In this paper led by @Goncalves_fhm and published in PNASNews we mapped the risk of extinction of vertebrates due to natural hazards such as hurricanes and volcano eruptions. We find that nearly 10% of the more than 30k species assessed are at risk. pnas.org/doi/abs/10.107…

Another fun collaboration with my friends Leandro Giacobelli Cosmo and Paulo Guimaraes. Out now in Phil Trans B Royal Society Publishing In this paper we show that coevolutionary hotspots can help to prevent extinctions in metacommunities under environmental change royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

This was also Julia N. Acquaviva (Coral) 's first paper. Off to a great start :)

Congratulations Andre Martinez for publishing the first chapter of your thesis in Oikos. In this paper we explore two methods to estimate missing plant-frugivore interactions and show how those interactions can change network structure. nsojournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

Brasil já perdeu um terço de sua vegetação nativa, mostra MapBiomas ⬇️ Destruição de áreas naturais atingiu marca histórica em 2023. Nova coleção de dados mostra que 33% da conversão de áreas ocorreu nas últimas quatro décadas oeco.org.br/noticias/brasi…

🌳O Brasil perdeu 33% das áreas naturais até 2023, de acordo com a nova coleção de dados do MapBiomas. Áreas naturais englobam as classes: floresta, vegetação herbácea e arbustiva, praia, duna e areal, e rio, lago e oceano. Metade dessa perda ocorreu na Amazônia.

Our most recent paper in Oikos 🤠

😮😮😮

Very happy that our paper on how to estimate seed dispersal interactions (doi.org/10.1111/oik.10…) is featured on the cover of Oikos illustrated by this shot I took from this gorgeous Red-legged Honeycreeper (Cyanerpes cyaneus) 🤠

I'm thankful to Juan Li for inviting me to collaborate on this paper. Using the Tibetan Plateau as a study system we show how to combine indices ranking species as umbrella, flagship and keystone to determine conservation surrogates sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Home to species found nowhere else on Earth, the vast ecosystem of Brazil's Cerrado requires urgent attention as its landscape is increasingly transformed for economic growth—here's what happens when progress outpaces preservation. 🔗 on.natgeo.com/4kozspJ

Happy to share this study where we used exclosure experiments in the Amazon to quantify the extent to which defaunation can disrupt ecosystem functions of large vertebrates. A collaboration with LABECON Ufopa, funded by Programa Biota/Fapesp and Fapespa sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Qual o papel do seu pet na sua vida? E os animais, como interagem com a vegetação e auxiliam a floresta? É isso que os pesquisadores do IPAM querem saber em mais um dos estudos da Estação de Pesquisa Tanguro. Gostou do tema? Acesse o site da iniciativa. ipam.org.br/tanguro/

In this paper, which is another output of the thesis by (now) Dr. João Nascimento, we present evidence that 'Variation in prey availability over time shaped the extinction dynamics of sabre-toothed cats'. doi.org/10.1093/jeb/vo… art by F3lip3 🪲
