Accounting for spatial interactions in the upscaling of ecosystem services
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Maps of ecosystem service (ES) supply are frequently used to guide spatial planning, policymaking and ecosystem management. However, these are typically based upon coarse land‐cover proxies. This approach lacks a strong mechanistic basis and neglects spatial biodiversity dynamics and interactions among landscape properties that can modify ES ...

From short to long: The impact of read length on metagenome assembly and binning
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Metagenome sequencing not only plays a pivotal role in unravelling the genetic diversity and functional potential of microbial communities but also facilitates the discovery of genome context for microbial dark matter. This study presents a comparative analysis of metagenome sequencing strategies, focusing on the impact of read length on the ...

Implementing the Simple Biosphere Model (SiB) in a general circulation model: Methodologies and results [PDF]
The Simple Biosphere MOdel (SiB) of Sellers et al., (1986) was designed to simulate the interactions between the Earth's land surface and the atmosphere by treating the vegetation explicitly and relistically, thereby incorporating biophysical controls on

Abacus, EarlyView.The Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) has become a widely adopted sustainability reporting framework. This study aims to examine whether GRI reports can, should, and do address planetary boundaries. To do so, the study develops a framework and method to assess the extent to which planetary boundaries‐related information is captured in firms’ GRI ...

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.Deforestation in the tropics is a major threat to forest‐specialist animals, many of which are already threatened with extinction. We assessed how forest fragmentation and its associated edge‐effects impact animal biodiversity in Northwest Madagascar using soundscape analysis and acoustic indices.

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.We used pattern recognition software to correct misidentifications in a 15‐year photographic database of the last, vulnerable West African giraffe population in Niger. After revealing substantial methodological errors that had inflated population estimates by nearly 19%, we corrected individual encounter histories and applied capture‐mark‐recapture ...

Survival Remains High in Griffon Vultures 40 Years After Reintroduction
Animal Conservation, EarlyView.The reintroduction of the Griffon vulture (Gyps fulvus) in French Grands Causses in 1981 is largely regarded as a significant translocation success. 40 years of quality data from intensive monitoring allows us to investigate the survival rates in this long‐lived population on the long term, but also to reflect on the crucial role of adaptive management

Archaeometry, EarlyView.Abstract Cultural and natural values form the core of World Heritage designation. Properties displaying both values, however, comprise a fraction of inscriptions (currently c. 3%) to the World Heritage List. In 1992, when that fraction stood at c. 5%, adoption of the popular ‘cultural landscapes’ category of cultural heritage in 1992 was therefore ...
