The paradox of mosquito net fishing: Complex socio‐ecological trade‐offs in southwestern Madagascar
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Small‐scale fisheries are vital for the livelihoods, nutrition and well‐being of millions of people in coastal regions. In many parts of the Global South, rising poverty, limited alternatives and declining resources have driven the spread of mosquito net fishing (MNF), a non‐selective practice using repurposed health‐distributed nets.

Species identification of freshwater crab in Jajroud River
Majallah-i ̒Ilmī-i Shīlāt-i Īrān, 2003 Jajroud river is one of the most important aquatic ecosystem in Iran (east of Tehran) and consist of variety of different aquatics, of which is a freshwater crab. The crab sample were collected from 5 stations of Taraghion, Khojeer, Latian, Daroee plants and Mamloo dam. The collected samples were studied from point of reproduction and feeding behaviour;

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Biological invasions are a major driver of biodiversity loss, yet inconspicuous or “cryptic” species often escape detection and public awareness, limiting management responses. We investigated the freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii, likely native to China and now present on six continents, through a 22‐month multilingual online survey

Incorporating environmental DNA metabarcoding for improved benthic biodiversity and habitat mapping
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Seafloor imagery is commonly used to collect information about the distribution of benthic organisms in order to generate habitat and biodiversity maps. Recent advances in genomics (e.g., environmental DNA; eDNA) show potential to complement video surveys for habitat mapping, but there have been few examples testing this.
