Impact of parameterization in multiple acoustic index comparisons: practical cases in terrestrial and underwater soundscapes

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 12, Issue 3, Page 388-400, June 2026.
Parameter choices in acoustic analyses (sampling frequency, FFT size and window overlap) strongly influence multivariate soundscape separation. Using terrestrial and coral reef recordings, we show that these settings can exaggerate or mask ecological differences, emphasizing the need for parameter sensitivity testing and transparent reporting in ...

Functional homogenization of terrestrial mammals outside protected areas in the Hengduan Mountains, China

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Despite the crucial role of human impacts on biodiversity loss, many assessments of this loss focus on single metrics, such as species richness, and overlook the multidimensional effects of human activities. Because of its importance to ecosystem functioning, we investigated the functional diversity of medium‐ and large‐sized mammal ...

Calibration of the species threat abatement and restoration metric's threat abatement component in a Costa Rican landscape

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Achieving global conservation policy goals requires the ability to set and measure progress toward science‐based targets for biodiversity. The species threat abatement and restoration (STAR) metric was developed to enable actors to set science‐based targets for species.

Meta‐analysis on the effects of composition and configuration of landscape on the functional diversity of tropical mammals

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
Our findings demonstrate that mammal functional richness in tropical regions requires integrating habitat amount and landscape configuration into land‐use planning. Conservation strategies should move beyond setting targets for total habitat area and explicitly incorporate configuration metrics that promote heterogeneity and functional connectivity. In

Finding floral and faunal species richness optima among active fire regimes

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Changing fire regimes have important implications for biodiversity and challenge traditional conservation approaches that rely on historical conditions as proxies for ecological integrity. This historical‐centric approach becomes increasingly tenuous under climate change, necessitating direct tests of environmental impacts on biodiversity.

Mangrove Pollinator Functional Diversity Decreases With Patch Size and Landscape Anthropization

Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 5, September 2025.
This study explores how land use changes impact pollinator diversity in mangrove ecosystems, focusing on the effects of patch size and landscape anthropization on pollinators with different functional traits. Results show that smaller mangrove patches can support higher pollinator abundance, richness, and diversity; however, overall pollinator metrics ...
