Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.

Pest‐preservation paradox among insects

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
The pest‐preservation paradox is a non‐binary perspective that insects range from those that are harmful and requiring management on the one side, to those requiring conservation intervention on the opposite end of the spectrum. Importantly, the vast majority of insects occur somewhere in the center of the two extremes, and their position along the ...

Successful phased‐release reintegration of captive‐origin cheetah for metapopulation supplementation

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Conservation programs increasingly require consideration of rehabilitated individuals for translocations to reduce pressure on highly threatened wild populations. This case‐study evaluates the short‐term translocation success of captive‐origin cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) after phased‐release reintegration into the wild in South Africa.

In this paper, I first present an evocative autoethnographic narrative that foregrounds the emotional toll of losing solidarity with a close childhood friend.

Accelerating Platform User Growth: Pinduoduo's Multi‐Motivational Selfish Referral Strategy

Information Systems Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Referral strategies, whereby existing platform users recruit new users and thereby strengthen same‐side network effects, have long been central to digital platforms' efforts to grow the installed user base. Current referral strategies often require the referee to complete a transaction as a prerequisite for the referrer to receive the reward ...

Optimizing equity and efficiency in the aerial firefighting resource allocation problem

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This study addresses the aerial firefighting resource allocation problem, formulated as the strategic prepositioning of a heterogeneous aerial firefighting fleet across capacity‐constrained airbases. A novel bi‐objective model is proposed that simultaneously optimizes efficiency (aggregate risk‐weighted accessibility) and equity (minimized ...

The Agencies of the European Union: A Glimmer of Hope for Enlargement?

JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract In recent years, the process of EU enlargement has become increasingly difficult.

A different approach to integration must therefore be used.
