@ccambientalex @DianaMorantR @CienciaGob @FPUinvestiga Lamentablemente, tendrás que irte a otro país si quieres hacer un doctorado, como hicimos muchos. Para el sistema es más importante memorizar como un robot que pensar, resolver problemas y ser proactivo.

What a great and valuable article! It is a must-read for anyone interested in winner-loser dynamics in human-dominated tropical landscapes. Thanks @Bxpinho, @FelipePLMelo and coauthors for this brilliant manuscript.

Our results highlight the high heterogenity of effects of human disturbances on tropical plants and the threat posed to them by fire and exotic species. This study cannot be possible without the support of DGAPA @UNAM_MX and my advisors Dr. Jorge Meave and @victorarroyorod

We analyzed 4 major human impacts on tropical forests: fires, defaunation, exotic and invasive species and logging. For fires, we found that they have strong negative effects on abundance and diversity, but neither recurrence nor time since last fire played an important role

Very happy to have been part of this beautiful and timely review, in which we reviewed the biotic and abiotic consequences of slash-and-burn agriculture 🔥🌱. It was brilliantly led by Jakelyne Bezerra @jakelyne_b!
🌟Excited to share our publication! We studied abiotic & biotic effects of slash-and-burn agriculture at different cycle stages, analyzing both local & landscape scales🌿Key insights for balancing tradition & sustainability in tropical regions! Read here:

Thanks to UNAM (@UNAM_MX & @fciencias) for the postdoctoral funding, to Universidad Veracruzana (@ComunicacionUV) & INIFOR for their financial support in the final process & to my mentor Dr. Jorge Meave, with whom we had very fruitful discussions that led to this publication.
