DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9939
Abstract: Abstract Precipitation‐induced landslides, which are predicted to increase under the changing climate, may have large impacts on insect community properties. However, understanding of how insect community properties shift following landslides remains limited because replicated research… read more here.

Contrasting effects of urbanization on arboreal and ground-dwelling land snails: role of trophic interactions and habitat fragmentation

DOI: 10.1007/s11252-020-00930-6
Abstract: Urbanization generally reduces wildlife populations. Individual species responses, however, are often highly variable, and such variability can be explained by differences in species ecological traits. To examine this hypothesis, we focused on two co-occurring land… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.biocon.2019.108328
Abstract: Abstract Intermittent streams are subject to high levels of environmental variation. However, little is known about how biota responds to river drying across the channel-to-upland habitat gradient. This is an important shortcoming because assumes that… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0191190
Abstract: The rapid and large-scale urbanization of peri-urban areas poses major and complex challenges for wildlife conservation. We used population viability analysis (PVA) to evaluate the influence of urban encroachment, fire, and fauna crossing structures, with… read more here.

DOI: 10.14411/eje.2017.042
Abstract: We studied the effects of the overstory canopy cover on ground-dwelling harvestmen communities in European beech forests in the Western Carpathian Mts. We analyzed the differences in species richness, abundance and composition in two tree… read more here.

DOI: 10.1590/1806-9665-rbent-2020-0026
Abstract: A challenge for studies on the organization of ant assemblages in forest ecosystems is to disentangle the causal effects of species occurrences. The structural and functional attributes of trees can act as environmental filters for… read more here.
