🌳🐸 En los bosques nativos y selvas, la caída natural de árboles (por vientos, rayos o descomposición de la madera) genera dinámicas en el suelo, afectando a las especies animales. Se han preguntado 🌎¿Qué pasa con los anfibios cuando estos árboles caen en la selva tropical? 🌐

🌱🦋 Urban parks are critical for butterfly´ trait diversity! 🌐 Our new study investigates how vegetation structure and landscape heterogeneity affect butterfly diversity in urban parks in the Andean city of #Bogotá 🌎 👇🧵 #UrbanEcology #Conservation #FunctionalEcology

🌍🐸🌐 What are the effects of forest edges on amphibian diversity in Amazonian floodplains? Our latest study sheds light on how environmental filters and limiting similarity shape the functional diversity of amphibian communities 🧪 Full article: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

On this #WorldSnakeDay 🐍 I would like to share one of the few studies on the functional diversity of snakes, in this case used to understand the effects of landscape transformation and roadkill #SnakeWeek #SnakeWeek2025 @snakeweek.bsky.social @iucn-snake.bsky.social

🌍🐝 Today, on #WorldBeeDay, we present our work on pollination in Passiflora crops. Understanding the functional traits of bees enhances agricultural production! 🌱🍯 link.springer.com/article/10.1... #Pollination @agroecologymap.bsky.social @global-ecology.bsky.social @savethebees.bsky.social

🌍🐸 How does environmental heterogeneity influence amphibian diversity in Andean highlands? We evaluate the heterogeneity of a natural páramo ecosystem using drone imagery at a resolution of 4 cm/pixel. @landscape.bsky.social 🔗 rdcu.be/elt8u #LandscapeEcology #AmphibianConservation #DroneTechnology

🐸🌱 Did you know that tadpoles of different species live in completely segregated ponds? Our study in the tropical forests of SE Mexico explores how vegetation, altitude & water shape tadpole abundance: revista.ib.unam.mx/index.php/bi... #Tadpoles #Amphibians #TropicalEcology #GlobalChangeBiology

🐸 We’re excited to share one of the few tadpole community ecology study in the Orinoco region. Water bodies formed by tractor tire tracks and cattle footprints hold much lower amphibian diversity than natural ponds. 👇🧵 🔗 www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.... #Tadpoles #Amphibians #CommunityEcology

🐸🌿 What happens to frogs and toads when tropical dry forests are fragmented? Our new study shows how edge effects profoundly alter the functional and taxonomic diversity of amphibians in Colombia’s Caribbean region www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... #TropicalDryForest #Amphibians #EdgeEffects

Rare species matter more than you think! In this new study, we show how the loss of low-abundance amphibians affects functional diversity in tropical forests of the Colombian Pacific. #Biodiversity #Conservation #Ecology

Absolutely beautiful and visually stunning 🤩🐸🌎 #scicomm

🌳A few key issues limit the ability to monitor forest change and #deforestation. One of those issues is the lack of alignment with satellite data as many forest definitions are from a time before satellites. Learn more: buff.ly/49pJrpJ

🌍 In this paper we highlight critical knowledge shortfalls in #EcosystemServices mapping! Many services (e.g., wind energy, disease regulation) lack spatial data, limiting their integration into #ConservationPlanning. Urgent need for better biodiversity-service links. doi.org/10.1016/j.bi...

Invasive alien species are a threat to #nature, nature’s contributions to people, and good quality of life. Read the @ipbes.bsky.social #InvasiveAlienSpecies Report at: www.ipbes.net/ias 🧪🌍

Only 15% of the 314 threatened amphibian species in Colombia have data on their diet, highlighting the urgent need for more trophic ecology research to understand their role in the ecosystem. 🌿🐸 #Amphibians #Conservation #Biodiversity #Ecology onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

The co-creation of SDM tools like #WallaceEcoMod and BioModelos is transforming biodiversity conservation by combining expert knowledge and agile development to empower decision-making for a changing planet. #Biodiversity #ConservationTech #ClimateAction #OpenScience #CoDesign #WallaceEcoMod #COP16

The Global South harbors rich biodiversity, yet enhancing equity in tropical biology requires recognizing local socio-economic, cultural, and scientific contexts. We present ten key actions for diverse, equitable and inclusive tropical ecology collaborations for conservation shorturl.at/vzNOT

We assessed the effect of landscape transformation and roadkill on snake functional diversity. We found a high functional redundancy on the road-killed 🐍🚙. At 250 meters, the amount of native forest increases the roadkill of species seeking thermoregulation onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
