The collective application of shorebird tracking data to conservation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership

Advancing conservation science and practice through a geographic approach: Platforms, personnel, and partnerships

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Based on a participatory workshop involving conservation and GIS researchers and practitioners, we outline a hierarchy of six actions that should be prioritized to ensure GIScience and geography can support the new, and growing, wave of global conservation targets.

Threat Integration Model for Sagebrush (TIMS): A framework for using spatial decision support tools for strategic management of invasive annual grasses and conifers in sagebrush ecosystems

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
The Threat Integration Model for Sagebrush (TIMS) combines multiple spatial decision support tools to provide a unified, actionable map of sagebrush ecosystem conditions across the western United States. TIMS improves upon existing tools by including multiple threats in the same map (invasive annual grass [IAG] and conifer encroachment), characterizing
