Catalysts for change: Museum gardens in a planetary emergency
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
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 ...

WABAD: A world annotated bird acoustic dataset for passive acoustic monitoring
Abstract Under the current global biodiversity crisis, there is a need for automated and noninvasive monitoring techniques that can gather large amounts of data cost‐effectively at various ecological scales, from local to large spatial scales. These data can then be analyzed to inform stakeholders and decision‐makers.

Schematic representation of the experimental settings for one field type. Each setting was assigned one of the three treatments (i.e., walls, floors, or control). Each treatment contained an AudioMoth™ (circle), either positioned close to the ground (5 cm) or elevated (60 cm), acting as a receiver organism. Abstract Sensory ecology theory proposes that
