300 Years of Degradation in Wales Estuaries and Coasts
Natural Resources Forum, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The world's oceans are in a severe state of degradation, yet our understanding of that degradation is often based on changes observed only in the past 20–50 years. This narrow view leads to marine conservation efforts that aim to preserve already degraded ecosystems, shaped by shifted ecological baselines.

Fostering a network for creating and implementing open education resources in ecology
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Formal undergraduate research experiences (UREs) have provided students with authentic research experiences in ecology for decades, but accessibility to these resources is inherently limited, as evidenced during the COVID‐19 pandemic. Moreover, UREs often do not reflect the diversity of locations of current ecological publications. Open online

Asia Pacific Viewpoint, EarlyView.ABSTRACT What does it mean to ‘do no harm’ in academic research? ‘Do no harm’ ethics emphasizes the responsibility of researchers to mitigate the emotional, physical, and political harms that may arise through participation in research. These concerns are heightened in conflict zones, where access constraints and intersecting vulnerabilities shape the ...

Emerging applications of large language models in ecology and conservation science
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Large language models (LLMs) mark a major development in artificial intelligence, with potentially transformative implications for ecology and conservation science. Built on advanced deep‐learning architectures, these models can support a wide range of tasks. We reviewed emerging applications of LLMs, drawing on the wider scientific literature

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Qualitative approaches are increasingly applied in conservation social science, yet methodological reflection remains limited. Member checking, a process of returning findings to participants for feedback, is widely recognized outside conservation as a means to enhance rigor and reciprocity, but it is rarely reported in conservation research ...

Intact coastal nursery rearing amid climate‐driven phenological shifts in threatened salmon
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Literature linking phenology to climate has proliferated in recent decades and shows that climate change has reorganized seasonal opportunities worldwide. However, this literature often quantifies changes in point measures of timing (e.g., beginnings and peaks) without context about duration (e.g., rearing season length) or performance (e.g ...
