Biocultural approaches to well-being and sustainability indicators across scales.

TL;DR: It is argued that biocultural approaches, in combination with methods for synthesizing across evidence from multiple sources, are critical to developing metrics that facilitate linkages across scales and dimensions that help bridge the divide between ecosystems and human well-being.
Journal ArticleDOI

The database of the PREDICTS (Projecting Responses of Ecological Diversity In Changing Terrestrial Systems) project

Lawrence N. Hudson, +573 more
TL;DR: The PREDICTS project as discussed by the authors provides a large, reasonably representative database of comparable samples of biodiversity from multiple sites that differ in the nature or intensity of human impacts relating to land use.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogeny and Divergence Times of Lemurs Inferred with Recent and Ancient Fossils in the Tree

TL;DR: This is the first study to combine morphological and DNA sequence data from extinct and extant primates to infer evolutionary relationships and divergence times, and the results shed new light on the tempo of lemur evolution and the efficacy of combined phylogenetic analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Effects of Habitat Disturbance on Lemurs at Ranomafana National Park, Madagascar

TL;DR: The results suggest that some lemurs, including folivores, may cope with anthropogenic disturbance better than others, including some frugivores.
