I know I’m out of social media lately and when I’m in I may be too philosophical; but I’m going through a tough moment for the last year+ and I’m too blessed and happy to have such a wonderful group of people surrounding me #PALAB #ErandiWeMissedYou #tropicalecology #palaeoecology

Great to see our new review on the causes and consequences of tropical insect declines out in Nature Reviews Biodiversity. 🪰🪲🐜🐛🐝🦋 It was a pleasure working with an international team of amazing tropical entomologists! 🧑‍🔬
www.nature.com/articles/s44...
Ecological effects of declining insect diversity and abundance. In tropical forests, declining insect populations will have substantial effects on plant community dynamics, resulting in reduced biodiversity, alterations to functional community composition of plants and ultimately reduced nutrient cycling and carbon sequestration. Reductions in the abundance of insects will also have knock-on effects on insectivorous animals such as bats, birds and lizards. In forest-adjacent tropical communities, unequal patterns of decline across the trophic pyramid will result in a predator release effect on pest species, leading to reduced food security and increased outbreaks of insect-vectored disease in both humans and livestock. Increasing temperatures and changing rainfall patterns may affect pollinators, further exacerbating reductions in yields of locally and globally important crops. ‘Acquisitive’ leaf traits are those that maximize growth, such as high specific leaf area and leaf nitrogen content.

Connections that bind us:

The forested lands of indigenous Amazon people export their water to southern Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Paraguay, Argentina and Uruguay.

Their water powers the continent and feeds the world.
