12, Page 2999-3011, December 2021., 2021
Considering different aspects of functional diversity of invertebrate communities can help elucidate the processes and mechanisms through which ecosystems recover following restoration. We encourage the use of trait‐based approaches to identify trends in processes and patterns that can guide future wetland restoration projects.

Why forest fails to recover after repeated wildfires in Amazonian floodplains? Experimental evidence on tree recruitment limitation

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 109, Issue 10, Page 3473-3486, October 2021., 2021
Our experimental evidence suggests that soil nutrient limitations may slow down forest recovery after repeated wildfires in Amazonian floodplains. Yet, because floodplain trees are able to germinate from seeds and establish successfully in twice burnt forests, seed limitation seems to be the reason why forest recovery fails persistently. Seeding native

UNA FUNCIÓN VENTANA PARA EL ANÁLISIS ESPECTRAL OBTENIDA DE LOS POLINOMIOS CONCENTRADOS DOBLEMENTE ORTOGONALES

open access: yesIngeniería, 2011
Se propone una función ventana obtenida a partir de los polinomios concentrados doblemente ortogonales. Esta función ventana se escoge de las funciones a la ecuación matricial de autovalores que define a tales polinomios.

Vellozioid roots allow for habitat specialization among rock‐ and soil‐dwelling Velloziaceae in campos rupestres

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 2, Page 442-457, February 2020., 2020
A free Plain Language Summary can be found within the Supporting Information of this article. Abstract Plant growth on harsh substrates (habitat specialization) requires specific traits to cope with stressful conditions. We tested whether traits related to nutrient acquisition (root colonization by fungal symbionts, and plant morphological and ...
