A legal assessment of private land conservation in South America
Abstract Privately protected areas (PPAs) are a potentially innovative conservation tool. Legal recognition is necessary for their success, especially where there are institutional challenges to nature conservation, such as in South America. Although PPAs have increased in South America since the early 2000s, there is a critical information gap ...

Catalyzing sustainable fisheries management through behavior change interventions
Abstract Small‐scale fisheries are an important livelihood and primary protein source for coastal communities in many of the poorest regions in the world, yet many are overfished and thus require effective and scalable management solutions. Positive ecological and socioeconomic responses to management typically lag behind immediate costs borne by ...

Behavioral interventions to reduce demand for threatened freshwater turtles as pets
Abstract Growing demand for freshwater turtles as pets has fueled illegal trade and accelerated wild population declines, underscoring the need for theory‐based demand‐reduction interventions. We conducted a three‐part randomized controlled trial with active turtle keepers (n = 1800) in China to test conservation‐ and legality‐framed messages by ...

We collated detections of the sun bear from new and previously published camera trap studies across its range. We then analysed these detections at two different spatial scales to assess the habitat associations and diel activity of this species. We found that the sun bear is tolerant to moderate habitat disturbances. ABSTRACT Degraded tropical forests,

ABSTRACT Low conductivity, slow ion‐diffusion, and limited reactive sites are common problems in electrocatalysts and electrode materials. In this study, a complex NiTe–CoTe heterojunction with abundant Te vacancies embedded in N, P, and F co‐doped hollow carbon nanorods (NiTe1−x–CoTe1−x/NPFC) was fabricated via a simple ionic liquid‐assisted ...

Abstract Urgency to save species from extinction has prompted increased investment in law enforcement in protected areas. To date, such law enforcement has largely focused on increasing costs and reducing opportunities for offending. However, these resource‐intensive approaches are not always effective and can contribute to conflict between people and ...

We demonstrated that Anguilla japonica eDNA concentration was allometrically scaled with their body size in both the laboratory and riverine environments. Integrating body size allometry has the potential to improve population abundance estimates in the field, whereas further clarification is required for understanding eDNA production mechanisms ...
