Conservation Science and PracticePassive acoustic recorders have emerged as powerful tools for ecological monitoring. However, effective monitoring is not simply an act of recording sounds. To have meaning for conservation and management, acoustic monitoring needs to be properly planned

Optimization of passive acoustic bird surveys: a global assessment of BirdNET settings
Ibis, Volume 168, Issue 2, Page 785-798, April 2026.BirdNET is a popular machine learning tool for automated recognition of bird sounds. However, evidence on how to optimize its settings for accurate bird monitoring remains limited. Here, we evaluate how BirdNET settings influence model performance in identifying bird vocalizations and characterizing bird communities, using 4224 1‐min recordings from 67

Catalysts for change: Museum gardens in a planetary emergency
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 401-410, March 2026.Natural history museums are often seen as places with indoor galleries full of dry‐dusty specimens, usually of animals. But if they have gardens associated with them, museums can use living plants to create narratives that link outside spaces to inside galleries, bringing to life the challenges facing biodiversity.

A Conceptual Framework and Methods for Studying the Connectivity of Fishes
Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 342-369, March 2026.ABSTRACT Connectivity is a multifaceted concept that has important implications for the management and conservation of marine and freshwater fishes. We developed a conceptual framework that encompasses multiple, interrelated categories of connectedness, including landscape (e.g., structural, functional) connectivity and ecological (e.g., trophic ...

Time series methods for the analysis of soundscapes and other cyclical ecological data
Methods in Ecology and EvolutionBiodiversity monitoring has entered an era of ‘big data’, exemplified by a near‐continuous collection of sounds, images, chemical and other signals from organisms in diverse ecosystems.
