Influence of Burn Severity on Avifaunal Communities in Southern Tropical Dry Deciduous Forest, Western Ghats. [PDF]
Ecol EvolEffects of burn severity [pyrodiversity] on avian community were studied in a tropical deciduous forest of Western Ghats. Bird community composition varied significantly across burn severity classes and the pyrodiversity‐biodiversity hypothesis was supported. Functional guilds showed contrasting patterns in the postfire environment.

Resilience of floral scent emission after florivory. [PDF]
Plant Biol (Stuttg)Florivory is thought to affect floral traits, impacting pollination. However, our data suggest a stability in post‐florivory scent emission, which may guarantee the maintenance of pollinator visitation regardless of florivory, indicating a resilience of natural systems with multiple and simultaneous interactions. Created in BioRender. Tunes, P.

Uncovering correlates of decline and critical refuges for a threatened terrestrial mammal. [PDF]
Conserv BiolAbstract Globally, the geographic ranges of numerous species are contracting. Identifying spatiotemporal patterns of threat impact can illuminate why species decline in some parts of their range but persist in others. We developed a correlative approach to identify species’ response thresholds and locate ecological refuge areas associated with ...
