Climatic–Anthropogenic Synergy Drives Escalating Minimum Area Requirements and Connectivity‐Protection Mismatch in a Karst‐Endemic Primate

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Climate change and anthropogenic activities drive antagonistic degradation of landscape connectivity for endangered François’ langur (1987–2024), causing 48.8% habitat loss, north‐south fragmentation, and centroid migration (1.2 km/yr). Despite protected areas buffering connectivity, static management fails dynamic priority habitats; we propose ...

Living Low and Dry: Costs of and Resilience to Soil Hydric Stress in a Fossorial Amphisbaenian Reptile

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Soil drought imposes moderate, temporary costs on a strictly fossorial amphisbaenian reptile. However, these animals seem to cope with, at least, moderately short droughts thanks to their peculiar adaptations to living in an underground environment. ABSTRACT The physiological traits of animals can be strongly influenced by climatic fluctuations, and ...

State‐and‐transition simulation models: How can we use them to assess ecosystem condition and support nature markets

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract The world is experiencing a biodiversity crisis. Steep declines in habitat quality and ecosystem services have resulted in interest in markets to help fund ecological restoration. One way that ecological restoration is assessed is through indicators of ecosystem condition, namely, a measurement of how different a landscape is from its ...

Nature on the balance sheet: Accountability for Nature Positive

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Nature loss poses a growing risk to the global economy, prompting calls for enhanced business accountability. To support the urgent business transformations required to achieve Nature Positive goals, decision‐makers, investors, lenders and other stakeholders need consistent, comparable and decision‐useful information on the state of nature and
