Journal ArticleDOI
Avifaunal disarray: quantifying models of the occurrence and ecological effects of a despotic bird species.
James Robertson Thomson,Martine Maron,Merilyn J. Grey,Carla Catterall,Richard E. Major,Damon L. Oliver,Mike Clarke,Richard H. Loyn,Richard H. Loyn,Ian C. Davidson,Dean Ingwersen,Doug Robinson,Alex S. Kutt,Michael A. MacDonald,Ralph Charles Mac Nally +14 more
TL;DR: Noisy miner densities increased with proximity to forest edges (higher densities on forest edges and open sites), in low rainfall areas, and in vegetation dominated by trees with blade-shaped rather than needle-shaped leaves.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial autocorrelation of assemblages of benthic invertebrates and its relationship to environmental factors in two upland rivers in southeastern Australia
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report on assemblage-level autocorrelation in the benthic-invertebrate assemblages (retained in sieves of 300 μm mesh) of riffles in two adjacent, relatively pristine rivers in southeastern Victoria, Australia (40-km reaches of the Wellington and Wonnangatta Rivers).
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluating where and how habitat restoration is undertaken for animals
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the literature to examine where and how habitat restoration is undertaken and identified key knowledge gaps as well as research and monitoring needs that can inform future restoration actions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interactions between nocturnal turbulent flux, storage and advection at an "ideal" eucalypt woodland site
Ian McHugh,Jason Beringer,Shaun Cameron Cunningham,Shaun Cameron Cunningham,Patrick J. Baker,Timothy R. Cavagnaro,Ralph Charles Mac Nally,Ross M. Thompson +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a 3-year record of net ecosystem exchange of CO2 and simultaneous measurements of CO 2 storage to ascertain the relative contributions of turbulent CO2 flux, storage, and advection (calculated as a residual quantity) to the nocturnal CO2 balance and quantify the effect of neglecting storage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seeing the woods through the saplings: Using wood density to assess the recovery of human-modified Amazonian forests
Erika Berenguer,Erika Berenguer,Toby A. Gardner,Toby A. Gardner,Joice Ferreira,Luiz E. O. C. Aragão,Luiz E. O. C. Aragão,Ralph Charles Mac Nally,Ralph Charles Mac Nally,James Robertson Thomson,Ima Célia Guimarães Vieira,Jos Barlow,Jos Barlow +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the post-disturbance recovery trajectory of an important plant functional trait, wood density, and found that the recovery of wood density in human-modified Amazonian forests is being severely disrupted due to edge effects and high liana densities.
