Five lessons to guide more effective biodiversity conservation message framing

Conservation Biology, 2020
Communication and advocacy approaches that influence attitudes and behaviors are key to addressing conservation problems, and the way an issue is framed can affect how people view, judge, and respond to an issue.

Coupled Above‐ and Belowground Ecosystem Stability Worldwide

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Are the worlds above and below our feet in sync? This global exploration reveals an entangled fate between above‐ and belowground ecosystem stability. It identifies arid regions as hotspots for this coupling and highlights temperature stability as a vital safeguard for maintaining ecosystem balance across our warming planet.

Genetic Differentiation among Subspecies of Banksia nivea (Proteaceae) Associated with Expansion and Habitat Specialization

Diversity, 2022
Subspecies are traditionally defined using phenotypic differences associated with different geographical areas. Yet patterns of morphological and genetic variation may not coincide and thereby fail to reflect species’ evolutionary history.

Bioenergy Cropping Reduces the Spatiotemporal Scaling of Soil Bacterial Biodiversity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Consistent with patterns observed in plant and animal communities, soil bacterial communities exhibit significant species–time–area and phylogenetic–time–area relationships independent of nested structure. Bioenergy cropping significantly reduces the spatiotemporal scaling rates, particularly in sandy loam soils.

Estimating the Abundance of a Cryptic, Endangered Marsupial, Mala (Lagorchestes hirsutus) Using Microsatellite and Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Genotyping Panels

Ecology and Evolution
Developing high‐quality, non‐invasive population monitoring techniques is important for endangered species that are difficult to trap or susceptible to capture myopathy. One such species is the mala (Lagorchestes hirsutus, Central Australian subspecies),
