Integrating fossil data in ecological niche models to improve predictions of future habitat of Caribbean corals

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecological niche models (ENMs) are used to assess the abiotic preferences of species by linking their occurrences to the environmental conditions in which they live. We developed a fossil‐informed ENM framework that integrates mid‐Holocene and modern occurrences to test niche stability and reconstruct abiotic niche characteristics for four ...

Does nature shape risk preferences? Evidence from Chile, Norway, and Tanzania

open access: yesEconomic Inquiry, Volume 63, Issue 2, Page 568-590, April 2025.
Abstract Does exposure to a more risky environment affect risk preferences? Going beyond single‐case study evidence, we report results from five surveys conducted in three countries and link this with administrative data to study whether a link between exposure and preferences is detectable and widespread. We find no evidence for endogenous preferences

A Modified Gear Removal Index (GRI) Method to Support the Management of Abandoned Fishing Gear on Coralligenous Reefs

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Abandoned, Lost or otherwise Discarded Fishing Gears (ALDFG) have significant negative effects on marine ecosystems. In the Mediterranean Sea, the impact of ALDFG is particularly relevant on coralligenous reefs. The management of ALDFG focuses primarily on their removal, however this type of intervention may potentially damage the habitat, so ...

Time‐stressed Bar‐tailed Godwits exploit novel prey during migratory fuelling

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Long‐distance migratory birds breeding in the Arctic face challenges as earlier snowmelt shifts the timing of vital resources. To keep up with these advancements, birds will need to modify their migration. Higher fuelling rates during stopover have been identified as a critical mechanism for accelerating migration, but this requires adequate food ...

Geolocation reveals wintering sites of near‐extinct Caucasian breeding sea duck

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
We obtained 14 sets of full annual cycle geolocator tracks from 13 individual nesting female Velvet Scoter Melanitta fusca from the relict Caucasian population at their last remaining breeding site, Lake Tabatskuri, Georgia. Results showed that females wintered at widespread discrete localities in Ukraine, around the coasts of the Crimean Peninsula and
