A validated 3D point‐cloud analysis workflow for the creation of seagrass canopy height models

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Seagrasses support highly productive ecosystems in both temperate and tropical waters and provide essential ecosystem services. Despite their importance, the vertical structure of seagrasses (i.e. the canopy) remains poorly characterised at the microscale, even though it is a strong predictor of ecological processes that influence both ...

Opium Cultivation Imperilling Endangered Species in Northern Laos

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
To avoid government eradication efforts, farmers in northeastern Laos shifted opium cultivation deep into a national park, causing a > 1000% increase in protected forest cleared for the crop between 2018 and 2022. This displacement directly threatened endangered species like white‐cheeked gibbons, elephants, and dholes by causing a rise in hunting ...

Bureaucrat assignments as instruments of political control: Theory and evidence from land administration officials in India

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper investigates how politicians use the assignment of officials to geographical posts—a personnel system found in many countries—as a system of incentives to control, and possibly corrupt, bureaucratic behavior. The argument is developed with a matching model and tested with a nationwide survey of Indian officials who administer land ...

A Review and Critique of Methods and Knowledge Gaps in Quantifying Spillover Effects from Protected Areas

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The sustainability of area‐based conservation initiatives depends on their value to society. Conservation often focuses inside protected areas, but the impacts of protected areas beyond their boundaries (spillovers) are critical for their social license.

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.
