Amazonia 2040: Spatial‐explicit futures scenarios for the mosaic of protected areas in the Lower Rio Negro (MBRN), Brazil

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
Spatial‐explicit futures scenarios were applied in the Mosaic of Protected Areas of the Lower Rio Negro (MBRN), for co‐creating scenarios for the MBRN in the year 2040. Scenario making enabled negotiating desirable futures, aligning values and goals.

Social media highlights the overlooked impact of cats on arthropods

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 460-465, March 2026.
The impact of domestic cats on vertebrate biodiversity is unequivocal; however, we still know little about their effects on arthropods. By analysing over 17,000 photos and videos from social media platforms (iStock and TikTok), we documented 550 predation events of cats on arthropods.

Abundance and Seasonal Dynamics of Guiana Dolphins (Sotalia guianensis) in Southern Brazilian Estuarine and Adjacent Coastal Waters

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Estimating population parameters is crucial for understanding species dynamics and assessing anthropogenic impacts, thereby supporting conservation efforts. We evaluate key population parameters—group structure, abundance and capture–recapture probabilities—of the Guiana dolphin in the Paranaguá Estuarine Complex and adjacent coastal waters ...

Social media videos highlight the impacts of the illegal use of snares on Brazilian biodiversity

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 11, Page 2811-2820, November 2025.
Abstract Snares are one of the most used types of non‐selective traps for hunting worldwide, though their use is prohibited in many countries, including Brazil. Indiscriminate and unmonitored use of snares can induce serious conservation problems, particularly in megadiverse countries where higher species richness and diversity mean that the ...

Growth–survival trade‐off in temperate trees is weak and restricted to late‐successional stages

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 11, Page 3466-3477, November 2025.
Our findings highlight a role of disturbances in filtering life‐history strategies and their potential impact on forest dynamics and global carbon cycling, but also a need to better understand the mediating processes of tree demographic trade‐offs.
