Abstract: Abstract Vegetation complexity is an important predictor of animal species diversity. Specifically, taller vegetation should provide more potential ecological niches and thus harbor communities with higher species richness and functional diversity (FD). Resource use behavior… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Landscape preferences shape decision-making and drive the ecological outcomes of urban landscapes. We investigate how people’s landscape preferences are shaped by the green space context (public park vs private residential garden landscapes) and by… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jvs.12747
Abstract: QUESTIONS: We experimentally studied whether different degrees of vegetation structural complexity, developed under different land‐use regimes, affected the retention of seeds in situ in the semiarid Chaco forest. We sought to answer the following questions:… read more here.
