Sensitivity of tropical montane birds to anthropogenic disturbance and management strategies for their conservation in agricultural landscapes

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 6, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Tropical montane bird communities are hypothesized to be highly sensitive to anthropogenic disturbance because species are adapted to a narrow range of environmental conditions and display high rates of endemism. We assessed avian sensitivity at regional and continental scales for a global epicenter of montane bird biodiversity, the tropical ...

Seasonality regulates the structure and biogeochemical impact of ectomycorrhizal fungal communities across environmentally divergent neotropical dry forests

Journal of Ecology, Volume 111, Issue 8, Page 1598-1613, August 2023., 2023
These results highlight the importance of seasonality and plant community composition in shaping different aspects of SDTF ECM fungal community structure and diversity as well as the potential for both the plant and fungal components of ECM symbioses to impact soil functioning across heterogenous SDTFs.

Neutral‐based processes overrule niche‐based processes in shaping tropical montane orchid communities across spatial scales

Journal of Ecology, Volume 111, Issue 8, Page 1614-1628, August 2023., 2023
High compositional turnover, even across habitats with the highest degree of human intervention, suggests that both forest‐dwelling and open‐habitat species do not easily disperse across habitats. Species dispersal is the major force of orchid community turnover and might be strongly dependent upon macroevolutionary processes and species life‐history ...

Chilean bee diversity: Contrasting patterns of species and phylogenetic turnover along a large‐scale ecological gradient

Ecosphere, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Chile's isolation and varied climates have driven the evolution of a unique biodiversity with a high degree of endemism. As a result, Chile encompasses diverse environments, including the Mediterranean‐type ecosystem, a global biodiversity hotspot.

Successional and phenological effects on plant‐floral visitor interaction networks of a tropical dry forest

Journal of Ecology, Volume 111, Issue 4, Page 927-942, April 2023., 2023
Our results showed that plant‐floral visitor interactions are dynamic and vary with flowering phenology and with successional changes in plant and animal diversity. Plant‐floral visitor interactions were more diverse and specialised in the late successional stages.

Linking life history to landscape for threatened species conservation in a multiuse region

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 1, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Landscape‐scale conservation that considers metapopulation dynamics will be essential for preventing declines of species facing multiple threats to their survival. Toward this end, we developed a novel approach that combines occurrence records, spatial–environmental data, and genetic information to model habitat, connectivity, and patterns of ...

Diversity patterns of epiphytic bryophytes across spatial scales: Species‐rich crowns and beta‐diverse trunks

Biotropica, Volume 54, Issue 4, Page 893-905, July 2022., 2022
Forest canopies are highly complex habitats, home to a wide range of organism groups. We observed that spatial scaling of alpha and beta diversity patterns differs between crown and trunk epiphytic bryophyte communities. The evidence we provide contributes to further understanding how processes such as species interactions and environmental filtering ...

Osteoporosis

Revista de la Sociedad Argentina de Diabetes, 2023
En los últimos 30 años se ha demostrado, a través de un creciente cuerpo de evidencia experimental y clínica, que la diabetes mellitus (DM) ejerce efectos deletéreos sobre el tejido óseo, siendo un blanco más de las complicaciones de la DM.

La muerte es tema para los vivos: una perspectiva socioética [PDF]

, 1997
Sorprende que la muerte no haya sido un gran tema para los sociólogos clásicos. Aparentemente, interesaba a éstos más la estructura que lo específico, y de este modo no tuvieron una reflexión expresa sobre el tema del recambio del "personal" que ocupa ...
