The entanglement between the IUCN Red List and international biodiversity law. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol
Abstract The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species (red list) is of fundamental importance for nature conservation and biodiversity protection. I considered the interaction between the red list and international biodiversity law (IBL), the legal regime that aims to protect biodiversity at a global level ...

Using customs data to understand overlooked trade in non-CITES birds between Africa and Asia. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol
Abstract The international trade in live birds poses risks to animals, people, and biodiversity. To effectively mitigate these risks, decision‐makers require information on the volume, dynamics, and direction of trade. Despite Africa once being the largest exporter of birds by region, very little data exist on recent trade in live birds not listed on ...

Assessing responses of reef island seabirds to environmental and anthropogenic drivers. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol
Abstract Tropical insular ecosystems face escalating, cumulative impacts of land‐ and sea‐based ecological threats that jeopardize the long‐term sustainability of their native communities. This joint vulnerability is epitomized by reef island seabirds, which are exposed to reef decline and coastal erosion driven by climate change, reduction in prey ...

Prevalence of traded bird species in key biodiversity areas. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol
Abstract The use and trade of biodiversity involve tens of thousands of species that are exploited at a range of scales, intensities, and degrees of sustainability. As a result, some are highly threatened. Key biodiversity areas (KBAs) are sites of significance for the persistence of biodiversity identified nationally based on standardized criteria ...

Survival, rarity, and extinction in tropical stony corals. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol
Abstract Many reef‐building tropical corals are becoming rare. We considered the meaning of rarity in corals and highlighted taxa that have reached low abundances in the last few decades. The difficulties of quantifying rarity in the marine environment arise from the sheer scale and 3‐dimensional nature of the biome and the inherent challenges therein ...

Teacher-Student Relationship Quality and Classroom Climate From the Student Perspective: Adaptation of the SPARTS-E in the Spanish Context7. [PDF]

open access: yesChild Care Health Dev
ABSTRACT Background The quality of the affective bond between teachers and their students is recognised as a key determinant of children's socio‐emotional adjustment, classroom climate and academic engagement. Spain, however, lacks student‐reported measures grounded in attachment theory. This study therefore adapted and validated the Student Perception

Two contemporary poets and the Ted Hughes bestiary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Ted Hughes’s animal poetry seems, at first, to oscillate back and forward between two poles: creatures recorded in lyric, observational mode – The Hawk in the Rain, Remains of Elmet, Moortown Diary – and sometimes-mythical beasts carrying heavy ...

Analysis of morphological attributes as a driver of trade in poison dart frogs. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol
Abstract The unsustainable use of wildlife is a threat to biodiversity on a global scale, and the insatiable demand is driven by the attributes of the species, their parts, and derivatives. However, not all species are equally valued; certain attributes command a higher price. One example is the exotic pet trade in amphibians and reptiles.

Optimizing biodiversity offsetting for habitat succession and colonization dynamics

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity offsetting aims to compensate for ecological losses from development through conservation and restoration. However, its long‐term outcomes under repeated impact–offset cycles remain uncertain. Using a conceptual forest succession model, we evaluated how offset outcomes are affected by interactions among compensation scale ...

Predictive evolutionary genomics: principles, validation, and practice

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 1, Page 36-48, October 2026.
Summary Climate change and habitat loss are driving rapid evolutionary responses in populations world‐wide, which creates an urgent need for evolutionary forecasting in conservation and agriculture. Such forecasting can be categorized into three time scales: trait‐based models that use multivariate quantitative genetic equations to project correlated ...
