ABSTRACT The move from unipolarity to a fluid and contested multipolar world order has significantly changed the way African nations form national security policy due to changes in the nature of the strategic environment of those states. Much of the literature has focused on how the actions of major world powers ‐ the United States, China and Russia ...

Abstract Human infrastructures are among the most impactful wildlife threats. Although estimates of animal mortality by these structures exist over a given period, they typically do not account for several levels of imperfect detection (i.e. difference between recorded and true mortality).

Individual bird identification by modelling temporal structure in bioacoustic embeddings
Abstract Identifying individual animals from vocalizations is an emerging research area in computational bioacoustics. This non‐invasive approach reduces reliance on physical capture and tagging for wildlife monitoring. Recent advances in this area leverage deep learning and bioacoustic foundation models adapted from species‐level classifiers. However,

Estimating the total mortality of seabirds following a marine heat wave
Abstract Marine heat waves detrimentally affect a range of marine species, including seabirds, and are increasing in frequency and severity. When thousands of dead seabirds wash up on beaches, the public becomes concerned. However, the number of dead birds recorded on beaches is only a fraction of the total mortality; most birds perish at sea.

Assessing and strengthening community‐based coastal governance
Abstract Community‐based coastal governance is essential for biodiversity conservation and sustainable livelihoods, yet many communities continue to face significant challenges in establishing and sustaining effective governance systems. We sought to improve understanding of the current status of community‐based coastal governance across five countries

Competencia, capacidad, autonomía
En este numero de la revista EIDON se publican tres trabajos sobre el tema, tan complejo y a la vez tan importante, del “menor maduro”. Se trata de la madurez psiquica, mental o, quiza mejor, humana. Nos preocupa, porque en el caso del menor de edad se invierte la carga de la prueba, de forma que al menor se le presume inmaduro y el peso de la prueba ...

The link between colorfulness and extinction risk across the world's passerine birds
Abstract Many of the functional traits that mediate extinction risk across the range of biodiversity relate indirectly to a species’ ability to persist in a changing world, yet certain traits such as coloration directly affect human interactions with wildlife.

Key practices for ethical research during scientific expeditions
In many cases, expeditionary practices undermined local knowledge and expertise. This perspective advocates for a shift from parachute science towards a collaborative research approach. We reflect on and suggest best practices during scientific expeditions within research teams and in the team's interactions with different communities.

Sex‐Specific Atlantic Salmon Upstream Passage and Fallback at a Natural Cascade After Dam Removal
ABSTRACT In the Boquet River (NY, USA) a low‐head dam set above a ~200‐m bedrock cascade was removed in 2015. We used radio‐telemetry to assess landlocked Atlantic salmon passage at the remaining cascade (2020, 2022). Across years, 52% of males (13/25) attempted cascade passage whereas females made no discernable attempts (0/11).
