TABMON: Design and deployment of a transnational passive acoustic monitoring network for European birds

Methods in Ecology and Evolution
Ecological surveys are often fragmented, costly and limited in scale, leading to large and long‐standing knowledge gaps which threaten our ability to properly safeguard biodiversity.

A Standardized Workflow Based on the STAVIRO Unbaited Underwater Video System for Monitoring Fish and Habitat Essential Biodiversity Variables in Coastal Areas

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBV) related to benthic habitats and high trophic levels such as fish communities must be measured at fine scale but monitored and assessed at spatial scales that are relevant for policy and management actions.

Disentangling linkages between satellite-derived indicators of forest structure and productivity for ecosystem monitoring. [PDF]

Sci Rep
The essential biodiversity variables (EBV) framework has been proposed as a monitoring system of standardized, comparable variables that represents a minimum set of biological information to monitor biodiversity change at large spatial extents.

Global biodiversity monitoring: From data sources to Essential Biodiversity Variables

Biological Conservation, 2017
Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBVs) consolidate information from varied biodiversity observation sources. Here we demonstrate the links between data sources, EBVs and indicators and discuss how different sources of biodiversity observations can be ...

The Bari Manifesto: An interoperability framework for essential biodiversity variables

Ecological Informatics, 2019
Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBV) are fundamental variables that can be used for assessing biodiversity change over time, for determining adherence to biodiversity policy, for monitoring progress towards sustainable development goals, and for ...

An operational definition of essential biodiversity variables

Biodiversity and Conservation, 2017
The concept of essential biodiversity variables (EBVs) was proposed in 2013 to improve harmonization of biodiversity data into meaningful metrics. EBVs were conceived as a small set of variables which collectively capture biodiversity change at multiple ...

Evolutionary Footprint: A Systemic Indicator in Evolution, Ecology and Conservation. [PDF]

Evol Appl
ABSTRACT The growing awareness of evolutionary responses to human‐induced environmental changes highlights the need to better understand and integrate evolutionary perspectives into life sciences and, more broadly, into biodiversity conservation. Evolutionary changes are complex and multi‐causal, operating across numerous timescales.

Framing the concept of satellite remote sensing essential biodiversity variables: challenges and future directions

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, 2016
Although satellite‐based variables have for long been expected to be key components to a unified and global biodiversity monitoring strategy, a definitive and agreed list of these variables still remains elusive.

Biodiversity data provision and decision-making - addressing the challenges [PDF]

Research Ideas and Outcomes, 2017
Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBVs) are measurements required for study, reporting, and management of biodiversity change. They are being developed to support consistency, from the collection to the reporting of biodiversity data at the national ...
