Impacts of forest fragmentation on species richness: a hierarchical approach to community modelling
1. Species richness is often used as a tool for prioritizing conservation action. One method for predicting richness and other summaries of community structure is to develop species-specific models of occurrence probability based on habitat or landscape characteristics. However, this approach can be challenging for rare or elusive species for which survey data are often sparse. 2. Recent develo...
متن کاملResponses of Breeding Bird Communities to Forest Fragmentation
Field studies in eastern North America indicate that local densities of most forest-dwelling bird species are directly or indirectly influenced by forest insularization. Relevant site variables among those measured include patch area and isolation, tree stature and density, and development of herbaceous and shrub understorey. In general, highly migratory species that specialize on forest-interi...
متن کاملEffects of Natural Forest Fragmentation on a Hawaiian Spider Community
Thekipuka system, anetworkof forest fragments surroundedby lavaßowson the island of Hawaii, offers an opportunity to study the natural, long-term fragmentation of a native ecosystem. We examined the impacts of habitat edges upon the community structure of nocturnally active native spiders, primarily in the genus Tetragnatha.Wemeasured plant and spider species distributions across the edges of f...
متن کاملQuantifying the Detrimental Impacts of Land-Use and Management Change on European Forest Bird Populations
The ecological impacts of changing forest management practices in Europe are poorly understood despite European forests being highly managed. Furthermore, the effects of potential drivers of forest biodiversity decline are rarely considered in concert, thus limiting effective conservation or sustainable forest management. We present a trait-based framework that we use to assess the detrimental ...
متن کاملFragmentation and elevation effects on bird–army ant interactions in neotropical montane forest of Costa Rica
Army ants (Formicidae: Ecitoninae) are top predators in neotropical forests. Army ant raids support a community of diverse organisms, including birds that attend the raids to collect prey. While elevation and forest fragmentation influence army ant and insectivorous bird communities, their effects on the interaction between army ants and bird species is unknown. We studied the size and species ...
