Evaluating a structured expert elicitation approach for adaptive conservation management based on lessons from five years in practice

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Adaptive management of threatened species relies on having ex ante estimates of species’ responses to different interventions. Structured expert elicitation is often used to generate these estimates, but comparisons of these expert‐predicted outcomes with observed results are rare.

Subspecies taxonomy reflects social and geographic patterns of taxonomic effort in tetrapods

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Subspecies have been used in conservation biology to account for intraspecific patterns in genetic diversity, which is crucial to long‐term population viability. Although over 3200 subspecies are currently assessed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List, their biological relevance remains controversial.

Comparing screening outcomes for private sector nature‐related assessments based on national and global biodiversity datasets

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In response to demand for better biodiversity stewardship from the private sector, frameworks such as the Taskforce on Nature‐related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) have been developed to help companies assess, manage, and disclose their nature‐related impacts, dependencies, risks, and opportunities.

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 ...

Infrastructure as Inherited Knowledge: Artificial Intelligence and the Governance of Long‐Life Infrastructure

Journal of Critical Infrastructure Policy, Volume 8, Issue 1, Spring/Summer 2027.
ABSTRACT Epistemic orphaning, responsibility drift, loss of institutional memory, and non‐stationarity are not new problems in infrastructure governance—they have accompanied long‐life infrastructure throughout its history. What artificial intelligence changes is not the existence of these problems but their scale, opacity, and the structural ...

Competitive Anion Coordination Modulates Anode Interfacial Chemistry for Wide‐Temperature Sodium Batteries

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Sodium‐ion batteries (SIBs) offer a promising, cost‐effective alternative for large‐scale energy storage due to the abundance of sodium. However, their practical deployment is challenged by sluggish interfacial kinetics and unstable interphase formation, which severely limit performance across wide temperature ranges. Here, we demonstrate that

Conservative roots confer a larger microbial carbon pump efficacy than acquisitive roots by regulating microbial life‐history strategy

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2617-2627, August 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Root activity creates unique microbial hotspots in the rhizosphere by influencing the metabolic activities of surrounding soil microorganisms, profoundly regulating the dynamics of soil organic carbon (SOC). However, how root economic strategies affect the formation and
