An integrated approach to balance freshwater connectivity restoration and invasion risk
Abstract Habitat fragmentation negatively affects many native migratory fish populations. However, this fragmentation can also prevent the spread and establishment of invasive species. We modified the dendritic connectivity index (DCI), a commonly used freshwater connectivity metric, to account for multiple invasive dispersal pathways in estimates of ...

Underwater compressed‐air blasting is a novel method developed to control invasive sun corals (Tubastraea spp.). The technique removes coral soft tissue without fragmenting colonies, reducing the risk of regeneration and accidental spread. This approach offers a safer and practical tool for managing invasive corals in natural reefs and biofouling ...

Static boundaries of protected areas failed to capture the Canary Islands stonechat's shifting distribution patterns. Abstract Protected areas represent cornerstones of biodiversity conservation on oceanic islands, yet their effectiveness for endemic species remains poorly evaluated. We assessed how various territorial protection categories conserve an
