Los mapas como abstracción y espacio imaginativo: representando el urbanismo informal
La movilidad cotidiana y la conectividad urbana se hacen explícitas en diagramas de patrones de circulación, trazado narrativo de trayectorias o anotación coreográfica de rutinas cinéticas. Sin embargo, también están fuertemente implícitas en las plantas

Effects of restoration practices on biodiversity in temperate and boreal forests
Abstract Several restoration practices are used to mitigate and compensate for the negative effects of large‐scale forestry on biodiversity in temperate and boreal forests. A comprehensive synthesis of the benefits of these practices across taxa is missing. We conducted a systematic review and meta‐analysis on this topic.

How vulnerable are amphibians to climate change? A mechanistic perspective
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Amphibians are frequently identified as highly vulnerable to climate change, yet the mechanisms driving this sensitivity remain uncertain. Approaches that explicitly link physiological mechanisms to environmental variation provide powerful tools for forecasting climate ...

Functional divergence drives the prevalence of low‐abundance species in bat assemblages
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecological communities are structured by a few common species, while most occur at low abundance. Understanding the drivers of this widespread pattern raises fundamental questions about community assembly rules and is important for applied ecology for identifying ...

Landscape forest cover, not edge contrast, modulates edge effects on palm diversity
Our findings demonstrate that landscape forest cover plays a critical role in modulating edge effects in plant communities in our study system, but not all woody crops systems provide buffering benefits, as cacao plantations in our study failed to soften edge effects.

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 ...
