Assessing spatial variability and efficacy of surrogate species at an ecosystem scale

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 5, October 2025.
Abstract Preserving biodiversity is a central goal of conservation, but, in practice, monitoring biodiversity often involves assessing population trends for one or a handful of species that are presumed proxies for biodiversity. Despite the popularity of surrogate species strategies, the links between biodiversity and surrogate species are rarely ...

Leaf Size and Shape Interact to Control Flammability: An Experiment With Artificial Leaves Cut From the Large‐Leaved Species Sapranthus palanga

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 57, Issue 5, September 2025.
We evaluated the flammability of leaves based on their shape and size. Rectangular and triangular shapes showed high flammability that did not vary with size, while circular shapes had minimal flammability, but it varied with size. These findings indicate that leaf shape and size impact flammability.

Impacts of fire on canopy structure and its resilience depend on successional stage in Amazonian secondary forests

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 394-410, August 2025.
We analyzed the effects of fire on secondary forests' vertical structure in different successional stages using lidar metrics. Our results show that independently of the successional stage, secondary forests that experienced fire were more degraded than unburned secondary forest areas. Overall, our results show that forests in early successional stage (
