Exploring metapopulation‐scale suppression alternatives for a global invader in a river network experiencing climate change

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 1, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Invasive species can dramatically alter ecosystems, but eradication is difficult, and suppression is expensive once they are established. Uncertainties in the potential for expansion and impacts by an invader can lead to delayed and inadequate suppression, allowing for establishment.

Defensa comunitaria y culturas del terror: Crimen organizado y violencia de Estado en comunidades originarias de Guerrero, México

open access: yesThe Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 564-574, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Rich in raw materials, the state of Guerrero, Mexico, is one of the main enclaves of opium production, mineral extraction, and a focus for the multiplication of armed actors in Latin America, which, together with the overlapping of counterinsurgent violence in the past, post‐colonial violence and the militarization of the policies of the so ...

Forest loss and treeless matrices cause the functional impoverishment of sapling communities in old‐growth forest patches across tropical regions

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 59, Issue 7, Page 1897-1910, July 2022., 2022
In agreement with the LMFTS hypothesis, our results confirm that landscape modifications in regions undergoing high and long‐lasting deforestation greatly impoverish the functional composition and diversity of sapling communities. The shift from communities composed mainly by conservative attributes towards communities with a higher prevalence of ...

A new method for broad‐scale modeling and projection of plant assemblages under climatic, biotic, and environmental cofiltering

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 2, April 2022., 2022
Abstract There is increasing interestin broad‐scale analysis, modeling, and prediction of the distribution and composition of plant species assemblages under climatic, environmental, and biotic change, particularly for conservation purposes. We devised a method to reliably predict the impact of climate change on large assemblages of plant communities ...

Patch characteristics and domestic dogs differentially affect carnivore space use in fragmented landscapes in southern Chile

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 27, Issue 11, Page 2190-2203, November 2021., 2021
Abstract Aim In an increasingly anthropogenic world, species face multiple interacting threats. Habitat fragmentation and domestic dogs are two perturbations threatening terrestrial mammals globally. Our aim was to determine whether (a) the spatial use of domestic dogs increases with habitat destruction, and (b) domestic dogs and habitat destruction ...

Cuerpos de cobre: Extractivismo en Chuquicamata, Chile

open access: yesThe Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology, Volume 26, Issue 2, Page 200-218, June 2021., 2021
Resumen ¿Qué extraen y qué producen los extractivismos? El presente artículo intenta responder a esta pregunta analizando críticamente, la relación entre cuerpos, trabajo y mi‐nería principalmente bajo el modelo neoliberal chileno, en la mina estatal de cobre a tajo abierto más grande del planeta: Chuquicamata.

Life history induces markedly divergent insect responses to habitat loss

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 1, Page 54-64, January 2026.
This study pioneers the use of deep learning to rapidly assess over 22,000 Amazonian insects, revealing life history‐dependent winners and losers from forest loss. It shows that terrestrial insects decline while aquatic insects thrive, with body size influencing dispersal, offering key insights for biodiversity conservation in tropical fragmented ...

Urbanization of seed dispersal networks

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Rapid urban expansion is affecting the composition of wild communities and creating novel ecosystems worldwide. Seed dispersal is key for ecosystem persistence, particularly in fragmented landscapes. However, generalizations regarding the impacts of urbanization are still difficult due to the lack of studies encompassing the urban matrix.

Limited evidence of biodiversity spillover from forest fragments into oil palm plantations in the Amazon

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 8, Page 1939-1952, August 2025.
Converting primary forest into oil palm plantations results in substantial biodiversity losses, highlighting the urgent need to preserve the few remaining large forest fragments in the area. Measures that enhance matrix permeability are essential to conserving the evolutionary and functional integrity of Amazonian landscapes and mitigating the negative
