Hobbyist preferences for pet freshwater turtles
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract The burgeoning pet trade is a primary threat to wild freshwater turtles worldwide. Although the risks from commercial exploitation of turtles have been discussed widely, there is little empirical research on preferences for pet turtles from a hobbyists’ perspective.

Distribution, scale, and drivers of mass mortality events in Europe's freshwater bivalves
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Mass mortality events (MMEs) are decimating populations and compromising key ecosystem functions around the globe. One taxon particularly vulnerable to MMEs is freshwater bivalve mollusks. This group has important ecosystem engineering capacities and includes highly threatened and highly invasive taxa.

Representation of obligate groundwater‐dwelling copepod diversity in European protected areas
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Groundwaters sustain diverse surface ecosystems and are populated by metazoan species, mostly invertebrates, that provide fundamental ecological functions and are often of prominent conservation value due to narrow endemism and high phylogenetic rarity.

An integrated approach to balance freshwater connectivity restoration and invasion risk
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Habitat fragmentation negatively affects many native migratory fish populations. However, this fragmentation can also prevent the spread and establishment of invasive species. We modified the dendritic connectivity index (DCI), a commonly used freshwater connectivity metric, to account for multiple invasive dispersal pathways in estimates of ...

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Insectivorous, Afro‐Palearctic migrant birds provide cross‐border ecosystem services, but many are declining rapidly. The complex life cycle of migrant birds makes their conservation difficult, but understanding where they spend time during the breeding season can help indicate where those actions will be most effective.

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Achieving global conservation policy goals requires the ability to set and measure progress toward science‐based targets for biodiversity. The species threat abatement and restoration (STAR) metric was developed to enable actors to set science‐based targets for species.

Simulación del movimiento del aire en un invernadero tipo venlo
Terra Latinoamericana, 2013 Se han realizado aproximaciones teóricas para estudiar la ventilación en invernaderos como los modelos mecanicistas, que se basan en el balance de energía, pero sólo proveen información acerca de la tasa de ventilación global sin ofrecer detalles de la ...

Structured machine learning modeling to support conservation of deep‐sea benthic biodiversity
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.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).
