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 ...
Tree monocultures in a biodiversity hotspot : impact of pine plantations on mammal and bird assemblages in the Atlantic Forest
(Elsevier, 2018-09-01)
Forest plantations of fast-growing exotic species constitute an important economic activity in tropical and temperate regions of developing countries. Large areas of native forests and grasslands are being turned into tree ...
Efecto de la densidad de las forestaciones y la intensidad de cosecha en raleos mecanizados con harvester
(Instituto de Pesquisas e Estudos Florestais, 2019-09-01)
El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar cómo la densidad de la forestación y la intensidad de los raleos afectan a la cosecha con harvester. Fueron evaluados siete harvesters diferentes, en nueve situaciones de segundo ...
Influence of land use on the trophic niche overlap of dung beetles in the semideciduous Atlantic forest of Argentina
(John Wiley & Sons, 2018-11-01)
The degradation and replacement of natural ecosystems affect species abundance, diversity and interspecific interaction through the modification of resource availability and environmental conditions. Land uses preserving ...
Influence of land use on the taxonomic and functional diversity of dung beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeinae) in the southern Atlantic forest of Argentina
(Springer International Publishing Switzerland, 2008-03-01)
The degradation and replacement of native ecosystems affects both their taxonomic and functional biodiversity. However, native species may find a gradient of habitat suitability in different land uses within a region. The ...
