Aim Plant functional traits can influence interaction outcomes between nurse and target plants through a “functional trait match”, which occurs when the traits of nurse plants ameliorate their environment, and target plants possess traits that allow them to benefit from this ameliorated environment. We investigated how the traits of putative nurse species affect interaction outcomes across global drylands and determined the fu...
Introduction Biological invasions are major drivers of biodiversity loss worldwide, and salmonid introductions are among the most transformative events in the Southern Hemisphere. The rapid, large-scale expansion of Chinook salmon ( Oncorhynchus tshawytscha ) across South America, driven by high migratory capacity, straying rates, and genetic adaptability, constitutes an unprecedented salmonid invasion. In Patagonia, this spre...
NEOTROPICAL XENARTHRANS: a data set of occurrence of xenarthran species in the NeotropicsNARA Subscribed
Xenarthrans—anteaters, sloths, and armadillos—have essential functions for ecosystem maintenance, such as insect control and nutrient cycling, playing key roles as ecosystem engineers. Because of habitat loss and fragmentation, hunting pressure, and conflicts with domestic dogs, these species have been threatened locally, regionally, or even across their full distribution ranges. The Neotropics harbor 21 species of armadillos,...
Jaguar movement database: a GPS‐based movement dataset of an apex predator in the NeotropicsNARA Subscribed
The field of movement ecology has rapidly grown during the last decade, with important advancements in tracking devices and analytical tools that have provided unprecedented insights into where, when, and why species move across a landscape. Although there has been an increasing emphasis on making animal movement data publicly available, there has also been a conspicuous dearth in the availability of such data on large carnivo...
ATLANTIC ‐ CAMTRAPS : a dataset of medium and large terrestrial mammal communities in the Atlantic Forest of South AmericaNARA Subscribed
Our understanding of mammal ecology has always been hindered by the difficulties of observing species in closed tropical forests. Camera trapping has become a major advance for monitoring terrestrial mammals in biodiversity rich ecosystems. Here we compiled one of the largest datasets of inventories of terrestrial mammal communities for the Neotropical region based on camera trapping studies. The dataset comprises 170 surveys...
