Abstract Climate change is challenging the ability of protected areas (PAs) to meet their objectives. To improve PA planning, we developed a framework for assessing PA vulnerability to climate change based on consideration of potential climate change impacts on species and their habitats and resource use.

Outdoor recreation alters terrestrial vertebrate scavenger assemblage and carrion removal in a protected Mediterranean wetland

Animal Conservation, Volume 26, Issue 5, Page 633-641, October 2023., 2023
We found that outdoor recreation alters the vertebrate scavenger assemblage and carrion removal. Larger scavenger species are most affected, especially raptors. Furthermore, human activities promote the presence of non‐native species in the ecosystem. Therefore, areas of restricted access are essential to preserve biodiversity and ecological processes ...

Pluralizing environmental values for urban planning: How to uncover the diversity of imaginaries about socio‐natures from Vitoria‐Gasteiz (Basque Country, Spain)

People and Nature, Volume 5, Issue 4, Page 1262-1283, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Cities have pushed forward re‐naturing initiatives in local planning agendas. Discourses and rationales for such interventions tend to follow instrumental framings often narrowed down to the economic, health and ecological benefits of nature's contributions to people (NCP).
