Responses of tropical bats to habitat fragmentation, logging, and deforestation (2015)
Book Chapter

Land-use change is a key driver of the global biodiversity crisis and a particularly serious threat to tropical biodiversity. Throughout the tropics, the staggering pace of deforestation, logging, and conversion of forested habitat to other land uses...

Assessing the structure of a Neotropical bat community using acoustic monitoring techniques (2015)
Journal Article
Estrada-Villegas, S., Meyer, C., McGill, B., & Kalko, E. (2015). Assessing the structure of a Neotropical bat community using acoustic monitoring techniques. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 138(3), 1905. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.4933991

Determining the structure and composition of tropical communities is challenging because some species are rare or hard to detect. Within Neotropical bats, aerial insectivores have been systematically undersampled because they avoid mist nets, the tra...

Trait-related responses to habitat fragmentation in Amazonian bats (2015)
Journal Article

Summary:

Understanding how interspecific variation in functional traits influences species’ capacity to persist in fragments and use patches in fragmented landscapes is fundamental for the creation of effective conservation plans. This study uses... Read More about Trait-related responses to habitat fragmentation in Amazonian bats.
