DOI: 10.1007/s10531-020-02016-3
Abstract: Bird survival in winter relies on the availability of key population resources such as food, shelter and resting sites. In annual crops, intensive crop management has been shown to affect bird communities through a reduction… read more here.

Conservation value of moist evergreen Afromontane forest sites with different management and history in southwestern Ethiopia
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Biological Conservation"
DOI: 10.1016/j.biocon.2019.02.008
Abstract: Tropical forest ecosystems harbor high biodiversity, but they have suffered from ongoing human-induced degradation. We investigated the conservation value of moist evergreen Afromontane forest sites across gradients of site-level disturbance, landscape context and forest history… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.biocon.2021.109286
Abstract: Abstract Land use changes and accelerating deforestation rates impact biodiversity on a global scale. While it is well established that the loss of primary forests is devastating, considerably less is understood about the conservation value… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-08139-0
Abstract: Land-use change pushes biodiversity into human-modified landscapes, where native ecosystems are surrounded by anthropic land covers (ALCs). Yet, the ability of species to use these emerging covers remains poorly understood. We quantified the use of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/avsc.12318
Abstract: Questions How do species richness and composition of fern assemblages change with elevation and, within elevational belts, in differently impacted forest habitats? Is there a relationship between fern assemblages and microclimate, both along gradients of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/cobi.13147
Abstract: Capturing the full range of climatic diversity in a reserve network is expected to improve the resilience of biodiversity to climate change. Therefore, a study on systematic conservation planning for climatic diversity that explicitly or… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/cobi.13820
Abstract: High‐conservation‐value forests (HCVFs) are critically important for biodiversity and ecosystem service provisioning, but they face many threats. Where systematic HCVF inventories are missing, such as in parts of Eastern Europe, these forests remain largely unacknowledged… read more here.
