Incorporating multidimensional behavior into a risk management tool for a critically endangered and migratory species

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 5, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Conservation of migratory species exhibiting wide‐ranging and multidimensional behaviors is challenged by management efforts that only utilize horizontal movements or produce static spatial–temporal products. For the deep‐diving, critically endangered eastern Pacific leatherback turtle, tools that predict where turtles have high risks of ...

Causes of the recent decline of a Lesser Kestrel (Falco naumanni) population under an enhanced conservation scenario

Ibis, Volume 165, Issue 2, Page 388-402, April 2023., 2023
Lesser Kestrel Falco naumanni (Fleischer, 1818) populations have been one of the best monitored bird populations in Spain over the last 70 years. These populations suffered a sharp decline between the 1950s and 1990s. Since then, periodic censuses showed a population increase that lasted until the 2010s.

Population dynamics of recovering apex predators: Golden eagles in a Mediterranean landscape

Journal of Zoology, Volume 319, Issue 2, Page 99-111, February 2023., 2023
Density‐dependence, resource availability and human pressure at territorial level drive population dynamics in a recovering apex‐predator population. Abstract Apex predators play a critical role in shaping the biological and functional diversity of ecosystems.

Large‐sample‐size assessment of socioeconomic predictors of community‐level resource management occurrence

Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 2, April 2022., 2022
Abstract Community‐level resource management efforts are cornerstones in ensuring sustainable use of natural resources. Yet, understanding how community characteristics influence management practices remains contested. With a sample size of ≥725 communities, we assessed the effects of key community (i.e., socioeconomic) characteristics (human ...

Using historical spy satellite photographs and recent remote sensing data to identify high‐conservation‐value forests

Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 2, April 2022., 2022
Abstract High‐conservation‐value forests (HCVFs) are critically important for biodiversity and ecosystem service provisioning, but they face many threats. Where systematic HCVF inventories are missing, such as in parts of Eastern Europe, these forests remain largely unacknowledged and therefore often unprotected.

Using interview surveys and multispecies occupancy models to inform vertebrate conservation

Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 2, April 2022., 2022
Abstract Species distribution data are an essential biodiversity variable requiring robust monitoring to inform wildlife conservation. Yet, such data remain inherently sparse because of the logistical challenges of monitoring biodiversity across broad geographic extents.

Assessing the population‐level conservation effects of marine protected areas

Conservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 6, Page 1861-1870, December 2021., 2021
Abstract Marine protected areas (MPAs) cover 3–7% of the world's ocean, and international organizations call for 30% coverage by 2030. Although numerous studies show that MPAs produce conservation benefits inside their borders, many MPAs are also justified on the grounds that they confer conservation benefits to the connected populations that span ...

Reconocimiento preliminar de la densidad y estructura poblacional de Saguinus tripartitus Milne-Eduards en la Amazonía peruana

Revista Peruana de Biología, 2013
Censos por transecto fueron llevados a cabo en enero del 2005 en la cuenca del río Aushiri para determinar la densidad poblacional y estructura poblacional del «pichico dorado» (Saguinus tripartitus MilneEduards).

Scaling up private land conservation to meet recovery goals for grassland birds

Conservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 5, Page 1564-1574, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Long‐term population declines have elevated recovery of grassland avifauna to among the highest conservation priorities in North America. Because most of the Great Plains is privately owned, recovery of grassland bird populations depends on voluntary conservation with strong partnerships between private landowners and resource professionals ...
