Exposure of wetlands important for nonbreeding waterbirds to sea‐level rise in the Mediterranean

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 6, December 2024.
Abstract Sea‐level rise (SLR) is expected to cause major changes to coastal wetlands, which are among the world's most vulnerable ecosystems and are critical for nonbreeding waterbirds. Because strategies for adaptation to SLR, such as nature‐based solutions and designation of protected areas, can locally reduce the negative effects of coastal flooding

Identification, spatial distribution, and associated factors of urban protected areas in China

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 6, December 2024.
Abstract The increasing proximity between protected areas (PAs) and urban areas, which can lead to urban protected areas (UPAs), is now commonplace. Use of Euclidean distance to measure the distance between PAs and cities has not correctly portrayed the spatial relationship between PAs and cities.

Diversity and dominance in bird assemblages across habitats in the Ñeembucú wetlands complex

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 56, Issue 5, September 2024.
We analyzed how the composition of neotropical bird assemblages vary among habitats (riparian forests, natural grasslands, savannas, and anthropized sites) in the Ñeembucú Wetlands Complex, the largest wetland system in Paraguay. We found a high bird richness (209 species) that contrasted with a pattern of dominance by a small set of 16 species that ...

An assessment of future rewilding potential in the United Kingdom

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 4, August 2024.
Abstract Restoring ecosystems is an imperative for addressing biodiversity loss and climate change, and achieving the targets of the Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. One form of restoration, rewilding, may have particular promise but may also be precluded by requirements for other forms of land use now or in the future.
