Using the capabilities approach to achieve people‐centered conservation
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Top‐down interventions carried out by state and nonstate institutions to conserve biodiversity and improve the lives of forest‐proximate people (FPP) in the Global South tend to reflect economistic understandings of human well‐being. More progressive and people‐centered conservation projects are guided by normative visions of how the world ...

Optimizing biodiversity offsetting for habitat succession and colonization dynamics
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Biodiversity offsetting aims to compensate for ecological losses from development through conservation and restoration. However, its long‐term outcomes under repeated impact–offset cycles remain uncertain. Using a conceptual forest succession model, we evaluated how offset outcomes are affected by interactions among compensation scale ...

Pest‐preservation paradox among insects
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.The pest‐preservation paradox is a non‐binary perspective that insects range from those that are harmful and requiring management on the one side, to those requiring conservation intervention on the opposite end of the spectrum. Importantly, the vast majority of insects occur somewhere in the center of the two extremes, and their position along the ...

The obsolescence of protected area categories in a polycrisis world
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Current global conservation models face significant limitations in addressing the global polycrisis, and the constraints of the International Union for Conservation of Nature protected area (PA) classification system are part of the issue. The principles of the new conservation paradigm—governance, equity, and interculturality—are not viable ...

Risk reduction, rangeland use, and the future of human–carnivore coexistence
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Efforts to reduce livestock losses to large carnivores are widely regarded as essential for promoting human–carnivore coexistence. Predator‐proof enclosures, compensation programs, improved livestock guarding, and real‐time predator alert systems can reduce depredation and retaliatory killing while enhancing pastoralist livelihoods.

A framework for integrating resilience indicators into risk assessments
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Globally, ecosystems are increasingly threatened by climate change and human pressures, yet ecosystem risk assessments predominantly emphasize exposure to stressors while overlooking intrinsic ecosystem resilience—the capacity to absorb and recover from disturbances.

Effects of climate change on marine biodiversity on the western Atlantic coast
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract The current climate crisis, driven by greenhouse gas emissions, threatens global biodiversity, including that in marine ecosystems. However, projections for the western Atlantic Ocean that jointly quantify species richness and endemism while accounting for spatially biased and incomplete occurrence data remain limited.

, 2007 采用模拟降雨试验方法对黄土坡面产流动态变化过程进行研究,取得了如下结果:(1)不同雨强条件下,坡面径流率随降雨过程的动态变化可用对数相关方程描述,5-10min之间径流率随降雨过程的变化幅度较大,以后变缓,并趋于基本稳定状态;(2)不同坡度条件下,坡面径流深随降雨强度的动态变化可用线性相关方程进行描述,坡面径流深随降雨强度的增加而急剧增大;(3)不同雨强条件下,坡面径流深随坡度的动态变化总体可用抛物线相关方程进行描述,25°左右是径流深随坡度变化的转折点;(4)不同雨强条件下 ...

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Protected areas cannot halt biodiversity loss in isolation; integrating them with surrounding human‐dominated landscapes is critical. However, this integration is challenged by substantial landscape heterogeneity at protected area borders, making it difficult to determine cross‐border changes in ecosystem service provision.
