Bird communities in a selectively logged tropical montane forest are dominated by small, low-elevation species

The paper examines how selective logging and climate change affect bird communities in tropical montane forests, finding shifts toward smaller, lower-elevation species in logged areas.

Patterns of secondary invasion in the understory of exotic, invasive timber stands

The paper examines patterns of secondary invasion in the understory of exotic invasive tree stands in the Western Ghats Shola Sky Islands, finding strong associations between Eucalyptus and Lantana camara invasions, and environmental factors influencing these patterns.

Abiotic niche predictors of long-term trends in body mass and survival of Eastern Himalayan birds

The paper uses an 11-year mark-recapture dataset to show how temperature-humidity niche shifts in logged forests affect body mass and survival of understorey insectivorous birds.

The effect of selective logging on microclimates, arthropod abundance and the foraging behaviour of Eastern Himalayan birds

This study examines how selective logging affects microclimates, arthropod abundance, and foraging behavior of Eastern Himalayan birds, finding altered microclimates and foraging success linked to habitat modification.
