Climate refugia identification as high‐priority areas to improve ecosystem conservation in central Chile

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Climate refugia through the integration of topographic and biodiversity features offer a practical method to expand protection networks in central Chile. Our results show that the inclusion of relatively small climate refugia areas to protection networks can greatly improve ecosystem representation, advancing toward meeting Target 3 of the Kunming ...

Local environment shapes habitat suitability of the endangered mint Dicerandra cornutissima

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Using a fine‐scale ecological niche model at 250 m resolution, we identified suitable habitat for the extremelynarrow endemic Dicerandra cornutissima across its known and surrounding range. Field validation confirmed characteristic habitat at predicted suitable sites, while gap analysis showed that only 26% of suitable habitat occurs within protected ...

Connecting conservation communities: From social network analysis to practical application

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
This study explores how social network mapping and analysis can be applied to support community‐based conservation practice, and what benefits and challenges emerge in doing so, enlisting the Northern Rivers, New South Wales, Australia as a case study. Drawing on desktop analysis, 51 semi‐structured interviews, and 50 meetings and open interviews, the ...
