A global meta-analysis on patterns of amphibian and reptile diversity in agroforestry systems

M de Jes�s Cervantes-L�pez, JC Morante-Filho�- Global Ecology and Conservation, 2024
Global herpetofauna faces threats by habitat loss and degradation, with amphibian
and reptile species maintenance in human-modified landscapes not only depending
on forest remnants, but also on biodiversity-friendly matrices, such as agroforestry�…

Animal species recognition with deep convolutional neural networks from ecological camera trap images

S Binta Islam, D Valles, TJ Hibbitts, WA Ryberg…�- Animals, 2023
Accurate identification of animal species is necessary to understand biodiversity
richness, monitor endangered species, and study the impact of climate change on
species distribution within a specific region. Camera traps represent a passive�…

Regional and global climate risks for reef corals: Incorporating species‐specific vulnerability and exposure to climate hazards

SW Kim, B Sommer, M Beger, JM Pandolfi�- Global Change Biology, 2023
Climate change is driving rapid and widespread erosion of the environmental
conditions that formerly supported species persistence. Existing projections of
climate change typically focus on forecasts of acute environmental anomalies and�…

Assessing reptile conservation status under global climate change

Q Li, W Shao, Y Jiang, C Yan, W Liao�- Biology, 2024
Global climate change drives variations in species distribution patterns and affects
biodiversity, potentially increasing the risk of species extinction. Investigating the
potential distribution range of species under future global climate change is crucial�…

Novel temperatures are already widespread beneath the world's tropical forest canopies

BT Trew, DP Edwards, AC Lees, DH Klinges, R Early…�- Nature Climate Change, 2024
Tropical forest biodiversity is potentially at high risk from climate change, but most
species reside within or below the canopy, where they are buffered from extreme
temperatures. Here, by modelling the hourly below-canopy climate conditions of�…

Exploring business stakeholder engagement in sustainable business practices: Evidence from the US pet amphibian industry

K Cavasos, NC Poudyal, JL Brunner, AR Warwick…�- Business Strategy and the�…, 2023
The recent decline in wild populations of amphibians worldwide coincides with the
period of rapid growth in the global trade of wildlife. The potential for pathogen
transmission within and beyond the pet amphibian trade network makes it important�…

Long‐term capture data uncover shifts in the daily activity patterns of Amazonian birds

CL Rutt, PC Stouffer, BR Amaral, DA Luther�- Oikos, 2023
Although the duration of biological rhythms varies from milliseconds to decades,
daily cycles are especially widespread for individual organisms. These circadian
rhythms are synchronized by light–dark cycles, which govern predictable changes in�…

Maternal chemical defenses predict offspring defenses in a dendrobatid poison frog

OL Brooks, JJ James, RA Saporito�- Oecologia, 2023
Within and among populations, alkaloid defenses of the strawberry poison frog
(Oophaga pumilio) vary spatially, temporally, and with life history stage. Natural
variation in defense has been implicated as a critical factor in determining the level of�…

A misleading tail: A long-term study of reptile responses to multiple disturbances undermined by a change in surveying techniques

MJ Evans, C MacGregor, D Lindenmayer�- PloS one, 2024
Long-term ecological monitoring is crucial to understanding the complex dynamics of
ecosystems, communities, and populations. Despite this, monitoring data are lacking
or rare for the vast majority of biodiversity. Here we report the results of 19 years�…

Still little evidence of poleward range shifts in the tropics, but lowland biotic attrition may be underway

RK Colwell, KJ Feeley�- Biotropica, 2024
Sixteen years ago, Colwell et al.(2008: Global warming, elevational range shifts, and
lowland biotic attrition in the wet tropics. Science, 322, 258) affirmed predictions that
climate change and rising global temperatures would lead to widespread upslope�…
