Bird occupancy in intensively managed agroecosystems under large-scale organic and conventional farming in Argentina: A multi-species approach
(Elsevier, 2021-09)Several studies in European and North American agroecosystems conclude that organic farming benefits birds compared to conventional farming. Nevertheless, there are some biases toward these geographic regions and farm size. ... -
Density, habitat use, and opportunities for conservation of shorebirds in rice fields in southeastern South America
(Bioone, 2014-08)Worldwide, shorebirds are a major component of rice field avian biodiversity. Rice fields in Argentina and southern Brazil hold large numbers of shorebirds and have been recognized as important areas for migrating or ... -
Exposure of Nonbreeding Migratory Shorebirds to Cholinesterase Inhibiting Contaminants in the Western Hemisphere
(Oxford Academic Press, 2010-02)Migratory shorebirds frequently forage and roost in agricultural habitats, where they may be exposed to cholinesterase-inhibiting pesticides. Exposure to organophosphorus and carbamate compounds, common anti-cholinesterases, ... -
Mapping extinction debt highlights conservation opportunities for birds and mammals in the south American Chaco
(2018-02)Habitat loss is the primary cause of local extinctions. Yet, there is considerable uncertainty regarding how fast species respond to habitat loss, and how time‐delayed responses vary in space. We focused on the Argentine ... -
Multi-season regional analysis of multi-species occupancy : implications for bird conservation in agricultural lands in East-Central Argentina
(2015-07-18)Rapid expansion and intensification of agriculture create challenges for the conservation of biodiversity and associated ecosystem services. In Argentina, the total row crop planted area has increased in recent decades ... -
Occupancy of avian foraging guilds in soybean fields and borders in Entre Ríos, Argentina: responses to vegetation structure and prey resources
(BMC, 2020-12)Reconciling agriculture and biodiversity conservation is a challenge given the growing demand for agricultural products. In recent decades, Argentina has witnessed agricultural expansion and intensification affecting ... -
Tissue distribution and sublethal effects of imidacloprid in the South American grayish baywing (Agelaioides badius)
(Elsevier, 2021-12)The neonicotinoids are globally used insecticides, which have been shown to cause negative impacts on birds. The current study aimed to evaluate the distribution of the neonicotinoid imidacloprid (IMI) in the tissues of a ...
