Landscape influences bat suppression of pine processionary moth: Implications f...
Augusto, Ana Margarida; Pereira, S.; Rodrigues, S.; Marques, F.; Aizpurua, O.; Alberdi, A.; Jones, G.; Razgour, O.; Marques, T.A.; Russo, D.; Rebelo, H.Bats provide important ecosystem services, particularly in agriculture, yet integrating bat management into conservation plans remains challenging. Some landscape features considerably influence bat presence, diversity, and ecosystem service provision. Understanding the relationship between landscape structure, composition, pest suppression, and ecosystem services is crucial. We modelled areas where bats most e...
Bat diversity boosts ecosystem services: Evidence from pine processionary moth ...
Augusto, Ana Margarida; Raposeira, H.; Horta, P.; Mata, V.A.; Aizpurua, O.; Alberdi, A.; Jones, G.; Razgour, O.; Santos, S.A.P.; Russo, D.; Rebelo, H.Coniferous forests contribute to the European economy; however, they have experienced a decline since the late 1990s due to an invasive pest known as the pine processionary moth, Thaumetopoea pityocampa. The impacts of this pest are increasingly exacerbated by climate change. Traditional control strategies involving pesticides have had negative effects on public health and the environment. Instead, forest manag...
