Agroforestry landscapes and global change: landscape ecology tools for management and conservation
(Springer, 2012-07)Forest ecosystems are impacted by multiple uses under the influence of global drivers, and where landscape ecology tools may substantially facilitate the management and conservation of the agroforestry ecosystems. The use ... -
Biodiversity potential of Nothofagus forests in Tierra del Fuego (Argentina): tool proposal for regional conservation planning
(2016-09)It is difficult to map and quantify biodiversity at landscape level in areas with low data availability, despite demand from decision-makers. We propose a methodology to determine potential biodiversity pattern using habitat ... -
Co-benefits of soil carbon protection for invertebrate conservation
(Elsevier, 2020-12)The global decline in invertebrate diversity requires urgent conservation interventions. However, identifying priority conservation areas for invertebrates remains a significant challenge. We hypothesized that aligning the ... -
Effects of long-term low intensity silviculture and habitat on birds in Nothofagus antarctica forests of south Patagonia
(Elsevier, 2022-04-30)Low intensity silviculture has been used to decrease the impact of forest harvesting, for example, on bird species and structural diversity. The objective of this work was to analyse the long-term effect of thinning on ... -
Knowledge arising from long-term research of variable retention harvesting in Tierra del Fuego: where do we go from here?
(Springer Open, 2019-07)Nothofagus pumilio forests in Tierra del Fuego are the southernmost forests in the world, where extreme climate conditions represent a challenge to attain sustainable forest management. Retention forestry was proposed as ... -
Land sharing in South Patagonia: Conservation of above-ground beetle diversity in forests and non-forest ecosystems
(Elsevier, 2019-11)Land-sharing strategies, as variable retention silvicultural proposals, are useful to mitigate harmful effects of economic activities on forest biodiversity; benefits have been reported worldwide for several organisms. ... -
Potential biodiversity map of darkling beetles (Tenebrionidae): environmental characterization, land-uses and analyses of protection areas in Southern Patagonia
(Springer, 2019-07-23)Different methodologies had been developed for species management and conservation based on modelling of potential biodiversity at regional scales. However, most of these models were fitted for umbrella species (e.g. big ... -
Recent deforestation drove the spike in Amazonian fires
(IOP Publishing, 2020-12-11)Tropical forests are of global importance even though they only cover around 10% of the Earth's land surface. They store large amounts of carbon and host between one-half and two-thirds of the world's species (Lewis 2006). ... -
TRY plant trait database – enhanced coverage and open access
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019-12-31)Plant traits—the morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological characteristics of plants—determine how plants respond to environmental factors, affect other trophic levels, and influence ecosystem ... -
Variable retention forestry conserves habitat of bird species in Patagonian Nothofagus pumilio forests
("Marin Drăcea" National Research-Development Institute in Forestry, 2018-12-31)Variable retention is an alternative harvesting system that could be implemented instead the more traditional ones (e.g. shelterwood cut for N. pumilio forests in southern Patagonia), because it was designed not only for ...
