DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8648
Abstract: Abstract Understanding the risk of local extinction of a species is vital in conservation biology, especially now when anthropogenic disturbances and global warming are severely changing natural habitats. Local extinction risk depends on species traits,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.combustflame.2018.09.028
Abstract: Abstract Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) of droplet fields which are ignited using a spark are investigated to deduce any behaviour that distinguishes between the cases where successful flame propagation occurs and where a flame ignites… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.combustflame.2019.04.039
Abstract: Abstract Bluff-body turbulent CH4: H2 (1:1) flames at 50% (HM1), 75% (HM2) and 91% (HM3) of the blow-off velocity (235 m s − 1 ) were studied experimentally by Masri and co-workers and found to exhibit gradually… read more here.

Abstract: BACKGROUND AND AIMS Habitat degradation and landscape fragmentation dramatically lower population sizes of rare plant species. Decreasing population sizes may, in turn, negatively affect genetic diversity and reproductive fitness which can ultimately lead to local… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/1365-2656.12881
Abstract: Changes in species distributions through local extinction and colonization events are a major consequence of climate change. The mechanisms underlying these processes, however, are yet to be fully understood. We investigate the effects of climatic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ele.13727
Abstract: The scarcity of local plant extinctions following recent climate change has been explained by demographic inertia and lags in the displacement of resident species by novel species, generating an 'extinction debt'. We established a transplant… read more here.

Abstract: Melanophryniscus montevidensis inhabits sandy dunes along the Rio de la Plata shoreline and Atlantic coast in Uruguay and southern Brazil. Here we report 2 specimens from different localities at eastern Buenos Aires province, Argentina, that… read more here.
