Abstract The establishment of protected areas (PAs) is a central strategy for global biodiversity conservation. While the role PAs in protecting habitat has been highlighted, their effectiveness at mammal communities remains unclear. We analyzed dataset from over 8671 camera traps 23 countries on four continents that detected 321 medium‐ to large‐bodied species. found strong positive correlation between taxonomic diversity and proportion surveyed area covered by scale ( β = 0.39, 95%...
A variety of factors can affect the biodiversity tropical mammal communities, but their relative importance and directionality remain uncertain. Previous global investigations functional diversity have relied on range maps instead observational data to determine community composition. We test effects species pools, habitat heterogeneity, primary productivity human disturbance (dispersion richness) communities using largest standardized forest camera trap monitoring system, Tropical Ecology...
The spatial aggregation of species pairs often increases with the ecological similarity involved. However, way in which environmental conditions and anthropogenic activity affect relationship between remains unknown despite potential for associations to interactions, ecosystem function, extinction risk. Given that human disturbance has been shown both increase decrease among pairs, may have a role mediating these patterns. Here, we test influences habitat diversity, primary productivity,...
Abstract Reliable maps of species distributions are fundamental for biodiversity research and conservation. The International Union Conservation Nature (IUCN) range widely recognized as authoritative representations species’ geographic limits, yet they might not always align with actual occurrence data. In recent area habitat (AOH) maps, areas that have been removed from IUCN ranges to reduce commission errors, but their concordance also remains untested. We tested between occurrences...
Madagascar is a threatened global biodiversity hotspot and conservation priority, yet we lack broad-scale surveys to assess across space time. To fill this gap, collated camera trap surveys, capturing species occurrences within into single standardized database. This data set includes nine distinct protected areas of encompasses 13 subprojects, 38 arrays, 1156 sampling units (independent site per survey) two important eco-regions: western dry deciduous forest eastern humid rainforest.
