The visible and invisible drivers of biocultural loss in the Amazon

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The Amazon is rapidly approaching an ecological tipping point driven by deforestation, forest degradation and global climate change. These are visible issues that receive increasing political and public attention. However, the accelerating biocultural loss in the Amazon, including the extinction of Indigenous languages, the disruption of ...

A process‐based social‐ecological systems framework for studying the effects of human recreation on wildlife

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the effects of human recreation on wildlife is fundamental for effective management and coexistence, where natural landscapes increasingly serve a dual purpose: protecting biodiversity while providing recreational opportunities. Social‐ecological systems frameworks, which acknowledge the reciprocal links between people and nature,

Lacking data? No worries! How synthetic images can alleviate image scarcity in wildlife surveys: A case study with muskox (Ovibos moschatus)

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study investigates the integration of synthetic imagery, created with diffusion‐based models, to supplement limited training data and improve muskox (Ovibos moschatus) detection in zero‐shot (ZS) and few‐shot (FS) settings. ZS models detected more than 80% of muskoxen in real images, confirming the potential of synthetic data as a substitute for ...

Accounting for animal movement during aerial imaging surveys

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Animals are not stationary during aerial surveys; if their movements are related to the movement of the aerial platform, then bias can be introduced into subsequent population count estimates. We sought to establish a framework for assessing the impacts of animal movement on count error and platform bias by comparing aggregated counts and relative ...
