Colonial wars and trade restrictions: Fighting for exclusive trading rights

Canadian Journal of Economics/Revue canadienne d'économique, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper develops a model of colonial wars and trade restrictions, in which two metropolises compete for control over a colony's trade policy. In equilibrium, the metropolis that gains control can improve its terms of trade by restricting its rival's access to colonial trade.

Functional homogenization of terrestrial mammals outside protected areas in the Hengduan Mountains, China

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite the crucial role of human impacts on biodiversity loss, many assessments of this loss focus on single metrics, such as species richness, and overlook the multidimensional effects of human activities. Because of its importance to ecosystem functioning, we investigated the functional diversity of medium‐ and large‐sized mammal ...

Overlap of nonbreeding wandering albatrosses with fisheries and implications for colony‐specific population trajectories at South Georgia

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bycatch in fisheries is one of the most serious threats to pelagic seabirds, causing major population declines. Mitigation measures can reduce bycatch substantially, but many fisheries fail to apply best practices, and seabird mortality remains high.

Estimating the total mortality of seabirds following a marine heat wave

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Marine heat waves detrimentally affect a range of marine species, including seabirds, and are increasing in frequency and severity. When thousands of dead seabirds wash up on beaches, the public becomes concerned. However, the number of dead birds recorded on beaches is only a fraction of the total mortality; most birds perish at sea.
