, 2002 An important point was to see the rainforest project in relation to other papers compare findings, weaknesses, strengths, doubts, reflections, and so assess our project anew. This highlights the strength of this project, located in complexity and diversity of content, methods and media and reconfirmed that project is on the ‘right path’, despite of ...

Oikos, EarlyView.Most ecological models of species interactions require many parameters, making them expensive to fit to experimental or observational data. To reduce the number of parameters, species are often divided into groups a priori, for example on the basis of functional or phylogenetic similarity, and species within these groups are assumed to behave ...

Lose the plot: cost-effective survey of the Peak Range, central Queensland [PDF]
, 2013 The Peak Range (22˚ 28’ S; 147˚ 53’ E) is an archipelago of rocky peaks set in grassy basalt rolling-plains, east of Clermont in central Queensland. This report describes the flora and vegetation based on surveys of 26 peaks.

Inequalities in intraspecific plant–lemur interactions drive seed dispersal patterns
Oikos, EarlyView.Biotic interactions occur between individuals and accumulate to shape species‐level interaction structure across a community. Skewed interaction structures, where a few individuals are highly connected and most have few interactions, are increasingly identified at the individual‐level.

Oikos, EarlyView.As habitats change, the effectiveness of animal‐mediated seed dispersal increasingly depends on animal responses to altered structure and resources. With habitat loss and degradation accelerating across the tropics, understanding how dispersers' foraging behavior and movement influence seed removal and deposition is critical to promoting forest ...

Adaptive strategies in young Inga vera subsp. affinis plants under flooding [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of BiologyInga vera subsp. affinis (DC.) T.D.Penn. is a common species in riparian vegetation of the Atlantic Forest within the Upper Paraná River Floodplain (UPRF) and of great ecological importance in the restoration of native forests.

Oikos, EarlyView.Forest restoration success depends crucially on the reinitiation of ecological processes such as seed arrival that drive natural regeneration. We know little about whether, by increasing and diversifying local seed sources to alleviate seed limitation, and attracting animal frugivores to alleviate dispersal limitation, restoration could shift seed ...
