1/5 #Deforestation is leading to increasingly #fragmented landscapes🌲
Aim: How do #bats respond to changes in local habitat quality and fragmentation of the wider landscape via investigation of 3 holistic diversity facets #taxonomic, #functional, #phylogenetic🦇

#WBTC #Land1
2/5 Data from #BDFFP in Central #Amazon 🇧🇷 largest & longest running ecological (+40 y/s) study of #fragmentation

• Field work by: @adria_baucells @RicardoNature
• When: 2011-2013
• Sites: 33
• Acoustic data: 281,664 calls
#Bat Species: 21 🦇
• Families: 5
#WBTC2 #Land1
3/5 #Taxonomic, #functional & #phylogenetic metrics based on #acoustic data were related to local vegetation descriptors & landscape-scale habitat composition & configuration variables using #GLMMs.

#WBTC2 #Land1
4/5 Preliminary results ✅#Figure shows summary of #ModelAveraging. Symbol size is proportional to the variation explained by the respective predictor variable based on #HierarchicalPartitioning. Colour denotes direction of the relationship (Black: +ve, White: -ve)

#WBTC2 #Land1
5/5 Aerial insectivorous bat #diversity is affected by local and landscape scale habitat attributes in a scale-dependant manner.
Next steps: assess ensemble & species-specific responses via bat activity and determine scale dependency.
🎉Thanks & any questions 🦇😀
