The APOGEE Data Release 16 Spectral Line List [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The updated H-band spectral line list (from \lambda 15,000 - 17,000\AA) adopted by the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) for the SDSS IV Data Release 16 (DR16) is presented here. The APOGEE line list is a combination of atomic and molecular lines with data from laboratory, theoretical, and astrophysical sources. Oscillator

A framework for evaluating the impact of the IUCN Red List of threatened species

open access: yesConservation Biology, 2019
The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species, a species extinction risk assessment tool, has been guiding conservation efforts for over 5 decades.

A method for making Red List assessments with herbarium data and distribution models for species‐rich plant taxa: Lessons from the Neotropical genus Guatteria (Annonaceae)

open access: yesPlants, People, Planet, 2023
Societal Impact Statement Despite its importance, biodiversity is declining rapidly. To adequately prioritise conservation efforts, we need to know how threatened species actually are.

Conservation assessments and Red Listing of the endemic Moroccan flora (monocotyledons) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Morocco constitutes an important centre of plant diversity and speciation in the Mediterranean Basin. However, numerous species are threatened by issues ranging from human activities to global climatic change.

Clusters rich in red supergiants [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy in Focus, as presented at the IAU XXIX General Assembly, 2015. Proceedings of the IAU, Volume 29B, 2016, pp. 461-463, 2018
In the past few years, several clusters containing large numbers of red supergiants have been discovered. These clusters are amongst the most massive young clusters known in the Milky Way, with stellar masses reaching a few $10^4\:$M$_\odot$. They have provided us, for the first time, with large homogeneous samples of red supergiants of a given age ...

Incorporating citizen science into IUCN Red List assessments

open access: yesConservation Biology
Many citizen scientists are highly motivated to help address the current extinction crisis. Their work is making valuable contributions to protecting species by raising awareness, identifying species occurrences, assessing population trends, and ...

Accelerating and standardising IUCN Red List assessments with sRedList [PDF]

open access: yesBiological Conservation
The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species underpins much decision-making in conservation and plays a key role in monitoring the status and trends of biodiversity. However, the shortage of funds and assessor capacity slows the uptake of novel data and techniques, hampering its currency, applicability, consistency and long-term viability.

Patterns of Extinction Risk and Threat for Marine Vertebrates and Habitat-Forming Species in the Tropical Eastern Pacific [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Marine conservation activities around the globe are largely undertaken in the absence of comprehensive species-specific information. To address this gap, complete regional species assemblages of major marine taxa are being progressively assessed against ...

European Red List of Marine Fishes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The European Red List is a review of the conservation status of European species according to IUCN regional Red Listing guidelines. It identifies those species that are threatened with extinction at the regional level, so that appropriate ...

Estimating IUCN Red List population reduction: JARA—A decision‐support tool applied to pelagic sharks

open access: yesConservation Letters, 2019
The International Union for Conservation of Nature's (IUCN) Red List is the global standard for quantifying extinction risk but assessing population reduction (criterion A) of wide‐ranging, long‐lived marine taxa remains difficult and controversial.
