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.

Abstract Biodiversity is globally threatened by human impacts, including land‐use transformation and climate change, which has prompted a rapid transition from fossil fuels to cleaner energy sources, such as photovoltaic (PV) energy. However, utility‐scale PV plants require vast areas and can lead to conflicts with biodiversity conservation, making ...

Evaluating the use of taxonomy in the IUCN Red List
Abstract Taxonomy defines the units that conservationists strive to preserve for future generations. However, the discovery of new species and the taxonomic revision of existing species affect conservation efforts. Despite the importance of taxonomy for a species’ conservation, there is currently no overview of how those leading species extinction risk

Assessing responses of reef island seabirds to environmental and anthropogenic drivers
Abstract Tropical insular ecosystems face escalating, cumulative impacts of land‐ and sea‐based ecological threats that jeopardize the long‐term sustainability of their native communities. This joint vulnerability is epitomized by reef island seabirds, which are exposed to reef decline and coastal erosion driven by climate change, reduction in prey ...

Reversible Modulation of Glycan Recognition in C‐Type Lectins by Calcium/Lanthanide Exchange
NMR reveals that Ca2+/Ln3+ exchange reversibly modulates carbohydrate recognition by C‐type lectins. C‐type lectins are Ca2+‐dependent glycan‐binding proteins involved in immune recognition and host–pathogen interactions. Previous structural studies suggested that lanthanide ions can replace Ca2+ while preserving protein structure, raising the ...

ABSTRACT When mural art in indigenous communities is commissioned as a participatory project, several methodological, epistemological, and aesthetic questions arise. This text proposes a horizontal and investigative approach to what we can simply call ‘muralism in the A'i Cofán community context,’ not as significant works executed in communities, but ...

Knee height is often right: evaluating device height effects on camera trapping rate
Camera trap deployment height can introduce systematic biases in detection trapping rates across species of different body sizes. Combining 172 paired sampling points in five experiments across Europe, North America and Africa, our results show that low cameras significantly increase detections of small‐ and medium‐sized species, whereas high cameras ...
