Bird responses to forest loss are influence by habitat specialization
Zurita, Gustavo Andrés; Pe'er, Guy; Bellocq, Maria Isabel (Diversity and Distributions. Wiley Online Library, 2017-05-16)Aim Due to intrinsic differences in the sensitivity to habitat grain among species, studies performed at different extent are necessary to understand the consequences of forest loss and fragmentation. Using a large database, ... -
Dung beetles response to livestock management in three different regional contexts
Guerra Alonso, Celeste Beatríz; Zurita, Gustavo Andrés; Bellocq, Maria Isabel (Scientific Reports, 2020-02-28)The response of biological communities to human disturbances depends on factors acting at local and regional scale and on the interaction between them. We compared the response of native forest dung beetle communities to ... -
Edge effects and their influence on habitat suitability calculations: a continuous approach applied to birds of the Atlantic forest
Zurita, Gustavo Andrés; Pe'er, Guy; Bellocq, Maria Isabel; Hansbauer, Miriam M. (British Ecological Society, 2012-01-18)1. The suitability of human-modified habitats for native species and the response of species to habitat edges are two important ecological processes that affect species and communities in fragmented landscapes. However, ... -
Livestock grazing impact differently on the functional diversity of dung beetles depending on the regional context in subtropical forests.
Guerra Alonso, Celeste Beatríz; Zurita, Gustavo Andrés; Bellocq, Maria Isabel (Scientific Reports, 2022-01-31)The replacement of native forest by cattle pastures reduces functional diversity; however, little is known about whether the changes depend on regional variation. Dung beetles are one of the most diverse and functionally ... -
Simple Process-Based Simulators for Generating Spatial Patterns of Habitat Loss and Fragmentation: A Review and Introduction to the G-RaFFe Model
Pe'er, Guy; Zurita, Gustavo Andrés; Schober, Lucia; Bellocq, Maria Isabel; Strer, Maximilian; Müller, Michael; Pütz, Sandro (Simon Thrush, National Institute of Water & Atmospheric Research, New Zealand, 2013-05-28)Landscape simulators are widely applied in landscape ecology for generating landscape patterns. These models can be divided into two categories: pattern-based models that generate spatial patterns irrespective of the ... -
Species–fragmented area relationship
Hanski, Ilkka; Zurita, Gustavo Andrés; Bellocq, Maria Isabel; Rybicki, Joel (Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), 2013-07-30)The species–area relationship (SAR) gives a quantitative description of the increasing number of species in a community with increasing area of habitat. In conservation, SARs have been used to predict the number of extinctions ...
