Extreme site fidelity in long‐distance migratory shorebirds in Australia and potential implications for conservation

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Site fidelity is the tendency for animals to repeatedly return to the same locations, either within or between years. Site fidelity enables animals to utilize knowledge of previously visited locations, including assessments of seasonal variations in health and mortality risks (e.g., predation), resource availability, and social benefits such ...

Comparative species distribution model framework for marine conservation and its application to loggerhead turtles in the Mediterranean

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modeling species distributions in dynamic pelagic environments remains challenging, particularly for wide‐ranging and highly mobile species when there is limited guidance on model performance. This limitation constrains the effective use of species distribution models (SDMs) in marine conservation, where robust and transferable predictions are

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

open access: yesConservation 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.

Insights from three decades of IUCN Red List assessments catalyzing shark, ray, and chimaera conservation

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species is a critical measure of global aquatic and terrestrial biodiversity status. It is also the basis for the Red List Index, which tracks extinction risk over time.

圈养亚洲象春季昼间行为时间分配及活动节律

open access: yes野生动物学报, 2014
2012年1月13日~5月8日,采用瞬时扫描法、全事件取样法及目标取样法对昆明动物园4只圈养大象(3♀1♂)的昼间行为时间分配及活动节律进行了观察与分析。结果表明:圈养亚洲象在取食行为、运动行为、站立行为、休息行为、交往行为、情绪行为和其他行为中主要以取食和运动2类行为为主,除怀孕象运动(14%)少于取食(67%)外,其余都是运动行为时间分配大于取食行为时间分配,其他行为分配时间均不超过10%。在工作日和节假日雄象的运动行为和取食行为大致相似,而雌象表现为在工作日的运动行为多于节假日,取食行为则相反 ...

Structured decision‐making as a framework to incorporate social equity into conservation decisions

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Many conservation challenges require negotiating trade‐offs between the needs of different actors. Global frameworks such as the Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework explicitly call for diverse participation and social equity in conservation decision‐making.

人工圈养紫貂(Martes zibellina)行为谱构建及行为节律研究

open access: yes野生动物学报, 2015
2014年5月~2015年2月,采用全事件取样法和扫描取样法(scan sampling method)对人工圈养的8只紫貂进行行为学观察,定义了休息、运动、采食、排泄、警戒以及其他行为等行为谱。通过对雌雄紫貂在不同季节行为节律研究发现:除了睡眠行为、卧息行为和玩耍行为外,其他行为在时间分配上均表现出雄性高于雌性,卧息行为和其他行为时间分配雌雄之间差异性显著 ...

A methodological assessment and reflection on member checking as a form of participant validation for conservation social science

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Qualitative approaches are increasingly applied in conservation social science, yet methodological reflection remains limited. Member checking, a process of returning findings to participants for feedback, is widely recognized outside conservation as a means to enhance rigor and reciprocity, but it is rarely reported in conservation research ...

Using the capabilities approach to achieve people‐centered conservation

open access: yesConservation 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 ...
