Major axes of variation in tree demography across global forests

M. d. S. Leite, S. M. McMahon, P. I. Prado, S. J. Davies, A. A. d. Oliveira, H. P. De Deurwaerder, S. Aguilar, K. J. Anderson-Teixeira, N. Aqilah, N. A. Bourg, W. Y. Brockelman, N. Castano, C.-H. Chang-Yang, Y.-Y. Chen, G. Chuyong, , R. Phillips

This study identifies key sources of variation in tree demography across global forests using a variance partitioning framework, finding species differences as a major driver of demographic variance.

A pragmatic approach to make theoretical syntheses in ecology

B. Travassos-Britto, R. Pardini, C. El-Hani, P. I. Prado

The paper presents a pragmatic approach to create theoretical syntheses in ecology by analyzing how ecologists use information and knowledge to study ecological phenomena, applied to ecological succession.

The erosion of biodiversity and biomass in the Atlantic Forest biodiversity hotspot

R. A. F. Lima, A. A. de Oliveira, G. R. Pitta, A. L. de Gasper, A. C. Vibrans, J. Chave, H. ter Steege, P. I. Prado

The paper quantifies biodiversity and biomass loss in the Atlantic Forest using field surveys, showing significant declines in species and carbon value.

Disentangling the effects of sampling scale and size on the shape of species abundance distributions

R. A. F. Lima, P. A. Conde, C. Banks-Leite, R. C. Campos, M. I. M. Hernandez, R. R. Rodrigues, P. I. Prado

The paper investigates how sample size and sampling scale affect species abundance distributions (SADs) in three taxa, finding sample size is the main driver, with conspecific aggregation and beta diversity playing secondary roles.

Ponds, puddles, floodplains and dams in the Upper Xingu Basin: could we be witnessing the ‘lentification’ of deforested Amazonia?

L. C. Schiesari, P. R. Ilha, D. D. B. Negri, P. I. Prado, B. Grillitsch

The paper examines how deforestation in the Amazon increases lentic habitats, affecting freshwater biodiversity through reservoirs, floodplains, and temporary water bodies.
