Effect of reserve protection level and governance on tree cover loss and gain

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 4, August 2025.
Abstract Terrestrial protected areas are essential for biodiversity conservation, yet it is not fully understood when and how different types of protected areas are most effective in achieving specific conservation objectives. We assessed the impact of reserves on tree cover loss and gain through a case study in Tasmania, Australia.

Spatially nested species distribution models (N‐SDM): An effective tool to overcome niche truncation for more robust inference and projections

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 7, Page 1588-1605, July 2025.
N‐SDMs are key tools to develop untruncated regional climate change forecasts of species distributions at fine resolution over restricted extents. While several N‐SDM approaches were proposed, there is currently no universal solution suggesting that further developments and testing are crucial if we are to derive robust future projections of species ...

Conservation priorities for functionally unique and specialized terrestrial vertebrates threatened by biological invasions

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Invasive non‐native species (INS) continue to pose a significant threat to biodiversity, including native population declines, which can ultimately disrupt ecosystem processes. Although there is growing evidence of the impacts of INS on functional diversity, most of the existing approaches to prioritization of species for conservation still ...

Advancing social impact assessments for more effective and equitable conservation

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Social objectives for conservation have expanded beyond consideration of material costs and benefits to recognize Indigenous Peoples’ and local communities’ rights, the importance of their full and effective participation, and the contribution of customary institutions and plural knowledge systems.

Niche‐based approach to explore the impacts of environmental disturbances on biodiversity

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 6, December 2024.
Abstract Globally, species are increasingly at risk from compounding threatening processes, an increasingly prominent driver of which is environmental disturbances. To facilitate effective conservation efforts following such events, methods that evaluate potential impacts across multiple species and provide landscape‐scale information are needed to ...

Expert assessment of illegal collecting impacts on Venus flytraps and priorities for research on illegal trade

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 5, October 2024.
Abstract Illegal collecting of wild Venus flytraps (Dionaea muscipula) for the horticultural trade represents a persistent threat to populations of the species across their endemic range in the coastal plain of North and South Carolina (United States). Although wild collecting of Venus flytraps is not a novel threat, there has been very little research

Report on the establishment of the safe shelf life of certain ready‐to‐eat foods, sliced and prepacked in retail, in relation to the risk of Listeria monocytogenes

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 2, Issue 3, July 2024.
Abstract The Barcelona Public Health Agency (ASPB) asked the Scientific Advisory Committee on Food Safety for an opinion on the safe shelf life of Listeria monocytogenes in certain products (cheeses, cooked meats, including pâtés, and cured meats) sliced and prepackaged prior to retail sale.

Waterscapes meet socio‐ecological models: A relational framework to examine water insecurity and human health and well‐being

People and Nature, Volume 6, Issue 3, Page 1036-1047, June 2024.
Abstract Water insecurity, the inability to benefit from affordable, adequate, reliable and safe water, is one of the greatest contemporary threats facing humans. While ‘water insecurity’, as a concept, is globally recognized and serves an essential function in policymaking, it does not capture the multiple, relational connections between Indigenous ...
