Deindustrialization and demographic change: Evidence from big plant closures and downsizing
Abstract We estimate the causal effect of big manufacturing plant closures and downsizing on the socioeconomic composition of Canadian cities between 2001 and 2021. Our instrumental variables estimates show that big manufacturing plant closures and downsizing—large local labour demand shocks—lead to less population growth and a shift in the demographic

The collective application of shorebird tracking data to conservation
Abstract Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership

Intact coastal nursery rearing amid climate‐driven phenological shifts in threatened salmon
Abstract Literature linking phenology to climate has proliferated in recent decades and shows that climate change has reorganized seasonal opportunities worldwide. However, this literature often quantifies changes in point measures of timing (e.g., beginnings and peaks) without context about duration (e.g., rearing season length) or performance (e.g ...

Integrating migratory connectivity data into the conservation of Australian sharks and rays
Abstract Understanding migratory connectivity is important for conserving highly mobile marine species facing escalating threats. Establishing baseline information on migratory connectivity is necessary for identifying species and regions requiring transboundary cooperation for their conservation.

Abstract Microplastic input into the ocean represents an increasing threat to marine biota and may endanger the functioning of marine ecosystems, especially in semi‐enclosed basins, such as the Mediterranean Sea. The size spectrum of microplastics overlaps with that of nano‐microplankton (2–200 μm), thus potentially misleading suspension‐feeding ...
