Structured machine learning modeling to support conservation of deep‐sea benthic biodiversity

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Biodiversity monitoring programs need to deliver accurate, timely, and actionable predictions. To establish a predictive monitoring program for deep‐sea benthos of the Santos Basin, Brazil, we developed a two‐stage structured model that allowed comparison of biodiversity predictions obtained from environmental simulations (2M‐Sim).

Centering geospatial data uncertainty and the potential for injustice in pastoralist rangeland conservation prioritization

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Procedural, distributional, recognitional, and epistemic justice aspects of conservation interventions are well documented in contexts where pastoralism is a key livelihood and way of life. Geospatial analyses and representations of wildlife conservation and restoration that are increasingly applied in pastoralist rangeland socioecological ...

Assessing differences among elasmobranch nurseries to aid conservation based on a genomics framework

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Elasmobranch nurseries often differ in environmental conditions, demographics, and use patterns. These differences affect the distribution of genetic variation among nurseries. However, conservation and management strategies often fail to account for such differences because they are difficult to characterize.

Uncovering correlates of decline and critical refuges for a threatened terrestrial mammal

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Globally, the geographic ranges of numerous species are contracting. Identifying spatiotemporal patterns of threat impact can illuminate why species decline in some parts of their range but persist in others. We developed a correlative approach to identify species’ response thresholds and locate ecological refuge areas associated with ...

Effectiveness of conservation lands in Mexico for safeguarding terrestrial endemic species from the human‐induced extinction crisis

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
Across 1639 endemic Mexican species, we show that most species' ranges coincide with moderate to high human pressure, while existing conservation lands cover only a small fraction of their distributions. This spatial mismatch indicates that current conservation–land networks are insufficient to prevent future biodiversity loss. Substantial expansion of
