Record phenological responses to climate change in three sympatric penguin species

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This paper is impressive because we managed to monitor extensively a really difficult place to reach and operate in. We deployed 77 cameras across Antarctica and the Sub Antarctic islands to monitor three different species of penguins. We found that they are the fastest advancing vertebrates with respect to their timing of breeding.

Diagnosing scaling bottlenecks in 10 community conservation initiatives in southern and eastern Africa

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Scaling area‐based conservation, including initiatives led or comanaged by Indigenous Peoples and local communities, is a flagship goal of the Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. Conservationists often aspire to scale initiatives, but this is rarely achieved in practice. Identifying and addressing factors that limit initiative adoption (i.e.

Use of species’ responses to cryptic anthropogenic disturbances for monitoring biodiversity outcomes in tropical forests

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Measuring area‐based conservation outcomes in tropical forests is challenging due to cryptic human disturbances (e.g., hunting). As a result, comparative studies of management strategies providing quantitative outcomes remain scarce, especially in the Neotropics.
