Functional diversity of snakes is explained by the landscape composition at multiple areas of influence

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023
This study investigated the impact of roads and landscape composition on the functional diversity of snakes in the Orinoco region of Colombia. The results suggest that landscape composition affects the functional diversity of both road‐killed snakes and those inhabiting the adjacent vegetation within an area of influence ranging from 250 to 2000 m. The

Integrating habitat‐masked range maps with quantifications of prevalence to estimate area of occupancy in IUCN assessments

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 1, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Estimates of species geographic ranges constitute critical input for biodiversity assessments, including those for the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species. Area of occupancy (AOO) is one metric that IUCN uses to quantify a species’ range, but data limitations typically lead to either under ...

The Art of Assemblage at La Venta

open access: yesArt History, Volume 45, Issue 4, Page 832-857, September 2022., 2022
How might the meaning of monumental sculpture be ephemeral? At La Venta, objects from greenstone figurines to massive basalt sculptures were recycled, reworked, and moved around the landscape, their new configurations and associations creating new kinds of meaning and enabling new kinds of ritual interaction.

Congruence of local ecological knowledge (LEK)‐based methods and line‐transect surveys in estimating wildlife abundance in tropical forests

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 3, Page 743-756, March 2022., 2022
Abstract Effective estimation of wildlife population abundance is an important component of population monitoring, and ultimately essential for the development of conservation actions. Diurnal line‐transect surveys are one of the most applied methods for abundance estimations.

Peninsular southern Europe refugia during the Middle Palaeolithic: an introduction

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 37, Issue 2, Page 133-135, February 2022., 2022
ABSTRACT Neanderthals faced great environmental and climatic instability during the Pleistocene, which may have influenced their lithic technology, subsistence patterns, mobility, behaviour and survival. Modern research assessing the effect of climate and environment on the Middle Palaeolithic and transition to the Upper Palaeolithic has often turned ...

On the taxonomic identity and nomenclature of Cyperus megapotamicus (Cyperaceae)

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 39, Issue 8, August 2021., 2021
Cyperus megapotamicus (A. Spreng.) Kunth is a nomenclatural synonym of Rhynchospora megapotamica (A. Spreng.) H. Pfeiff. but was originally misapplied to a species of Cyperus. Contrary to the rules, both species names are in current use in different genera.

Evaluating surrogates of genetic diversity for conservation planning

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 634-642, April 2021., 2021
Abstract Protected‐area systems should conserve intraspecific genetic diversity. Because genetic data require resources to obtain, several approaches have been proposed for generating plans for protected‐area systems (prioritizations) when genetic data are not available. Yet such surrogate‐based approaches remain poorly tested.

Effects of site‐selection bias on estimates of biodiversity change

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 688-698, April 2021., 2021
Abstract Estimates of biodiversity change are essential for the management and conservation of ecosystems. Accurate estimates rely on selecting representative sites, but monitoring often focuses on sites of special interest. How such site‐selection biases influence estimates of biodiversity change is largely unknown.
