Extinction Debt Paid Off: The Demise of the European Polecat (Mustela putorius) in NE Iberia

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We studied a vanishing polecat population for a decade, until its ultimate demise, using camera trap and roadkill data, landscape descriptors and dietary and toxicological analyses.Polecat favoured farmland and avoided forests and water bodies occupied by the invasive American mink.

Scientists’ warning on the global destruction of rock outcrop ecosystems

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Rock outcrops are geological formations that harbor a highly specialized biota adapted to harsh environmental conditions that differ from their surrounding landscapes. They are globally distributed, especially in old, highly weathered landscapes, and can function as habitat islands containing high levels of endemism and distinct evolutionary ...

CONDUCTING SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH ON THE INFLUENCE OF TRACE ELEMENTS ON THE VITAL ACTIVITY OF WINTER WHEAT IN ARID CONDITIONS OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION

open access: yesSiberian Journal of Life Sciences and Agriculture
Background. Winter wheat is a key crop in most farms of the Volgograd region and the south of Russia. However, despite the high annual gross harvest of wheat grain in the region (4 million tons or more), its stabilization and increase in production are ...

A global perspective on the annual cycles of whimbrels

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Comparative analyses are central to understanding broad‐scale patterns in avian ecology, yet their application is often constrained by fragmented and uneven data availability. Recent advances in tracking technology have generated unprecedented insights into shorebird movements, resulting in numerous studies on single populations or flyways.

Forest cover influences the movement and behaviour of GPS‐tagged Golden Eagle (Aquila chrysaetos): insights from flight characteristics and perch site selection

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Habitat selection can vary substantially depending on species‐specific and behaviour‐specific resource requirements. Identifying these resources and gaining a detailed understanding of their importance can inform effective conservation actions and contribute to assessing the impacts of environmental change.

Fragmented grasslands in different landscape structures provide different opportunities for cavity‐nesting Hymenoptera

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Grassland fragmentation effects on cavity‐nesting Hymenoptera are habitat‐specific. Isolated sand steppe fragments are associated with higher brood‐cell abundance. In loess steppes, higher flower frequency increases bee brood‐cell production and parasitoid activity. Abstract The global decline in insects threatens ecosystem functioning, but the drivers

DENDROLOGICAL COLLECTIONS OF THE KULUNDA CLUSTER FEDERAL RESEARCH CENTER OF AGROECOLOGY

open access: yesSiberian Journal of Life Sciences and Agriculture
Background. In 2016, the Kulunda Arboretum was given the status of a specially protected natural area of federal significance. A long-term array of data on the introduction potential of woody plants in collections forms the basis for regulating ...

Biodiversity Finance: A Systematic Review and Interpretative Framework for an Emerging Research Frontier

open access: yesJournal of Economic Surveys, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The accelerating loss of biodiversity and ecosystem degradation are increasingly recognized as economically material phenomena with implications for financial markets and financial stability. Yet biodiversity finance remains fragmented across environmental economics, sustainable finance, corporate disclosure, risk management, and conservation ...

Unravelling the Intraspecific Variation in Drought Responses in Seedlings of European Black Pine (Pinus Nigra J.F. Arnold)

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding intraspecific variation in drought tolerance is essential for predicting the adaptive capacity of forest species under climate change. Yet, the molecular basis of this variation remains poorly understood in ecologically and economically important conifers.
