Effects of forest fragmentation on the weight of understory birds at the Biological Dynamics of Forest Fragments Project in Amazonia

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 54, Issue 4, Page 852-859, July 2022., 2022
Deforestation and habitat fragmentation are known as the chief drivers of biodiversity loss. Habitat fragmentation in the Brazilian Amazon was found to affect the weight of birds that remained in isolated areas. Our results provide a novel analysis into how avian body mass responds to habitat fragmentation.

Global maps of soil temperature

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 28, Issue 9, Page 3110-3144, May 2022., 2022
We provide global maps of soil temperature at a 1 km2 resolution, based on a global database of more than 8500 in situ soil temperature time series. We show that over the year, soils in cold and/or dry biomes are on average 3.6°C warmer, whereas soils in warm and humid environments are 0.7°C cooler than gridded air temperature.

Causes and consequences of liana infestation in southern Amazonia

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 108, Issue 6, Page 2184-2197, November 2020., 2020
Lianas are a pervasive and influential feature of the extensive forests at the southern edge of Amazonia. Our long‐term research here shows that liana infestation is closely linked to tree properties, including species‐level variables such as potential growth and wood density as well as the dimensions of individual trees. The growth of heavily infested

A Fragmentation study of di-acidic mycosporine-like amino acids in electrospray and nanospray mass spectrometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Two mycosporine (MAAs), containing an extra acid function, were analyzed by nanospray and electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. In contrast to the previous studies it is demonstrated that no significant characteristic methyl radical loss ...

Seeing the woods through the saplings: Using wood density to assess the recovery of human‐modified Amazonian forests

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 106, Issue 6, Page 2190-2203, November 2018., 2018
Plant communities in human‐modified Amazonian forests appear to not be recovering a key functional property—wood density, which in turn may affect their ability to store carbon in the future. If the aim of conservation programs in tropical forests is to maintain existing rates of ecosystem functions, processes and services, then they must concentrate ...

Habitat Amount Shapes Ant Diversity in the Central Amazon

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.
Ant diversity in fragmented Amazonian forest landscapes is primarily driven by landscape‐scale habitat amount rather than fragment size, supporting the Habitat Amount Hypothesis (HAH) over Island Biogeography Theory (IBT). Consequently, conservation strategies should prioritize maintaining and restoring forest cover across human‐modified landscapes ...
