Published in 2020 at "American Journal of Primatology"

DOI: 10.1002/ajp.23110

Abstract: Studies on the impact of habitat loss on species occurrence consistently find that the amount of habitat (measured as patch area) is a major determinant of species occurrence at a patch‐level. However, patch‐level research may… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.10799

Abstract: Abstract Habitat loss (HL) is a major cause of species extinctions. Although the effects of HL beyond the directly impacted area have been previously observed, they have not been modelled explicitly, especially in an eco‐evolutionary… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.3113

Abstract: Abstract Habitat loss can alter animal movements and disrupt animal seed dispersal mutualisms; however, its effects on spatial patterns of seed dispersal are not well understood. To explore the effects of habitat loss on seed… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.71741

Abstract: ABSTRACT The extinction threshold hypothesis proposes a minimum of 30% habitat in a landscape to prevent isolation from affecting populations to local extinction. In this study, we tested scenarios of habitat loss in the landscape… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Ecosphere"

DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.70233

Abstract: Complex coastal habitats including seaweed and kelp forests are declining throughout the world due to the impacts of ocean warming, coastal development, overfishing, and pollution. Complex habitats provide shelter, food, nesting, and nursery sites, allowing… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Ecology"

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3071

Abstract: Recent observations have found plant species-specific fly host selection (i.e., specialization) of wasp parasitoids (wasps) in plant-fly-wasp (P-F-W) tripartite networks, yet no study has explored the dynamical implications of such high-order specialization for the persistence… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Wildlife Biology"

DOI: 10.1002/wlb3.01204

Abstract: Habitat loss and fragmentation are two of the biggest threats facing wildlife today. Understanding the role of wildlife pathways in connecting resource areas is key for maintaining landscape connectivity, reducing the impacts of habitat loss… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Biological Conservation"

DOI: 10.1016/j.biocon.2021.109064

Abstract: Abstract Habitat loss and fragmentation can be long-term processes driving extinction debts, especially in cities. Because of a lack of temporal data, long-term impacts are generally investigated less frequently than short-term impacts. However, these effects… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Ecological Modelling"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2018.06.016

Abstract: Exploring the mechanism of plant species persistence in fragmented landscapes has already become a major issue in spatial ecology. Most of previous models predicted that habitat loss and fragmentation negatively impact plant species persistence, while… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Global Ecology and Conservation"

DOI: 10.1016/j.gecco.2019.e00692

Abstract: Abstract Habitat loss and degradation are among the leading causes of local extinctions, so it is crucially important to preserve and restore the remaining critical habitat increasingly critical to conserve biodiversity. However, mechanisms driving species… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Journal of Environmental Economics and Management"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jeem.2021.102451

Abstract: Evidence suggests that emerging infectious diseases, such as COVID-19, originate from wildlife species, and that land-use change is an important pathway for pathogen transmission to humans. We first focus on zoonotic disease spillover and the… read more here.
