An emerging coastal wetland management dilemma between mangrove expansion and shorebird conservation. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol, 2022
Abstract Coastal wetlands around the world have been degraded by human activities. Global declines in the extent of important coastal wetlands, including mangroves, salt marshes, and tidal flats, necessitate mitigation and restoration efforts. However, some well‐meaning management actions, particularly mangrove afforestation, can inadvertently cause ...

Global drivers of mangrove loss in protected areas. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol
Abstract Despite increasing efforts and investment in mangrove conservation, mangrove cover continues to decline globally. The extent to which protected area (PA) management effectively prevents mangrove loss globally across differing management objectives and governance types is not well understood.

Combining otolith chemistry and genetics to infer the population structure of yellow snapper Lutjanus argentiventris

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Developing a metapopulation framework contributes to the understanding of spatial processes and structures in populations, providing basic information for conservation biology. However, the extent to which the metapopulation structure differs geographically and across life history stages is unexplored for most fishes.

Litter‐trapping tank bromeliads in five different forests: Carbon and nutrient pools and fluxes

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 54, Issue 1, Page 170-180, January 2022., 2022
Bromeliads are the most abundant litter‐trapping plants in Neotropical forest canopies. We analyzed the carbon and nutrient pools and fluxes in tank bromeliads in different forests along an elevation gradient. Only a small percentage of the annual litterfall (<3%) is trapped by tank bromeliads.

Spatial cost–benefit analysis of blue restoration and factors driving net benefits globally

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 6, Page 1850-1860, December 2021., 2021
Abstract Marine coastal ecosystems, commonly referred to as blue ecosystems, provide valuable services to society but are under increasing threat worldwide due to a variety of drivers, including eutrophication, development, land‐use change, land reclamation, and climate change.

Identifying the possibilities and pitfalls of conducting IUCN Red List assessments from remotely sensed habitat information based on insights from poorly known Cuban mammals

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 5, Page 1598-1614, October 2021., 2021
Abstract The International Union for Conservation of Nature's Red List of Threatened Species (RLS) is the key global tool for objective, repeatable assessment of species’ extinction risk status, and plays an essential role in tracking biodiversity loss and guiding conservation action.
