HOW FIVE DECADES OF LAND-COVER CHANGE RESHAPED SUITABLE HABITAT FOR PUERTO RICAN TREE SPECIES

2026-03-24

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Aim</h4> Human land-use has dramatically altered the amount, quality, and connectivity of habitat for species worldwide. Understanding how these changes affect individual species is essential for predicting the overall consequences of land-use change for biodiversity. <h4>Location</h4> The Caribbean island of Puerto Rico. Forest cover on the island increased from about 18 to 45% from the l...
