Bibliometric investigation of the integration of animal personality in conservation contexts
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 2, April 2023., 2023 Abstract Consistent individual differences in behavior, commonly termed animal personality, are a widespread phenomenon across taxa that have important consequences for fitness, natural selection, and trophic interactions. Animal personality research may prove useful in several conservation contexts, but which contexts remains to be determined.

Combined effects of life‐history traits and human impact on extinction risk of freshwater megafauna
Conservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 643-653, April 2021., 2021 Abstract Megafauna species are intrinsically vulnerable to human impact. Freshwater megafauna (i.e., freshwater animals ≥30 kg, including fishes, mammals, reptiles, and amphibians) are subject to intensive and increasing threats. Thirty‐four species are listed as critically endangered on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).

The species awareness index as a conservation culturomics metric for public biodiversity awareness
Conservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 472-482, April 2021., 2021 Abstract Although threats to global biodiversity are well known, slowing current rates of biodiversity loss remains a challenge. The Aichi targets set out 20 goals on which the international community should act to alleviate biodiversity decline, 1 of which (Target 1) aims to raise public awareness of the importance of biodiversity.

Trends and knowledge gaps in field research investigating effects of anthropogenic noise
Conservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 1, Page 115-129, February 2021., 2021 Abstract Anthropogenic noise is a globally widespread sensory pollutant, recognized as having potentially adverse effects on function, demography, and physiology in wild animals. Human population growth and associated changes in urbanization, transportation, and resource extraction all contribute to anthropogenic noise and are predicted to increase in ...

Climate suitability as a predictor of conservation translocation failure
Conservation Biology, Volume 34, Issue 6, Page 1473-1481, December 2020., 2020 Abstract The continuing decline and loss of biodiversity has caused an increase in the use of interventionist conservation tools, such as translocation. However, many translocation attempts fail to establish viable populations, with poor release site selection often flagged as an inhibitor of success.
