Making vertebrate fossil radiocarbon dates more useful for global scientific research
Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 1309-1335, November 2025.ABSTRACT Radiocarbon dating of bones is essential for reconstructing timelines of species' occurrences, domestication, extinction, migrations, and interactions with Quaternary environments. Many studies compile these chronologies at continental to global scales by aggregating radiocarbon dates from various sources, often balancing data quantity and ...

Effects of Landscape Characteristics on Abundance of Giant Anteaters in Intensively Farmed Areas
Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 6, November 2025.In this study, we analyzed the abundance of giant anteaters in 55 landscapes within a 34,000 km2 region that has undergone significant transformation due to intensive agricultural practices, particularly the cultivation of sugarcane. In each landscape, we used three camera traps to record the presence of this species. Our occupancy models revealed that

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2025.Abstract Beaver‐based restoration is emerging as a cost‐effective conservation and climate adaptation strategy, but efforts are constrained by limited knowledge of pre‐colonial beaver distribution and their long‐term ecosystem impacts. Here, we apply sedimentary ancient DNA (sedaDNA) techniques to investigate the history of beaver occupancy at three ...

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1031-1042, August 2025.ABSTRACT There is little information about the changes in the abundance of mammalian species in South America during the late Quaternary, which is a key parameter to understanding past ecological and evolutionary dynamics. Here, we describe a conspicuous increase in the abundance of the gray brocket deer (Subulo gouazoubira G.
