Roadkill patterns in Latin American birds and mammals

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 31, Issue 9, Page 1756-1783, September 2022., 2022
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 ...

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.

TRY plant trait database – enhanced coverage and open access

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 26, Issue 1, Page 119-188, January 2020., 2020
Plant traits—the morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological characteristics of plants—determine how plants respond to environmental factors, affect other trophic levels, and influence ecosystem properties and their benefits and detriments to people.

Linking Soil Hydrology and Creep: A Northern Andes Case

open access: yesGeosciences, 2020
Soil creep is common along the hillslopes of the tropical Andes of Colombia, where very heterogeneous soils develop on old debris flow deposits and are subjected to abundant rainfall with a bimodal annual regime.
