Area‐restricted search under realistic constraints
Oikos, EarlyView.Abstract Area‐restricted search (ARS) is one of the most influential and widely used concepts in foraging theory, capturing a simple rule by which animals intensify local search following a resource encounter. Because ARS performs well in many spatially structured environments, it serves as a basic model for interpreting movement patterns across taxa ...

Demonstrating limitations of area‐restricted search as a foraging mechanism
Oikos, EarlyView.Foragers often rely on simple behavioral rules that translate local environmental cues into movement decisions. One of the most widespread rules is area‐restricted search (ARS), in which movement becomes less directional following resource encounters. ARS is generally considered effective for exploiting clustered resources, yet recent conceptual work ...

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract The town of Gamba in southwest Gabon represents an exceptional example of how the development of an extractive industry (in this case oil production) may impact wild meat consumption in an area of global importance for biodiversity. Studies in the 1990s identified an active wild meat trade; however, no studies have been undertaken since, and ...

Narratives of ‘home landscapes’ guide stewardship practices among Swedish forest owners
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Production forests play an important role in addressing many of our current sustainability challenges. Therefore, how these forests are managed and what motivates the people who are managing them are important for sustainability. 47 per cent of forests in Europe are privately owned.

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Despite growing investment in restoration, weak accountability and poor biodiversity monitoring mean many projects fail to achieve ecological recovery. The Global Biodiversity Standard (TGBS) offers a practical way to ensure that restoration finance delivers measurable gains for nature.
