Reimagining artificial intelligence applications for Indigenous‐led community‐based wildlife monitoring: Insights from biodiversity surveys in the Warddeken Indigenous protected area in northern Australia

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
This article examines how Artificial Intelligence (AI) wildlife‐monitoring tools can be reimagined to support the Indigenous‐led Mayh community‐based monitoring program in the Warddeken Indigenous Protected Area. We show that Indigenous‐led implementation and governance are essential for ensuring AI strengthens, rather than disrupts, local stewardship ...

Toward more inclusive governance and conservation in the urbanizing Amazon

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We propose two paths toward a more inclusive approach to governance and conservation in the urbanizing Amazon: (1) grounding natural resource management programs in local‐level realities and (2) accounting for flows and transformations of place‐based relationships across the rural–urban interface.

Spatial inference of ancestor locations suggests northern refugia for canopy‐forming kelps in the Pacific Northwest

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Population genetic structure in the Pacific Northwest for (a–c) Nereocystis and (d–f) Macrocystis. Summary Pockets of the formerly glaciated Pacific coastline of North America likely remained ice‐free throughout the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). These areas may have served as refugia for terrestrial species, but less is known about their role in the ...

Towards safe and just nature conservation

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.
Nature conservation needs to address the root causes of biodiversity loss, and engage with the global, whole‐of‐society transformation necessary to reverse these trends. This is fundamentally a matter of justice for people and planet. A justice‐centred and earth system‐focused approach is essential for nature conservation to succeed.

Weight Perception Varies by Local Peer Body Size Norms Among US Adolescents

American Journal of Human Biology, Volume 38, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Biological normalcy is a framework that examines relationships between statistical norms (e.g., variation, distribution) of biological traits and normative understandings of biology at the population level. We use this biocultural framework to test whether weight perception varies by local peer body size norms (BSNorm) in a ...

Biocultural conservation as an alternative pathway for conservation: A case study of the Inclusive Conservation Initiative in northern Kenya

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 7, Page 2353-2367, July 2026.
Abstract The Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) aims to conserve 30% of the planet by 2030, yet mounting evidence indicates that current methods for preventing biodiversity loss are insufficient and often intensify unjust conditions for Indigenous Peoples and local communities.
