Extreme site fidelity in long‐distance migratory shorebirds in Australia and potential implications for conservation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Site fidelity is the tendency for animals to repeatedly return to the same locations, either within or between years. Site fidelity enables animals to utilize knowledge of previously visited locations, including assessments of seasonal variations in health and mortality risks (e.g., predation), resource availability, and social benefits such ...

Comparative species distribution model framework for marine conservation and its application to loggerhead turtles in the Mediterranean

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modeling species distributions in dynamic pelagic environments remains challenging, particularly for wide‐ranging and highly mobile species when there is limited guidance on model performance. This limitation constrains the effective use of species distribution models (SDMs) in marine conservation, where robust and transferable predictions are

Evaluating a structured expert elicitation approach for adaptive conservation management based on lessons from five years in practice

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Adaptive management of threatened species relies on having ex ante estimates of species’ responses to different interventions. Structured expert elicitation is often used to generate these estimates, but comparisons of these expert‐predicted outcomes with observed results are rare.

Evaluación numérica del campo de temperatura en las aletas de un sistema de enfriamiento por aire de un motor monocilindro, mediante volumenes finitos

INGnosis Revista de Investigación Científica, 2017
La presente investigación tuvo por objetivo determinar el campo de temperatura en las aletas del sistema de enfriamiento por aire de un motor monocilíndrico marca HONDA, modelo CDI CG 125. El tipo de investigación es descriptivo correlacional, en un nivel transversal, debido a que se midió la temperatura real de funcionamiento en un instante de ...

A methodological assessment and reflection on member checking as a form of participant validation for conservation social science

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Qualitative approaches are increasingly applied in conservation social science, yet methodological reflection remains limited. Member checking, a process of returning findings to participants for feedback, is widely recognized outside conservation as a means to enhance rigor and reciprocity, but it is rarely reported in conservation research ...

Intact coastal nursery rearing amid climate‐driven phenological shifts in threatened salmon

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
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 ...

Using the capabilities approach to achieve people‐centered conservation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Top‐down interventions carried out by state and nonstate institutions to conserve biodiversity and improve the lives of forest‐proximate people (FPP) in the Global South tend to reflect economistic understandings of human well‐being. More progressive and people‐centered conservation projects are guided by normative visions of how the world ...
