Anthropogenic or Natural Dispersal: Case of the Spiny-Tailed Iguanas (<i>Ctenosaura</i>) on Clarion Island, Mexico. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Species can colonize oceanic islands by both natural and human‐assisted dispersal and human‐caused species introductions have had catastrophic effects on ecosystems around the world. The Spiny‐tailed Iguanas inhabiting Clarion Island were previously considered introduced. Molecular data and analyses support iguanas' arrival on Clarion Island by natural

Integrating local ecological knowledge into systematic conservation planning for seahorse conservation. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Successful long‐term conservation relies on strategic planning for pragmatic actions to mitigate threats. Prioritizing actions and areas to support conservation goals in the most cost‐effective scenario becomes crucial in resource‐limited environments. However, planning and management can be challenging in data‐limited contexts.

Assessing human well‐being constructs with environmental and equity aspects: A review of the landscape

People and Nature, Volume 5, Issue 6, Page 1756-1773, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Decades of theory and scholarship on the concept of human well‐being have informed a proliferation of approaches to assess well‐being and support public policy aimed at sustainability and improving quality of life. Human well‐being is multidimensional, and well‐being emerges when the dimensions and interrelationships interact as a system.

Métodos de seleção granulométrica com foco na resistência à deformação permanente

Transportes, 2016
A granulometria de uma mistura asfáltica tem papel relevante em sua resistência à deformação permanente. Resultados práticos mostram que a simples obediência às faixas do DNIT não garantem resistência a tal defeito. Neste trabalho, avalia-se e compara-se

Stringency and timeliness of COVID‐19 policies in managing the pandemic in Queensland: Lessons from 2020

World Medical &Health Policy, Volume 15, Issue 4, Page 570-586, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Queensland experienced relatively low case numbers during the first year of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic. This may be due to timely, stringent policies, yet there is currently no research evaluating this link, despite the state government playing such a primary role in the pandemic response.

The evaluation of men introduced in midwifery in the United Kingdom: A gender perspective

Sexuality, Gender &Policy, Volume 6, Issue 4, Page 180-197, November 2023., 2023
Abstract To explore the role of pilot tests in developing gender policies, this study investigates their use of policy‐making for the introduction of male midwives in the United Kingdom. A literature review was performed, and data that contradicted the statements of researchers studying male midwives or male midwives who had participated in the pilots ...

Incorporating multidimensional behavior into a risk management tool for a critically endangered and migratory species

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 5, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Conservation of migratory species exhibiting wide‐ranging and multidimensional behaviors is challenged by management efforts that only utilize horizontal movements or produce static spatial–temporal products. For the deep‐diving, critically endangered eastern Pacific leatherback turtle, tools that predict where turtles have high risks of ...
