Logging alters tropical forest structure, while conversion to agriculture reduces biodiversity and functioning

C. J. Marsh, E. C. Turner, B. W. Blonder, B. Bongalov, S. Both, R. S. Cruz, D. M. O. Elias, D. Hemprich-Bennett, P. Jotan, V. Kemp, U. H. Kritzler, S. Milne, D. T. Milodowski, S. L. Mitchell, M. Montoya Pillco, , A. Hector

The paper analyzes the impacts of logging and conversion to oil palm on tropical forest structure, biodiversity, and functioning in Borneo, finding that logging affects structure more than biodiversity, while conversion has greater impacts on biodiversity and functioning.

Out of thin air: surveying tropical bat roosts through air sampling of eDNA

N. R. Garrett, J. Watkins, C. Francis, N. B. Simmons, N. V. Ivanova, A. Naaum, A. Briscoe, R. Drinkwater, E. L. Clare

This study uses airborne eDNA to survey bat roosts in the neotropics, confirming bat presence in 9/12 roosts and detecting new species.

Selective logging shows no impact on the dietary breadth of the fawn leaf-nosed bat (Hipposideros cervinus)

D. R. Hemprich-Bennett, V. A. Kemp, J. Blackman, O. T. Lewis, M. J. Struebig, H. Bernard, S. J. Rossiter, E. L. Clare

The study examines the diet of fawn leaf-nosed bats across logging disturbance gradients in Borneo, finding no significant impact on dietary breadth.

Measuring biodiversity from DNA in the air

E. L. Clare, C. K. Economou, F. J. Bennett, C. E. Dyer, K. Adams, B. McRobie, R. Drinkwater, J. E. Littlefair

This study demonstrates that DNA from terrestrial animals can be collected from the air, identifying 25 species including endangered and invasive taxa, and highlights the potential of airDNA for global terrestrial biodiversity monitoring.

Dung beetles as vertebrate samplers: a test of high throughput analysis of dung beetle iDNA

R. Drinkwater, E. L. Clare, A. Y. C. Chung, S. J. Rossiter, E. M. Slade

This study tests dung beetles as vertebrate samplers by sequencing mammal DNA in their guts, showing DNA can be retrieved up to 10 hours post-feeding and multiple taxa identified with high confidence.

Altered structure and stability of bat-prey interaction networks in logged tropical forests revealed by metabarcoding

D. R. Hemprich-Bennett, V. A. Kemp, J. Blackman, M. J. Struebig, O. T. Lewis, S. J. Rossiter, E. L. Clare

This study shows that logging reduces prey diversity in insectivorous bats and alters their interaction networks, making ecosystems less stable.

Assessing the impact of taxon resolution on network structure, with implication for comparative ecology

D. R. Hemprich-Bennett, H. F. M. Oliveira, S. C. Le Comber, S. J. Rossiter, E. L. Clare

The paper assesses how varying taxon resolution affects ecological network structure and shows that small changes in resolution can significantly alter key metrics like robustness and nestedness.

Counting with DNA in metabarcoding studies: how should we convert sequence reads to dietary data?

B. Deagle, A. C. Thomas, J. C. McInnes, L. J. Clarke, E. J. Vesterinen, E. L. Clare, T. R. Kartzinel, J. P. Eveson

This study evaluates methods for converting DNA sequence reads to dietary data in metabarcoding, finding that relative read abundance provides a more accurate diet estimate than occurrence data.
