Uncovering correlates of decline and critical refuges for a threatened terrestrial mammal

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Globally, the geographic ranges of numerous species are contracting. Identifying spatiotemporal patterns of threat impact can illuminate why species decline in some parts of their range but persist in others. We developed a correlative approach to identify species’ response thresholds and locate ecological refuge areas associated with ...

Translocation effects on regional and local population viability and connectivity

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Translocations and reintroductions aim to improve the viability of isolated populations and promote connectivity for large carnivores. However, there is no established framework for assessing their success. We used the Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) in western and central Europe to assess the impact of translocations on the viability of six ...

ABSTRACT Despite extensive research on policy diffusion, the ways in which policy attention influences this process remain underexplored. This study addressed this gap by distinguishing between three types of policy attention—political speeches, policy issuance and field visits—and investigating their differential impacts when delivered by central and ...

The Effects of Policy Success Versus Failure Narratives

Policy Studies Journal, Volume 54, Issue 3, August 2026.

Prospects of Constraining Internal Variability for Multi‐Annual to Multi‐Decadal Predictions in a Perfect‐Model Framework

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract Initialized climate prediction systems provide forecasts on seasonal‐to‐decadal timescales, but their computational cost has motivated the development of cheaper alternatives such as analog‐based approaches. Recent studies suggest that constraining large climate model ensembles using analogs of past sea surface temperature (SST) can yield ...
