Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 2, February 2026.Lower forest harvesting in Natura 2000 sites may align with socio‐economic barriers often claimed by local communities, but protection does not influence vulnerability to other disturbances. In a general scenario of reduced forest harvesting in the region, we argue that differences in harvesting due to protection are statistically significant but ...

Key drivers of at‐vessel mortality in demersal sharks
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract Chondrichthyans are highly vulnerable to fisheries overexploitation, and postcapture mortality poses a significant threat to most species. Global bycatch mitigation guidelines recommend adopting hierarchical decision‐making approaches tailored to species‐specific vulnerabilities and socioeconomic and regulatory contexts.

People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 9, Page 2068-2084, September 2025.Abstract Human–predator coexistence is a complex and dynamic relationship influenced by a variety of social–ecological factors. Recognising conflict as an inherent aspect of coexistence, rather than merely a problem to be solved, is crucial. This literature review examines how a range of factors contributes to human coexistence with predators.

People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 4, Page 871-886, April 2025.Abstract Rural communities in Amazonia rely on harvesting Mauritia flexuosa fruit, a dominant peatland palm, for their subsistence and income. However, these palms are felled to harvest the fruits, which has led to reduced resource availability due to the pressure exerted by the increasing fruit demand.
