Bird metacommunities in temperate South American forest: vegetation structure, area, and climate effects.
Spatial structure in metacommunities and their relationships to environmental gradients have been linked to opposing theories of community assembly. In particular, while the species sorting hypothesis predicts strong environmental influences, the neutral theory, the mass effect, and the patch dynamics frameworks all predict differing degrees of spatial structure resulting from dispersal and com...
متن کاملMulti-dimensional vegetation structure in modeling avian habitat
Article history: Received 31 December 2006 Accepted 2 January 2007 The goal of this study was to evaluate the contributions of forest and landscape structure derived from remote sensing instruments to habitatmapping. Our empirical data focused at the landscape scale on a test site in northern Michigan, using radar and Landsat imagery and bird-presence data by species. We tested the contribution...
متن کاملRisks assessment of forest project implementation in spatial density changes of forest under canopy vegetation using artificial neural network modeling approach
Risks assessment of forest project implementation in spatial density changes of forest under canopy vegetation using artificial neural network modeling approach Nowadays, environmental risk assessment has been defined as one of the effective in environmental planning and policy making. Considering the position and structure of vegetation on the forest floor, the main role of forest under ca...

متن کاملOpposing Responses of Bird Functional Diversity to Vegetation Structural Diversity in Wet and Dry Forest
Disturbance regimes are changing worldwide, and the consequences for ecosystem function and resilience are largely unknown. Functional diversity (FD) provides a surrogate measure of ecosystem function by capturing the range, abundance and distribution of trait values in a community. Enhanced understanding of the responses of FD to measures of vegetation structure at landscape scales is needed t...
