Abstract Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership

Navigating multiple objectives, partners, and jurisdictions: Decision analysis for range‐wide conservation planning for an at‐risk species

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We describe a collaborative, multi‐partner, multi‐objective structured decision making process to develop a range‐wide conservation planning framework to recover an at‐risk species—the gopher frog. The process identified optimal, site‐specific management strategies that balanced population outcomes and cost, depending on the weight decision makers ...

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Freshwater fish invasions are major drivers of global ecological change, disrupting native biodiversity and ecosystem functions. However, many invasive fish hold significant socioeconomic value, resulting in conflict over their management. Centrarchidae, which are globally distributed and are important for sportfishing and aquaculture, are now
