Evolution of research on global amphibian declines
Abstract In the late 1980s, the scientific community became aware of severe, enigmatic amphibian population declines. These declines triggered a wave of research focused on quantifying their extent and identifying key drivers. We used text‐analysis techniques, including topic modeling and geoparsing, to examine the evolution of research focused on ...

Changes in Key Biodiversity Area networks following national comprehensive assessments
Making comprehensive assessments of Key Biodiversity Area (KBA) networks in a country greatly increases their number and area. Countries that have not yet done so will be missing about half of these globally significant sites and missing the opportunity to get 30 × 30 conservation in the right places. Abstract Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) are sites of

Evaluating protected areas’ coverage of threats to terrestrial biodiversity
Abstract Protected areas (PAs) are vital for biodiversity conservation and have expanded globally. However, increasing pressures on biodiversity make it difficult to achieve conservation goals. Using threat probability maps based on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List and the World Database of Protected Areas, we analyzed the ...

Influence of funding fads and donor interests on international aid for conservation in Madagascar
Abstract Tens of billions of dollars in official development assistance have been spent over the past three decades to address the increasingly rapid loss of biodiversity globally. Despite this expenditure, detailed knowledge of who has provided these funds and who has used them, for what purpose, where, why, and with what consequences remains limited.

Quantifying exposure of amphibian species to heat waves, cold spells, and droughts
Abstract Globally, amphibians face severe threats, such as climate change and associated extreme events. Our goal was to quantify global amphibian exposure to 3 classes of extreme events: heat waves, cold spells, and droughts. We used the MERRA‐2 extreme climate events data and the standardized precipitation–evapotranspiration index database to ...

Collecting data from local sources markedly further strengthens global biodiversity databases by adding species not previously included in international datasets. Furthermore, the addition of these data helps to understand spatial and temporal biases that potentially influence abundance trends at both national and global levels.
