What climate adaptation can learn from evolutionary adaptation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Evolutionary and climate adaptation both describe how complex systems respond to environmental change, either via natural selection or deliberate human choices. Although adaptation in both contexts is expected to produce favorable outcomes, it can also result in maladaptation—ineffective, unintended, or harmful outcomes. As an emerging area of

Evaluating a structured expert elicitation approach for adaptive conservation management based on lessons from five years in practice

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Adaptive management of threatened species relies on having ex ante estimates of species’ responses to different interventions. Structured expert elicitation is often used to generate these estimates, but comparisons of these expert‐predicted outcomes with observed results are rare.

A methodological assessment and reflection on member checking as a form of participant validation for conservation social science

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Qualitative approaches are increasingly applied in conservation social science, yet methodological reflection remains limited. Member checking, a process of returning findings to participants for feedback, is widely recognized outside conservation as a means to enhance rigor and reciprocity, but it is rarely reported in conservation research ...

The obsolescence of protected area categories in a polycrisis world

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Current global conservation models face significant limitations in addressing the global polycrisis, and the constraints of the International Union for Conservation of Nature protected area (PA) classification system are part of the issue. The principles of the new conservation paradigm—governance, equity, and interculturality—are not viable ...

Pour une gestion participative des connaissances

, 2009
Toute gestion des connaissances repose volontairement ou involontairement sur trois composantes : les structures organisationnelles, les communautés de pratique, et les dispositifs matériels. Ces trois composantes sont à la fois interdépendantes et résistantes les unes aux autres, c'est-à-dire qu'aucune d'elles ne peut se substituer à une autre.

Observer coverage and interaction rates determine the choice between design‐based and machine learning bycatch estimators for rare species

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Robust estimates of the magnitude of protected species bycatch are essential for effective fisheries management and marine conservation. Existing bycatch estimation methods typically struggle to accurately and precisely estimate the bycatch of rare species as a result of the statistical assumptions necessary to overcome infrequent encounters ...

Risk reduction, rangeland use, and the future of human–carnivore coexistence

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Efforts to reduce livestock losses to large carnivores are widely regarded as essential for promoting human–carnivore coexistence. Predator‐proof enclosures, compensation programs, improved livestock guarding, and real‐time predator alert systems can reduce depredation and retaliatory killing while enhancing pastoralist livelihoods.

Risk management strategies in higher education

European Management Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Higher education centres are facing escalating risks, such as increasing competition from a growing number of higher education organisations, as well as greater exposure to more complex regulatory frameworks and external evaluations. Consequently, university risk management has assumed increasing significance.
