DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8700
Abstract: Abstract We explore the effect of land‐use change from extensively used grasslands to intensified silvi‐ and agricultural monocultures on metacommunity structure of native forests in Uruguay. We integrated methods from metacommunity studies, remote sensing, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2021.112147
Abstract: The intensive shift on land cover by anthropogenic activities have led to changes in natural habitats and environmental contamination, which can ultimately impact and threat biodiversity and ecosystem services, such as pollination. The aim of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolind.2018.09.018
Abstract: Abstract Native saproxylic (deadwood dependent) beetle species living in exotic forest plantations may provide environmental services for forestry companies, but their sensitivity to forest management makes them difficult to conserve. Here, we used Structural Equation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2017.09.026
Abstract: Abstract Native forest in central Chile has been increasingly replaced by exotic forest plantations. In particular, saproxylic beetles could be highly sensitive to exotic forest plantations due to the clear-cutting management decreases deadwood accumulation while… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2018.07.051
Abstract: Abstract The native vegetation within tree plantations increases the suitability for native biodiversity; however, the regeneration of this vegetation depends on the movement of seeds from the native forest by vertebrates and wind. In the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2019.02.039
Abstract: Abstract Information about invasive alien species and their interactions with the environment and native ecosystems is very important to prevent widespread loss of original habitats and biodiversity. Black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) is one of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2019.03.018
Abstract: Abstract The intensive management of tree plantations has replaced and fragmented native forests worldwide. A direct consequence of this activity is the creation of new edges, which generate changes in microclimatic conditions in the adjacent… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.funeco.2016.06.003
Abstract: The native forest-tree pathogen Ceratocystis tsitsikammensis infects native trees (e.g. Virgilia divaricata) and Acacia mearnsii, an invasive alien and important forestry tree in South Africa. We explored the physiological effects of infection by this fungus… read more here.
