PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Herbarium collections are powerful, yet underutilized, tools for global biodiversity conservation and protected area management. By integrating digitized herbarium records with existing biodiversity data, previously unknown plant species were uncovered, exposing critical gaps in conservation knowledge.

They're Out There, You Know: Sea Turtle Sightings and Strandings in Canadian Pacific Waters
Ecology and EvolutionPacific sea turtle populations primarily inhabit subtropical and tropical waters, making sightings at the edge of their range in colder high‐latitude regions of the Canadian Pacific particularly uncommon and even rare. This paper presents a comprehensive

Using accelerometers for tracking loggerhead and green sea turtle behaviour
Animal BiotelemetryAbstract Background Understanding animal behaviour is critical for the design of effective conservation and management strategies. Animal-borne tri-axial accelerometers constitute a type of biologging device which have the potential to provide continuous high-resolution behavioural data.

Breaking down seagrass fragmentation in a marine heatwave impacted World Heritage Area
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Habitat fragmentation can exacerbate the impacts of habitat loss but is rarely quantified in marine environments. Using satellite‐derived habitat maps, we identify widespread seagrass fragmentation following a marine heatwave that contributed to a dramatic shift in seascape structure in the Shark Bay World Heritage Area.

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.The endangered tri‐spine horseshoe crab (Tachypleus tridentatus), a “living fossil” crucial to coastal ecology and biomedical research, is experiencing severe population declines. Effective conservation requires efficient monitoring, which traditional methods cannot deliver at scale. We develop an integrated UAV deep learning framework tailored to this

Identity Play: Middle School Youths' Provisional Self‐Making in Horizon‐Expanding STEM Spaces
Science Education, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study introduces identity play as an analytic construct for science education to explore improvisational dimensions of middle school students' STEM identity development in multiple out‐of‐school learning experiences focused on environmental problem‐solving.

New Directions for Student Services, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article introduces a conceptual framework for Indigenous college student identity development, addressing the limitations of mainstream student development theories rooted in Western, Eurocentric worldviews. Drawing on Tribal Critical Race Theory and relationality, we propose four guiding questions—Where are we? Who are we?
