Fragmentation of Random Trees [PDF]
, 2014 We study fragmentation of a random recursive tree into a forest by repeated removal of nodes. The initial tree consists of N nodes and it is generated by sequential addition of nodes with each new node attaching to a randomly-selected existing node.

Parks, people and pixels: evaluating landscape effects of an East African national park on its surroundings [PDF]
, 2010 Landscapes surrounding protected areas, while still containing considerable biodiversity, have rapidly growing human populations and associated agricultural development in most of the developing world that tend to isolate them, potentially reducing their

Marked decline in forest-dependent small mammals following habitat loss and fragmentation in an Amazonian deforestation frontier [PDF]
, 2020 Agricultural frontier expansion into the Amazon over the last four decades has created million hectares of fragmented forests. While many species undergo local extinctions within remaining forest patches, this may be compensated by native species from ...

Brazil’s fragmented forests [PDF]
Current Biology, 2017 Summary One of the largest and longest-running biological experiments shows how habitat fragmentation damages the Amazonian forests. Meanwhile, recent political troubles in Brazil may open the path for more unbridled deforestation. Michael Gross reports.

Effects of local tree diversity on herbivore communities diminish with increasing forest fragmentation on the landscape scale. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Forest fragmentation and plant diversity have been shown to play a crucial role for herbivorous insects (herbivores, hereafter). In turn, herbivory-induced leaf area loss is known to have direct implications for plant growth and reproduction as well as ...

Perspectives in Ecology and Conservation, 2022 Protected areas can prevent forest loss, but their effects on forest fragmentation and forest regrowth are poorly understood. Furthermore, the importance of protected areas in shaping these forest spatial changes may depend on different socioeconomic ...

Effects of Pleistocene climate changes on species ranges and evolutionary processes in the Neotropical Atlantic Forest [PDF]
, 2016 The effects of global glaciations on the distribution of organisms is an essential element of many diversification models. However, the empirical evidence supporting this idea is mixed, in particular with respect to explaining tropical forest evolution ...
