Greenwashing in the Spotlight: Synthesising Evidence on Unethical Environmental Claims and Future Pathways

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Firms are experiencing mounting pressure to report their environmental impact. Rather than disclosing their actual performance, however, some are engaging in unethical business (i.e., greenwashing) practices. Prior studies have contributed significantly to the greenwashing literature from varied perspectives, but a comprehensive understanding ...

How to reduce sampling error in species population monitoring: from theory to methods

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Progress towards national and international targets to halt and reverse declines in species' abundances will be assessed using multispecies indicators (MSIs). A distinction must be drawn between two MSIs. One is the ideal, but unobserved, MSI that would have been measured had all species and sites within the scope of the target been sampled.

Rising, falling, stalling: complex biodiversity trajectories in English rivers

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Freshwater ecosystems face intense anthropogenic pressures. Yet in parts of Europe, including the UK, studies have documented widespread increases in macroinvertebrate diversity following investments to improve water quality. More recent analyses, however, suggest that these gains have slowed, plateaued, or even reversed. Despite increasing recognition

Taxon‐dependent multisite species turnover in fragmented habitats: comparing zeta diversity across birds, butterflies, and cursorial hunting spiders

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Habitat fragmentation alters species diversity and reshapes community composition. However, conventional pairwise approaches to compositional variation (i.e. beta diversity metrics) do not explicitly characterize how species sharing or turnover change with the number of habitat patches.

A NEW APPROACH FOR ASSESSING THE COSTS OF LIVING WITH WILDLIFE IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES [PDF]

open access: yes
The costs of living with wildlife are assessed using Namibian subsistence farmers willingness to pay (WTP) for deterrents to attacks on crops and livestock as a measure of damage costs.

Addressing human–elephant conflicts in Taita Taveta County, Kenya: Integrating species distribution modeling into targeted conservation strategies

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation
Increasing competition for space and resources at the agriculture-conservation interface poses critical challenges to wildlife conservation, often intensifying human–wildlife conflicts throughout the globe, including Kenya.

From patterns to predictions: a framework for the spatial epidemiology of wildlife diseases

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Wildlife diseases pose a significant threat to biodiversity conservation, public health, and livestock. Spatial epidemiology provides a robust framework to understand disease dynamics and guide policy and management. However, the rapid proliferation of spatial methods has largely occurred in isolation across disciplines, leaving the field without a ...

Wolves and humans both shape patterns of deer browsing in a temperate forest ecosystem of Central Europe

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Predator–prey interactions can trigger behavioural responses in ungulates, influencing their space‐use and foraging behaviour and, in turn, indirectly affecting browsing pressure. Changes in browsing pressure can affect plant recruitment and species composition, shaping forest regeneration through predator‐mediated trophic cascades.
