VPD-based models of dead fine fuel moisture provide best estimates in a global ...
Rodrigues, Marcos; Dios, Víctor Resco de; Sil, Ângelo Filipe; Cunill Camprubí, Àngel; Fernandes, Paulo M.Dead fine fuel moisture content (FM) is one of the most important determinants of fire behavior. Fire scientists have attempted to effectively estimate FM for nearly a century, but we are still lacking broad scale evaluations of the different approaches for prediction. Here we tackle this problem by taking advantage or a recently compiled global fire behavior database (BONFIRE) gathering 1603 records of 1h (i.e...

Hyper abundant mesopredators and bird extinction in an Atlantic forest island
Galetti, Mauro; Bovendorp, Ricardo Siqueira; Fadini, Rodrigo F.; Gussoni, Carlos Otávio Araujo; Rodrigues, Marcos; Alvarez, Ariane D.Islands can serve as model systems for understanding how biological invasions affect native species. Here we & examine the negative effects of mesopredator mammals on bird richness at Anchieta Island, an 826 ha offshore island in the coast of Brazil. Anchieta Island has the highest density of mammals of the entire Atlantic forest, especially nest predators such as marmosets and coatis, introduced more than 20 y...
