Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.We combined arboreal camera trapping and non‐invasive genetic tagging to estimate group size in the critically endangered northern muriqui (Brachyteles hypoxanthus) in Brazil's Atlantic Forest. Both methods provided complementary insights into group size and demographic structure, while differing in their cost‐effectiveness and sampling constraints ...

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Land cover change that leads to increased nutrient and sediment runoff is an important driver of change in coral reef ecosystems. In this study, we combined satellite remote sensing and field monitoring to assess concomitant changes in watershed land cover and coral cover in northeastern Puerto Rico in 2000–2015.

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Invasive alien species are a major threat for biodiversity worldwide and effective monitoring is paramount to inform management. In this study we used a multi‐season occupancy model to assess probability of detection between camera traps and passive acoustic recorders for feral pigs (Sus scrofa) during 1 year of data collection.

Seeing Heritage Management through Systems Science
Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Heritage is influenced by a range of multifaceted factors, such as global issues, power dynamics, entangled legal frameworks and multilayered needs. The interplay of these elements creates a challenging environment for heritage managers, who must navigate a web of stakeholders with diverse interests and values. This paper suggests that systems
