Advancing at‐risk species recovery planning in an era of rapid ecological change with a transparent, flexible, and expert‐engaged approach

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 3, June 2025.
Abstract In the face of unprecedented ecological changes, the conservation community needs strategies to recover species at risk of extinction. On the Island of Maui, we collaborated with species experts and managers to assist with climate‐resilient recovery planning for 36 at‐risk native plant species by identifying priority areas for the management ...

Strengthening Amazon conservation through community‐based voluntary patrolling

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 3, June 2025.
Abstract Globally, environmental crimes are a major threat to biodiversity and the livelihood of local populations. Community‐based protection of natural resources, which involves local people in surveillance and enforcement, is an important complement to the government‐led command‐and‐control policing approach.

Too much and not enough data: Challenges and solutions for generating information in freshwater research and monitoring

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract Evaluating progress toward achieving freshwater conservation and sustainability goals requires transforming diverse types of data into useful information for scientists, managers, and other interest groups. Despite substantial increases in the volume of freshwater data collected worldwide, many regions and ecosystems still lack sufficient data

Capacity and capability of remote sensing to inform invasive plant species management in the Pacific Islands region

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 1, February 2025.
Abstract The Pacific Islands region is home to several of the world's biodiversity hotspots, yet its unique flora and fauna are under threat because of biological invasions. These invasions are likely to proliferate as human activity increases and large‐scale natural disturbances unfold, exacerbated by climate change. Remote sensing data and techniques

Evil and allies: Opportunistic gulls as both spreaders and sentinels of antibiotic‐resistant bacteria in human‐transformed landscapes

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 61, Issue 11, Page 2809-2821, November 2024.
The integration of GPS data, pathogen testing and network analyses can shed further light on pathogen dynamics by creating spatial risk maps and identifying ARB sources. In combination with complementary molecular epidemiology techniques within a One Health framework, our approach can emerge as an important tool for monitoring ARB dynamics within ...

Clustered and rotating designs as a strategy to obtain precise detection rates in camera trapping studies

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 61, Issue 7, Page 1649-1661, July 2024.
Our research provides a guideline for wildlife managers and researchers to improve the precision of camera trap detection rates and optimize resource allocation. In general, the study design should accommodate the behaviour of the target species (e.g.

Systematic nature positive markets

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 3, June 2024.
Abstract Environmental markets are a rapidly emerging tool to mobilize private funding to incentivize landholders to undertake more sustainable land management. How units of biodiversity in these markets are measured and subsequently traded creates key challenges ecologically and economically because it determines whether environmental markets can ...

A data‐driven approach to multiple‐stressor impact assessment for a marine protected area

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 2, April 2024.
Abstract The coastal environment is not managed in a way that considers the impact of cumulative threats, despite being subject to threats from all realms (marine, land, and atmosphere). Relationships between threats and species are often nonlinear; thus, current (linear) approaches to estimating the impact of threats may be misleading.

Extinction risk of the world's freshwater mammals

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 1, February 2024.
Abstract The continued loss of freshwater habitats poses a significant threat to global biodiversity. We reviewed the extinction risk of 166 freshwater aquatic and semiaquatic mammals—a group rarely documented as a collective. We used the International Union for the Conservation of Nature Red List of Threatened Species categories as of December 2021 to
