Improving the use of expert opinion in disease risk analysis for conservation translocations

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Conservation translocations are subject to considerable uncertainty and risk, of which disease is one of the most recognized. To address disease risks, several protocols for qualitative disease risk analysis (qDRA) exist and are used for responsible conservation translocation planning.

Changes in the transformative potential of action proposals in Finnish Red Lists from 1986 to 2019

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Red lists provide critical knowledge regarding biodiversity decline, especially in Finland, where broad assessments have been made regularly since the 1980s. They deliver information on the threat status of species and ecosystems, propose actions to guide conservation policy, and have the potential to spur transformative change.

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

open access: yesConservation 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 ...

Measuring maternal line selection driven by differential survival in ex situ collections for plant conservation

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Ex situ plant collections may be increasingly needed to protect representative samples of threatened or rare species and provide plant material for conservation translocation. A primary problem in these ex situ collections is loss of intraspecific variation due to plant death. Different management actions would be required depending on whether

Employing a Hysteresis Approach to Analyze Shifts in Tree Physiological Thresholds in Response to Drought

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 4850-4871, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Drought‐induced tree mortality underscores the need for improved physiological models to predict tree responses to water stress. We employed a hysteresis modelling approach analyzing diel water absorption and desorption cycles to understand drought‐induced shifts in physiological thresholds.

SOS Cocodrilo Tampico: First‐responder actions to human–crocodile interactions in Northeastern Mexico

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.
Grupo S.O.S. Cocodrilo Tampico (GSOS‐T), a multi‐agency response team in Tampico, Mexico, documented four human–crocodile interactions with Crocodylus moreletii between 2021 and 2022—two fatal, two non‐fatal—revealing that homeless adults face the greatest risk.
