Temporal stability in species richness but reordering in species abundances within avian assemblages of a tropical Andes conservation hot spot. [PDF]

open access: yesBiotropica, 2021
We evaluated the temporal variation in species richness and community composition of local bird assemblages over 11 years in Cajas National Park and Mazán Reserve in the Southern Andes of Ecuador. Species richness remained stabled over time, but we observed taxonomic reordering in the undisturbed native forest, in which the evenness in the distribution

Sensitivity of tropical montane birds to anthropogenic disturbance and management strategies for their conservation in agricultural landscapes

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 6, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Tropical montane bird communities are hypothesized to be highly sensitive to anthropogenic disturbance because species are adapted to a narrow range of environmental conditions and display high rates of endemism. We assessed avian sensitivity at regional and continental scales for a global epicenter of montane bird biodiversity, the tropical ...

Incorporating intraspecific variation into species responses reveals both their resilience and vulnerability to future climate change

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2023, Issue 11, November 2023., 2023
Incorporating intraspecific variation into species responses can improve our understanding of the effects of climate change. However, most studies overlook such variation or model intraspecific groups independently, leading to widely varying estimates at the species level.

Feather function and the evolution of birds

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 2, Page 540-566, April 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT The ability of feathers to perform many functions either simultaneously or at different times throughout the year or life of a bird is integral to the evolutionary history of birds. Many studies focus on single functions of feathers, but any given feather performs many functions over its lifetime. These functions necessarily interact with each
