DOI: 10.1007/s10661-017-6430-4
Abstract: Fragmented forests generate a variety of forest edges, leading to microclimates in the edge zones that differ from those in the forest interior. Understanding microclimatic variation is an important consideration for managers because it helps… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10841-019-00168-4
Abstract: From the forest edge to the forest interior, a small-scale gradient in the microclimate exists. Little is known about its influence on the abundance, diversity and morphological traits of insects in Amazonian forests, a major… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2016.10.056
Abstract: Abstract There is an increased species richness and species diversity at the edges of forest-grassland mosaics. Taxonomic diversity, however, provides little information on the function or evolutionary history of species, although such is critical in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2017.12.023
Abstract: Abstract Comparative investigations were undertaken in five forest fragments (Chawia, Fururu, Mbololo, Ngangao and Vuria) of varying sizes in Taita Hills, Kenya to examine the effects of forest edge on soil moisture, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/biology11101532
Abstract: Simple Summary For monocot herbs growing in the understory of wet tropical forests face an extreme hazard in falling branches and debris from the canopy. We compared the response of two species of understory herbs… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/d15060731
Abstract: Habitat loss, and subsequent fragmentation, can increase the amount of forest edge. Primate species vary in their responses to such changes in their habitat. We studied the movement ecology of a group of reddish-brown cuxiú… read more here.
