Aim Frugivorous birds provide crucial seed-dispersal functions in terrestrial ecosystems. However, the impact of climate change on plant–avian frugivore interactions remains unclear due to past meth...

Landim et al. show that seed-dispersal interactions require about two decades to functionally recover in tropical forests in Ecuador, but the recovery time of seed-dispersal functions is delayed in pa...

We show that trait-matching affects avian frugivory on a global scale, and hence, birds with contrasting beaks and diets respond differently to the size and lipid content of fruits. Also, morphologic....

In our latest post Valentin Graf, PhD student at the Senckenberg Biodiversity and Climate Research Centre in Frankfurt, presents his work ‘Individual behavior shapes patterns of bird-mediated seed dis...

Samira El Ouassil erklärt, warum Erzählungen uns helfen können die Klimakrise besser zu verstehen und zu bekämpfe. Ein Gespräch über Narrative und Psychologie.

An estimated area of 215 million hectares has the potential for natural forest regeneration across tropical forested countries and biomes, representing an above-ground carbon sequestration potential o...
