Animal Conservation, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 445-464, June 2025.
When species go extinct, online interest spikes but often fades quickly. We analysed how online attention shifts before and after extinction announcements of eight species and found that there are brief spikes of interest on Twitter, while Wikipedia shows more prolonged engagement.

Gaidropsarus mauritanicus (Gadiformes, Gaidropsaridae) a new three‐bearded rockling from a deep‐water coral ecosystem with a genetically verified biogeographical distribution of the genus and notes to its ecology and behavior

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 105, Issue 6, Page 1643-1665, December 2024.
Abstract Gaidropsarus mauritanicus sp. nov. is described from one specimen collected using a grab sample from the Tanoûdêrt Canyon (ca. 20° N) off Mauritania at a depth of 595 m. The new species was further observed during eight remotely operated vehicle (ROV) dives along the Mauritanian slope southwards down to the Tiguent Coral Mound Complex (~17° N)

The assembly and dynamics of ecological communities in an ever‐changing world

Ecological Monographs, Volume 94, Issue 4, November 2024.
Abstract Alternative perspectives on the maintenance of biodiversity and the assembly of ecological communities suggest that both processes cannot be investigated simultaneously. In this concept and synthesis, we challenge this view by presenting major theoretical advances in structural stability and permanence theory.

Trade and socioeconomic importance of an invasive giant snail in the endemic‐rich island of São Tomé, Central Africa

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 5, October 2024.
Abstract Managing invasive species is crucial to mitigate their negative impacts on ecosystems, yet conflicts may arise when their social benefits are disregarded. Human pressure on the endemic‐rich forests of São Tomé has been high since the island was discovered by the Portuguese in the 15th century, and numerous species have been introduced.

Social valuation of biodiversity relative to other types of assets at risk in wildfire

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 3, June 2024.
Abstract Environmental crises, such as wildfires, can cause major losses of human life, infrastructure, biodiversity, and cultural values. In many such situations, incident controllers must make fateful choices about what to protect—and hence what to abandon.

Rapid terrace incision and Quaternary landscape evolution in central Patagonia

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 39, Issue 2, Page 208-223, February 2024.
Abstract The debate over isostatic uplift versus discharge as drivers of Quaternary river incision is explored here through geospatial analysis of a ~250‐m‐relief terrace sequence from the Río Pinturas (Argentine Patagonia). The geomorphic setting of the Cañadon Caracoles reach allows evaluation of discharge as a driver of terrace incision because ...
