La diversidad funcional es la variedad de funciones que desempeñan las especies en los
ecosistemas. Su estudio en comunidades animales todavía es incipiente y, por ello, el …

Human impacts contribute to the reduction of biodiversity. To describe biodiversity loss and
identify its causes, biologists (in particular ecologists) use a wide range of models …

Context Land degradation from mining influences biodiversity and ecosystem functioning.
However, comparative studies using small mammal functional groups within rehabilitated …

There is a need to revise the framework used to project species risks under climate change
(CC) and land‐use/cover change (LUCC) scenarios. We built a CC risk index using the …

Global biodiversity is threatened by the anthropogenic restructuring of animal communities,
rewiring species interaction networks in real-time as individuals are extirpated or introduced …

Freshwater biodiversity loss is a major concern, and global warming is already playing a
significant role in species extinctions. Our main goal was to predict climate change impacts …

Land use intensification and climate change are two prominent drivers of variation in
biological communities. However, we know very little about how these two potential …

There has been a recent exponential growth in the study of functional trait ecology.
Nonetheless, the study of functional traits and functional groups has been limited for …

Mediterranean landscapes constitute a biodiversity hotspot where species distribution and
composition have been shaped by a long history of traditional land use. In this work, we …

How far are we from predicting the occurrence of zoonotic diseases? In this paper we have
made use of both socioecological and ecological variables to predict Chagas disease …
