Has land use pushed terrestrial biodiversity beyond the planetary boundary? A global assessment
Land use and related pressures have reduced local terrestrial biodiversity, but it is unclear
how the magnitude of change relates to the recently proposed planetary boundary (“safe …

Future effects of climate and land-use change on terrestrial vertebrate community diversity under different scenarios
T Newbold - Proceedings of the Royal Society b, 2018 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Land-use and climate change are among the greatest threats facing biodiversity, but
understanding their combined effects has been hampered by modelling and data limitations …

Fostering natural forest regeneration on former agricultural land through economic and policy interventions
Under suitable conditions, deforested land used for agricultural crops or pastures can revert
to forest through the assisted or unassisted process of natural regeneration. These naturally …

Long‐term change in the avifauna of undisturbed Amazonian rainforest: ground‐foraging birds disappear and the baseline shifts
How are rainforest birds faring in the Anthropocene? We use bird captures spanning> 35
years from 55 sites within a vast area of intact Amazonian rainforest to reveal reduced …
