(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1987)Questions of successional pattern and causality have been central concerns in vegetation ecology. In this paper we address the limits of the overextended models of Connell and Slatyer by discussing problems encountered in ...
-
(Wiley, 2022)Mechanisms that reliably and efficiently guide practitioners to find relevant evidence are urgent for conservation decision-making in Chilean Patagonia. The objective of this study was to systematically collect, characterize, ...
-
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1992)This study documents the stem size and age-structure in forests dominated by different species of Nothofagus in Torres del Paine National Park (51° S), in the Chilean Patagonian region. We also explored the relationship ...
-
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2007-06)Since the 19th century, 41% of the land on Chiloe´ Island (418500S, 738400W) in Chile was cleared. Following clearing and burning, much of the converted land remains in sparse shrub cover. We hypothesized that the arrested ...
-
(BLACKWELL, 2006-02)Aim We ask whether contemporary forests of the Chilean Coastal Range can be considered to be direct and conservative descendants of pre-Pleistocene palaeofloras that occurred in southern South America from the Palaeogene ...
-
(2013)Background: Birds are important mobile link species that contribute to landscape-scale patterns by means of pollination, seed dispersal, and predation. Birds are often associated with habitats modified by small mammal ...

Breeding biology of the Thorn-tailed Rayadito (Furnariidae) in south-temperate rainforests of Chile (COOPER ORNITHOLOGICAL SOC, 2005-02)We conducted a study of the breeding biology of the Thorn-tailed Rayadito (Aphrastura spinicauda) in secondary forests on the continental island of Chiloe (42degreesS), southern Chile. Rayaditos are small insectivorous ...
-
(SOCIEDAD BIOLOGIA CHILE, 2006-06)Plant breeding systems are considered to reflect species' life history characteristics, selection due to biotic or abiotic factors, pollination conditions, or a combination of these. Reproductive systems may vary over ...

(Taylor & Francis, 2001)The distribution of Chilean temperate forests has been greatly disrupted by human activities, mainly through logging, land clearing for agriculture, and replacement of native ...
-
(British Ecological Society, 2013)1. Forest fragmentation may intensify recruitment limitation through impacts on seed production, dissemination and seedling establishment processes. In an ancient mosaic of fog-dependent rain forest patches on coastal ...
-
(BLACKWELL, 2005-04)Species richness and taxonomic composition of pollinator assemblages are documented for 26 plant species from temperate rain forests of northern Chiloe Island, southern Chile (42 degrees 30'S). We investigated the patterns ...
-
(SPRINGER, 2006-01)Carbon-based secondary compounds (CBSCs), such as phenols or tannins, have been considered as one of the most important and general chemical barriers of woody plants against a diverse array of herbivores. Herbivory has ...
-
(Sociedad de Biología de Chile, 2008-06)El flujo de entrada de nitrógeno (N) en ecosistemas de bosques templados de la Isla de Chiloé puede ocurrir en una proporción importante vía fijación no simbiótica (FNS). Debido a que este proceso es llevado a cabo por ...
-
(2007)The landscape (matrix) surrounding habitat fragments critically affects the biodiversity of those fragments due to biotic interchange and physical effects. However, to date, there have been only a limited number of studies ...
-
(SOC BIOLOGIA CHILE, 2010-02-05)La Estación Biológica Senda Darwin (EBSD) constituye un centro de investigación inmerso en el paisaje rural del norte de la Isla de Chiloé (42º S), donde fragmentos del bosque siempreverde original coexisten con praderas ...
