Cognitive and institutional barriers to effective natural resource management under global change
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Many of the most challenging decisions facing natural resource managers today can be understood as time dependent. The concept of time‐dependent decisions is useful when considering natural resource management decisions that are characterized by nonstationarity in the underlying ecological system, uncertainty surrounding key ecological ...

Biodiversity informatics: automated approaches for documenting global biodiversity patterns and processes [PDF]
Bioinformatics, 2009 Abstract Motivation: Data about biodiversity have been scattered in different formats in natural history collections, survey reports and the literature. A central challenge for the biodiversity informatics community is to provide the means to share and rapidly synthesize these data and the knowledge they provide us to build an easily ...

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.We present the first ecological application of InsectMorphoAI, a tool estimating curvilinear body length and body volume from two‐dimensional fly images. Applying this approach to tachinid flies from a Mediterranean forest near Rome, Italy, we quantified species composition, abundance, body size, body proportions, and biomass proxies in assemblages ...

An AI‐assisted workflow for generating historical species distributions from avian museum specimens
Ibis, EarlyView.The Earth's biodiversity is changing rapidly due to human activities. Natural history collections could help us better understand how and why biodiversity is changing but are grossly under‐used in this respect. Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform this situation by enabling us to unlock data associated with museum specimens more ...

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Forest clearings support butterfly communities comparable to mountainous grasslands in alpha‐diversity and conservation value, yet remain compositionally distinct. Generalized linear models (GLMs) showed three key habitat predictors shaping multifaceted diversity and community composition: herb/grass height, flowerhead abundance and elevation.
