Monitoring mosaic biotopes in a marine conservation zone by autonomous underwater vehicle. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol, 2019
Abstract The number of marine protected areas (MPAs) has increased dramatically in the last decade and poses a major logistic challenge for conservation practitioners in terms of spatial extent and the multiplicity of habitats and biotopes that now require assessment. Photographic assessment by autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) enables the consistent

Response and resilience of karst subterranean estuary communities to precipitation impacts

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2023., 2023
Heavy precipitation events caused a halocline shift resulting in a mortality event at a karst subterranean estuary, affecting the fauna inhabiting under the halocline (dotted white line) at the marine groundwater layer (a‐b). Overall, marine species (c‐e) inhabiting the caves were impacted, and cave‐adapted fauna (f‐i) remain resilient to short‐term ...

Understanding why consumers in China switch between wild, farmed, and synthetic bear bile products

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 3, June 2022., 2022
Abstract An important rationale for legally farmed and synthetic wildlife products is that they reduce illegal, wild‐sourced trade by supplying markets with sustainable alternatives. For this to work, more established illegal‐product consumers must switch to legal alternatives than new legal‐product consumers switch to illegal wild products.
