- Influence of ecological and evolutionary processes in structuring amphibian communities at different spatial and temporal scales, AP.BTA.JP
Abstract
A key challenge in ecological research is to integrate data from different scales to evaluate the ecological and evolutionary mechanisms that influence current patterns of biological diversity. Previous studies have shown that the climate oscillations of the Quaternary strongly influenced the current species composition of amphibians. However, we do not know how species are distributed ...
- Effect of Atlantic Forest vegetation remnants on the distribution modelling of bird species showing different levels of forest dependence, BP.IC
Abstract
The species distribution modelling (SDM) is widely used in biogeographic studies to investigate how abiotic and biotic factors of the specie's localities estimates their geographic distribution. Although most studies use only climatic data as reference, variables such as land use and vegetation cover have been included in recent modelling. In general, models including vegetation data ar...
- Patterns and processes in the origin and diversification of terrestrial vertebrate diversity in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, BP.PD
Abstract
The Atlantic Forest (AF) is a global conservation hotspot due to the large number of highly threatened endemic species. Several models have been proposed to explain the underlying causes of the high biodiversity in this biome. For example, the refuge theory poses that areas richer in species today are so because they were more climatically stable during the Plio-Pleistocene. This theory...
- Spatial distribution of tadpoles functional diversity along climate gradations in Atlantic Forest, BP.IC
Abstract
It is recognized that spatial distribution of species within communities is not random, but rather reflects their shared ecological tolerances. For example, if extreme environmental conditions (i.e., dryness) limit the occurrence of species with certain functional traits, environmental filtering process increases the functional redundancy in communities. On the other hand, in areas with...
