Ecosphere, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Hurricanes cause dramatic changes to forests by opening the canopy and depositing debris onto the forest floor. How invasive rodent populations respond to hurricanes is not well understood, but shifts in rodent abundance and foraging may result from scarce fruit and seed resources that follow hurricanes.

The effect of flight efficiency on gap‐crossing ability in Amazonian forest birds
Biotropica, Volume 54, Issue 4, Page 860-868, July 2022., 2022 We determined the role of flight efficiency on the likelihood of crossing a road that bisected an Amazonian forest. We found that flight efficiency was a strong predictor of road‐crossing probability: species with high hand‐wing indices (more elongated wings) crossed the road more frequently than those with low hand‐wing indices.

Socio‐ecological lessons from the multiple landfalls of Hurricane Georges
Ecosphere, Volume 12, Issue 2, February 2021., 2021 Abstract Over the course of 16 d in the fall of 1998, Hurricane Georges made landfall on five Caribbean Island nations, two U.S. states, and two territories. Along its path, it impacted nearly every type of built environment and terrestrial and marine ecosystem found in the Caribbean and the southeastern United States.

Impacts of a drought and hurricane on tropical bird and frog distributions
Ecosphere, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2021., 2021 Abstract During the last few decades, much attention has focused on how global change is affecting the environment and species distributions. Land‐use change is still the major cause of species declines worldwide, but changes in species distributions have been documented even in pristine and protected areas.
