DOI: 10.1017/s0266467418000056
Abstract: Abstract: Recent observations from the tropics indicate seasonal peaks in breeding and vocal activity of some bird species. However, information about seasonality in vocal activity at the community level is still lacking in the tropics.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0266467419000026
Abstract: Abstract Herbaceous plants are often under-studied in tropical forests, despite their high density and diversity, and little is known about the factors that influence their distribution at microscales. In a 25-ha plot in lowland Amazonian… read more here.
