Unpacking the task of synthesis when weaving knowledge systems for biodiversity assessments

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The pivot towards evidence‐based conservation since 2000 has inspired global environmental assessments to gather evidence across multiple knowledge systems, including through co‐production with Indigenous Peoples and local communities. Knowledge co‐production is highlighted as a strategy for transformative change towards a just future that ...

Biosurfactant production by Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from mining waste: From genomic analysis to development of a polymeric composite for removal of hexavalent chromium

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
Biosurfactant was produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa using andiroba waste from Amazonia. A biosurfactant–alginate composite (Alg/BioS) was successfully synthesized via ionotropic gelation, and achieved up to 70% Cr6+ removal from water. Abstract Environmental contamination by heavy metals represents a significant challenge due to their persistence in ...

Retrospective image analysis for long‐term demography using Google Earth imagery

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that high‐resolution Google Earth imagery, combined with minimal field validation, enables retrospective tracking of individual invasive plants. The image shows one of the monitored individuals of Opuntia sp. in Greece. Our approach reveals long‐term demographic patterns, recruitment dynamics, and spatial expansion without continuous ...

Scaling from microsite to landscape to resolve litter decomposition dynamics in globally extensive drylands

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Decomposition is the transformation of dead organic matter into its inorganic constituents. In most biomes, decomposition rates can be accurately predicted with simple mathematical models, but these models have long under‐predicted decomposition in globally extensive ...

Catholic Values and Gender Politics in the Colombian Mass Media: Acción Cultural Popular (ACPO) in the 1970s

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The 1970s were a decade of huge change for women in Colombia, from the legalisation of divorce to increased access to education, labour market participation and contraception. This article examines how the Catholic non‐governmental organisation Acción Cultural Popular (Popular Cultural Action, ACPO) responded to women's changing roles and ...

A framework for maximizing the benefit from retaining regrowth on private land

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Conservation interventions often have lower‐than‐desired positive impacts, as revealed by retrospective counterfactual‐based evaluations. To address this, a prospective counterfactual‐based approach can be used to estimate potential benefits and design conservation interventions to maximize outcomes. We developed a framework for estimating the

Impact of global change on the distribution of mountain mammals and birds

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change and land‐use changes are key drivers of global biodiversity loss. Many species are shifting to higher elevations or latitudes in response to global warming, often encountering unfavorable land‐use conditions during the shift. These changes can lead to reduced range size and increased extinction risks, particularly for mountain ...

What climate adaptation can learn from evolutionary adaptation

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Evolutionary and climate adaptation both describe how complex systems respond to environmental change, either via natural selection or deliberate human choices. Although adaptation in both contexts is expected to produce favorable outcomes, it can also result in maladaptation—ineffective, unintended, or harmful outcomes. As an emerging area of
