Producing a Red List of Ecosystems for the Brazilian Cerrado

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Land clearance is a key driver of biodiversity loss. This is a particular issue in the Brazilian Cerrado, the world's most biodiverse savanna biome and a region experiencing the rapid expansion of agriculture. By using the Red List of Ecosystems as an international standard, we provide the first globally comparable analysis of the state of the Cerrado,

Is Gillnet Prey Subsidizing Ontogenetic Diet Shifts and Early Weaning in Common Coastal Bottlenose Dolphins From the Southwestern Gulf of Mexico?

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Artisanal gillnet fisheries can concentrate prey and provide incidental food subsidies to marine predators, but their effects on early‐life foraging behavior and demography remain poorly resolved. The Alvarado bottlenose dolphin population that lives off the coast of Veracruz, Mexico, is well known for having chronic, frequent, and recurring ...

Growth and Overfishing Indicators Applied to the Protandrous Hermaphrodite Fat Snook (Centropomus parallelus) in the South Atlantic

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The fat snook Centropomus parallelus is a protandrous hermaphrodite teleost of artisanal and recreational value in the South Atlantic, vulnerable to fishing pressure and size‐selective gears. We evaluated exploitation status using size and age based overfishing indicators from recreational fishing championships and artisanal landings along the
