Demographic buffering in natural populations: A multi‐level perspective
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 8, Page 1298-1310, August 2026.We introduce a multi‐level framework that unites stochastic elasticities with nonlinear selection to test demographic buffering. Applying it across mammals reveals a key insight: ecological robustness to variability often decouples from evolutionary constraint, reshaping how we understand resilience under environmental stochasticity.

Understanding mammal avoidance of human settlements
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 8, Page 1504-1517, August 2026.Terrestrial mammals often avoid human settlements, but is this a result of human activity around buildings or the built infrastructure per se? Using data on animal movement before and during the COVID‐19 lockdowns, this paper disentangles these effects, showing how changes in human mobility affect animals' avoidance of buildings. Abstract Anthropogenic

Uncovering correlates of decline and critical refuges for a threatened terrestrial mammal
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.Abstract 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 ...

Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2012 Los cuerpos de agua superficial (CAS) permanentes o efímeros (pozas, tinajas, escurrimientos, etc.) que se encuentran en depresiones del terreno, como arroyos y cañadas, son soporte fundamental para el ecosistema en zonas áridas.

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.Abstract Despite the crucial role of human impacts on biodiversity loss, many assessments of this loss focus on single metrics, such as species richness, and overlook the multidimensional effects of human activities. Because of its importance to ecosystem functioning, we investigated the functional diversity of medium‐ and large‐sized mammal ...

Geographic risks to functional groups of mammals and birds from habitat loss in Mexico
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.Abstract There is a need to quantify the impact of habitat loss due to anthropogenic factors on different aspects of biodiversity, such as functional trait diversity represented by functional groups (FGs). We developed a metric to assess the weighted risk of loss of habitat for 33 FGs of mammals and 36 FGs of birds in Mexico based on potential ...

Propriedades funcionais de hemoglobina e sangue completo em um mamífero aquático, o peixe-boi amazônico (Trichechus inunguis) [PDF]
Acta Amazonica, 1978 Resumo O hematócrito (43%) e a capacidade de ligação de O (18,8 ml O2 100 ml. sangue) de Trichechus inunguis são baixos ao serem comparados com outros mamíferos mergulhadores, mas são similares aos de mamíferos terrestres.
