Risks of concealing environmental degradation

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Current practice seeks to conceal the visual impact of land‐use change (i.e., development). Six percent of development impact assessments in Australia and 14% of the World Bank's assessments recommend visual impact mitigation. This mitigation results in, for example, vegetated buffer strips alongside cleared agricultural areas and earthen ...

Effects of Forest Cover and Seasonality on Several Faunal Groups in Cattle Ranching Landscapes of Los Tuxtlas, Mexico

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 4, July 2026.
Forest cover within cattle ranches can strongly shape faunal biodiversity. In Los Tuxtlas, Veracruz, Mexico. We show that butterflies, moths, dung beetles, and birds respond differently to forest cover across habitats (pastures vs. forest fragments) and seasons, as a function of their specialization and resource needs.

Acclimatisation duration, not just release type, drives post‐release settlement in a large‐scale carnivore reintroduction programme

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
Our study highlights that when acclimatisation periods are too short, the substantial economic and logistical investment in soft‐release protocols may fail to deliver the expected conservation gains. Therefore, defining evidence‐based acclimatisation periods that are long enough to promote settlement, yet compatible with logistical constraints, may ...

Wetland location and captive breeding influence trans‐Mediterranean movements in the endangered Marbled Duck (Marmaronetta angustirostris)

open access: yesIbis, Volume 168, Issue 1, Page 245-258, January 2026.
Waterbirds distributed in semi‐arid and arid regions seem to have adapted their behaviour to the availability and seasonality of wetlands, increasing their mobility range. The Marbled Duck Marmaronetta angustirostris is a threatened waterbird that shows trans‐Mediterranean movements but these are poorly known.

Escribir en comunidad: Construcción de relaciones y responsabilidad en la producción de conocimiento

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, Volume 127, Issue 3, Page 447-465, September 2025.
ABSTRACT As anthropology reckons with its past, present, and future, anthropologists increasingly seek to challenge inequities within the discipline and academia more broadly. Anthropology, regardless of subdiscipline, is a social endeavor. Yet research often remains an isolating (though not necessarily solitary) process, even within research teams and
