Classification of direct threats to the conservation of ecosystems and species 4.0

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 3, June 2025.
Abstract Identifying and assessing the magnitude of direct threats to ecosystems and species are critical steps to prioritizing, planning, implementing, and assessing conservation actions. Just as medical clinicians and researchers need a standard way to talk about human diseases, conservation practitioners and scientists need a common and ...

Navigating scale and interdisciplinary dynamics in conservation social science

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract To better understand and address global human–environment crises, interdisciplinary collaborations across the natural and social sciences have become increasingly common in conservation. Within such collaborations, the question of scale can cause tensions: how to agree on the unit of measurement and analysis?

Towards a global understanding of tree mortality

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 245, Issue 6, Page 2377-2392, March 2025.
Summary Rates of tree mortality are increasing globally, with implications for forests and climate. Yet, how and why these trends vary globally remain unknown. Developing a comprehensive assessment of global tree mortality will require systematically integrating data from ground‐based long‐term forest monitoring with large‐scale remote sensing.

Evaluating endophyte‐rich leaves and leaf functional traits for protection of tropical trees against natural enemies

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 2, Page 371-389, February 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants use physical barriers and chemical compounds to defend themselves against natural enemies. For instance, tough leaves are considered to be better defended than soft leaves, part of a spectrum of defences defined by functional traits such as leaf chemistry ...

Reptile responses to fire across the western Mediterranean Basin

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 1, February 2025.
Abstract Effects of anthropogenic activities, including climate change, are modifying fire regimes, and the dynamic nature of these modifications requires identification of general patterns of organisms’ responses to fire. This is a challenging task because of the high complexity of factors involved (including climate, geography, land use, and species ...

The need for carbon finance schemes to tackle overexploitation of tropical forest wildlife

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 1, February 2025.
Abstract Defaunation of tropical forests, particularly from unsustainable hunting, has diminished populations of key seed dispersers for many tree species, driving shifts in forest community composition toward small‐fruited or wind‐dispersed trees with low wood density. Such shifts can reduce aboveground biomass, prompting calls for overexploitation to
