Spatial patterns of Cultural and Creative Industries: Creativity and filière behind concentration

Papers in Regional Science, Volume 102, Issue 3, Page 533-564, June 2023., 2023
Abstract Spatial concentration of Cultural and Creative Industries (CCIs) is not a new topic in academic research. However, the analysis of this phenomenon often neglects that CCIs behave differently, due to their heterogeneity. Building on the literature on CCIs' concentration, a novel classification of CCIs is presented based on two key dimensions ...

Chilean bee diversity: Contrasting patterns of species and phylogenetic turnover along a large‐scale ecological gradient

Ecosphere, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Chile's isolation and varied climates have driven the evolution of a unique biodiversity with a high degree of endemism. As a result, Chile encompasses diverse environments, including the Mediterranean‐type ecosystem, a global biodiversity hotspot.

Soils, scale, or elites? Biological innovation in Uruguayan cattle farming, 1880–1913

The Economic History Review, Volume 76, Issue 2, Page 498-524, May 2023., 2023
Abstract This article examines the economics of innovation in livestock rearing during the first globalisation in Uruguay, the country with the most cattle per person in the world, both then and now. Using a new historical dataset of Uruguayan agriculture, the first one at a sub‐provincial level, I exploit regional differences in the adoption of cattle

A new method for broad‐scale modeling and projection of plant assemblages under climatic, biotic, and environmental cofiltering

Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 2, April 2022., 2022
Abstract There is increasing interestin broad‐scale analysis, modeling, and prediction of the distribution and composition of plant species assemblages under climatic, environmental, and biotic change, particularly for conservation purposes. We devised a method to reliably predict the impact of climate change on large assemblages of plant communities ...

Identifying the possibilities and pitfalls of conducting IUCN Red List assessments from remotely sensed habitat information based on insights from poorly known Cuban mammals

Conservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 5, Page 1598-1614, October 2021., 2021
Abstract The International Union for Conservation of Nature's Red List of Threatened Species (RLS) is the key global tool for objective, repeatable assessment of species’ extinction risk status, and plays an essential role in tracking biodiversity loss and guiding conservation action.

Applying habitat and population‐density models to land‐cover time series to inform IUCN Red List assessments

Conservation Biology, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 1084-1093, October 2019., 2019
Abstract The IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) Red List categories and criteria are the most widely used framework for assessing the relative extinction risk of species. The criteria are based on quantitative thresholds relating to the size, trends, and structure of species’ distributions and populations.

Key role for nuclear energy in global biodiversity conservation

Conservation Biology, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 702-712, June 2015., 2015
Abstract Modern society uses massive amounts of energy. Usage rises as population and affluence increase, and energy production and use often have an impact on biodiversity or natural areas. To avoid a business‐as‐usual dependence on coal, oil, and gas over the coming decades, society must map out a future energy mix that incorporates alternative ...
