Habitat destruction has driven many once-contiguous animal populations into remnant
patches of varying size and isolation. The underlying framework for the conservation of …

Dispersal is a central process in ecology and evolution. It strongly influences the dynamics
of spatially structured populations and affects evolutionary processes by sha** patterns of …

Widespread evidence of pollinator declines has led to policies supporting habitat restoration
including in agricultural landscapes. Yet, little is yet known about the effectiveness of these …

Stingless beekee** (meliponiculture) in the Yucatan is an ancient activity. Nowhere else
in the world meliponiculture reached the level of technical skills and productivity attained by …

Explaining functional connectivity among occupied habitats is crucial for understanding
metapopulation dynamics and species ecology. Landscape genetics has primarily focused …

The success of ponds constructed to restore ecological infrastructure for pond‐breeding
amphibians and benefit aquatic biodiversity depends on where and how they are built. We …

In recent years, there has been a fast development of models that adjust for imperfect
detection. These models have revolutionized the analysis of field data, and their use has …

Measuring connectivity is critical to the study of fragmented populations. The three most
commonly used types of patch connectivity measures differ substantially in how they are …

In the face of unprecedented global transformations, unravelling the intricate mechanisms
governing biodiversity patterns is imperative for predicting and interpreting species …

Patch occupancy models are extremely important and popular tools for understanding the
dynamics, and predicting the persistence, of spatially structured populations. Typically this …
