frontiermetrics: An R Package for Characterizing Deforestation Frontiers

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Deforestation frontiers are major drivers of biodiversity loss, carbon emissions, and ecosystem degradation, yet our understanding of how deforestation progresses in these frontiers is limited. We present frontiermetrics, an R package to quantify a range of metrics describing the speed, severity, and spatio‐temporal patterns of forest loss. The package

Optimising daily sampling of plant–bee interaction networks

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Daily variation in ecological interaction networks is rarely quantified due to limited temporal sampling, yet network structure may change substantially within a single day. We show that plant–bee networks exhibit strong intraday shifts in composition and structure, and that sampling distributed across key daily periods better captures network ...

Bat community assembly in the ecotone of two neotropical biodiversity hotspots is determined by environmental filtering rather than historical factors

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that environmental filtering is the primary mechanism shaping bat communities across the Cerrado–Atlantic Forest ecotone. By integrating phylogenetic diversity, environmental gradients, and coevolutionary assembly models, our study provides new insights into the processes maintaining biodiversity in a globally important transition zone ...

Los procesos territoriales en los seres vivos

Cuadernos de Geografía: Revista Colombiana de Geografía
El ser humano ha sido considerado una especie territorial; sin embargo, ha existido poco dialogo entre los zoólogos y los científicos humanistas entorno al concepto de territorio.

Cold storage effects on immature calliphoridae: Survival limits and forensic consequences for PMI estimation

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated the effects of continuous refrigeration (4°C ± 2°C and 50% ± 5% RH) on the development and survival of immature stages (eggs, first, second, and third instar larvae, and pupae) of four forensically important blowfly species (Chrysomya megacephala, Chrysomya putoria, Hemilucilia segmentaria, and Lucilia cuprina) compared

Modelos mentales en estudiantes universitarios acerca de Evolución

Bio-grafía
La evolución no se abarca a profundidad porque las teorías propuestas son controvertidas y muchas veces se opone a las concepciones de docentes y estudiantes, lo que evidencia que en las áreas disciplinares de botánica y zoología no se implementa a ...

The Evolution of Male Weapons Is Associated with the Type of Breeding Site in a Clade of Neotropical Frogs

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Male weaponry evolution is often linked to male–male competition, but its relationship with breeding site type remains unclear. Using Leptodactylinae frogs, we found a macroevolutionary correlation between breeding site type and weapon evolution. Also, gains and losses of weapons occurred more frequently in exposed‐breeding sites, an unexpected finding.
