Evaluating a structured expert elicitation approach for adaptive conservation management based on lessons from five years in practice

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Adaptive management of threatened species relies on having ex ante estimates of species’ responses to different interventions. Structured expert elicitation is often used to generate these estimates, but comparisons of these expert‐predicted outcomes with observed results are rare.

Compliance in Regulatory Gray Areas: The Case of the Organic Seed Standard

Policy Studies Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adaptive regulations, designed to balance flexibility with accountability, can embed provisions that unintentionally leave room for firms to shirk on their responsibilities by exploiting flexibility. We call these provisions “regulatory gray areas,” and ask: how should we understand (non‐)compliance in adaptive regulatory settings?

Modelo de Control Adaptativo del Aprendizaje

Estudios y Perspectivas Revista Científica y Académica
El presente documento propone el Modelo de Control Adaptativo del Aprendizaje (MCAA), un framework educativo formal que reinterpreta los principios matemáticos de la ingeniería de sistemas de control —específicamente el control de retroalimentación y el controlador PID (Proporcional-Integral-Derivativo)— como mecanismos de regulación del proceso de ...

Farm‐Scale Recharge Pits for Improving Local Groundwater Availability: Insights From a Hardrock Watershed in Rajasthan, India

World Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Groundwater depletion is a major challenge in semiarid, hard‐rock regions where irrigation demands often exceed natural recharge. This study evaluates the effectiveness of farm‐scale recharge pits as a local, supplementary, and community‐managed groundwater recharge solution in the Dharta catchment of Rajasthan, India. Alongside check dams and

Governing Cybersecurity in the Digital Age: Mapping Comprehensive Policy Mixes With the Nodality‐Authority‐Treasure‐Organization Lens

Review of Policy Research, Volume 43, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The accelerated digitalisation of society has amplified cybersecurity threats and revealed their cross‐sectoral nature. Yet, the policy instruments used to address these challenges remain insufficiently examined. This study conducts a scoping review of 980 academic articles (2007–2024) and applies Hood's NATO framework (Nodality, Authority ...

Using incentive payments to promote human–carnivore coexistence

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract For many large carnivores, minimizing the financial burden they impose on local people is critical to their conservation. Incentive‐based programs that provide people with financial benefits for taking pro‐conservation actions or achieving conservation goals are a promising tool for promoting human–carnivore coexistence. Although the number of
