Habitat loss and fragmentation for an old‐forest species is driven by severe wildfire and drought

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We examined the long‐term trends in habitat for California spotted owls and attributed habitat changes to specific drivers. We found that the 43% decline in habitat from 1985 to 2022 could primarily be attributed to wildfire and drought. Habitat patches also became smaller and more isolated over time.

The Effect of Mine‐Related Groundwater Use and Management on Surface Water in the Middle Humboldt River Basin

open access: yesGroundwater, EarlyView.
Abstract The Humboldt River, in Northern Nevada, USA, is a source of water for agricultural, municipal, and industrial uses. Mining has been active in Nevada since the 1800s. The recognition that groundwater withdrawal for many purposes—including mining—has the potential to deplete streamflow has prompted studies of the Humboldt River Basin.

Protection status and environmental gradients shape butterfly assemblages in an East African tropical ecosystem

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Observed butterfly richness was highest in moderately protected areas. During the dry season, vegetation productivity increased butterfly richness while human population density reduced it. Moderately protected areas supported high butterfly abundance and a high proportion of host‐specialist species.

Incorporating burn probability into spatial prioritization of woodland caribou habitat restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Habitat disturbance is a major driver of population declines of woodland caribou in Canada. Habitat restoration is a critical component of a successful, long‐term approach to caribou recovery; however, with limited resources, it is important to target areas where restoration efforts will provide maximum benefits to caribou.

Alluvial ridge morphology on avulsing rivers

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alluvial ridges are built by preferential channel‐belt deposition and control river avulsions, yet a systematic analysis of their morphology has been missing. To address this gap, we analyse a globally distributed dataset of 8970 alluvial ridge flanks on 14 different rivers.
