Collecting data from local sources markedly further strengthens global biodiversity databases by adding species not previously included in international datasets. Furthermore, the addition of these data helps to understand spatial and temporal biases that potentially influence abundance trends at both national and global levels.

In the current era of large‐scale biodiversity monitoring, our study highlights the risks posed by missing data and the importance of cautious imputation when interpreting biodiversity trends. We show that, in many cases, retaining gaps may lead to more accurate trend estimates than applying imputation.

Industrial oil palm plantations threaten biodiversity in Southeast Asia, yet some native species are highly adaptable within these environments. Our study tracked four male leopard cats (Prionailurus javanensis) with GPS collars in the Kinabatangan floodplain, Sabah, revealing average home ranges of 8.60 km² (95% MCP) and 5.39 km² (95% a‐LoCoH), with ...

Threats to cycad biocultural heritage in the Amami Islands, Japan
The central point we seek to frame in this article is that the increasing infestations of cycad aulacaspis scale in the Amami guntō existentially threaten not only the islands' sotetsu but rather entire cultural systems and natural ecologies that have developed around these plants.

The Exposure of Australia's Housing Stock to Climate Risks
ABSTRACT Climate change has significantly influenced the intensity and frequency of extreme weather events impacting the globe, including Australia. This has implications for various sectors, including the housing market. Utilising postcode‐level climate risk data—including for cyclones, floods, heatwaves, water stress, and wildfires—and data from the ...
