Tree retention in cattle ranching systems partially preserves dung beetle diversity and functional groups in the semideciduous Atlantic forest : The role of microclimate and soil conditions
(Elsevier, 2018-10-01)
The disturbance of natural environments affects, among others, the diversity of dung beetle assemblages, which could have serious consequences for the ecological processes regulated by these insects. The objective of this ...
Relationship between land uses and diversity of dung beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeinae) in the southern Atlantic forest of Argentina: which are the key factors?
(Springer International Publishing Switzerland, 2018-07-26)
The loss of natural habitats is one of the main drivers of biodiversity decline. Anthropogenic land uses preserving biotic and abiotic conditions of the native ecosystem are more suitable to preserve the native biodiversity. ...
Styrax Acuminatus (Styracaceae), nuevo registro para la flora Argentina
(Darwiniana Nueva Serie, 2019-07-31)
El género Styrax incluye cerca de 130 especies leñosas. Para la Argentina han sido registradas dos especies. En la presente contribución una tercera especie, Styrax acuminatus, es citada por primera vez para la provincia ...
Bird responses to forest loss are influence by habitat specialization
(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, ...
Thermal niche helps to explain the ability of dung beetles to exploit disturbed habitats
(Scientific Reports, 2020-08-07)
In terrestrial ecosystems, insects face a wide range of temperatures among habitats and time; consequently, the thermal niche is one of the main determinants of habitat selection and temporal patterns of activity. The ...
Spiders (Arachnida: Araneae) in the semideciduous Atlantic Forest : An ecological and morphological trait dataset for functional studies
(Biodiversity Data Journal, 2020-03-12)
Background
The semideciduous Atlantic Forest is one of the most diverse ecosystems in the world with a great diversity of spiders. Most spider-related studies in this ecosystem focused on species richness and composition; ...
Dung beetles response to livestock management in three different regional contexts
(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 ...
Integrated approach for the bucking and production planning problems in forest industry
(ScienceDirect. Computers & Chemical Engineering., 2019-03-14)
The appropriate integration among production activities is a key factor for the development of the forest industry in the northeast of Argentina. Sawmills are one of the main logs consumers. However, production planning ...
Species–fragmented area relationship
(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 ...
Stock de carbono y condición física de un kandiudult bajo distintos manejos forestales en la provincia de Misiones
(Asociación Argentina de la Ciencia del Suelo, 2018-12-01)
El mantenimiento del contenido de carbono orgánico y de una adecuada condición física es un requisito esencial en suelos subtro- picales con excesiva pluviosidad como los de la provincia de Misiones, en los cuales los ...
