Specialized Committees of International Organizations an Important Source of Organizational Autonomy
ABSTRACT Assigning the preparation of decisions to specialized committees composed of member state representatives is a widespread response to the ‘governor's dilemma’, that is, the tension between competence and control, in international organizations (IOs). We theorize a causal mechanism referring to self‐selection and agenda‐setting effects and show

First Report on the Diet of the Angolan Flying Squid (Todarodes angolensis) in New Zealand Waters
The Angolan flying squid (Todarodes angolensis) is a southerly distributed, large‐bodied ommastrephid preyed upon by many large marine vertebrates such as the southern elephant seal and deep‐sea squalid sharks. Here, we report its diet in New Zealand waters for the first time, identifying prey items from the stomach contents of 58 adults using ...

Extent, characteristics and policy applications of Key Biodiversity Areas
ABSTRACT A global standard for the identification of Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) was published 10 years ago to provide a unified set of criteria for identifying ‘sites of significance for the global persistence of biodiversity’. We review the initiative's origins, the KBA identification process, characteristics of the current network, threats, policy
