Evaluating methods for high‐resolution, national‐scale seagrass mapping in Google Earth Engine
Marine habitat mapping using satellite imagery can provide baseline and monitoring data across large spatial scales and in remote locations globally. This study evaluates how key methodological choices influence the accuracy of open‐source (for non‐commercial use), cloud‐based satellite mapping workflows for seagrass meadows in the Maldives.

Targeted conservation measures are contingent on robust knowledge of spatio‐temporal animal distribution in areas of interest. We explore unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) transect monitoring as a novel method for standardized digital aerial surveys of marine megafauna by investigating the fine‐resolution spatio‐temporal distribution of harbour porpoises ...

Nesting ecology of an ice‐associated seabird, Kittlitz's murrelet, at the northern edge of its range
We studied the Kittlitz's murrelet, an ice‐associated seabird of conservation concern, at the northern edge of its range. Over a 2‐year period, we estimated nest density and success at 2 sites, captured and telemetered nesting murrelets, and tested the use of a thermal camera to improve nest detection.

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract A long‐standing theory in biogeography is that stronger biotic interactions at lower latitudes select for better‐defended phenotypes. However, greater environmental variability at temperate latitudes may also shape defensive strategies by increasing temporal or local ...

Our research leverages a natural, ecosystem‐scale experiment and cutting‐edge molecular isotope approaches to reveal that coral reef food web structure and energy flow can remain consistent across a gradient of human disturbance. Abstract Habitat degradation and overexploitation are key drivers of biodiversity loss globally.
