Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Although significant biodiversity has been safeguarded by protected areas (PAs), biodiversity trends continue downward. Within the frameworks of the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 and the new EU Restoration Regulation (2024), conserving critical biodiversity areas is essential.

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Static boundaries of protected areas failed to capture the Canary Islands stonechat's shifting distribution patterns. Abstract Protected areas represent cornerstones of biodiversity conservation on oceanic islands, yet their effectiveness for endemic species remains poorly evaluated. We assessed how various territorial protection categories conserve an

Beyond area: Evaluating Australia's contribution to Aichi Target 11 and implications for 30 × 30
Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Australia has expanded its land‐based protected areas significantly between 2010 and 2022, increasing overall coverage from 12.1% to 22.3% and improving the protection of intact landscapes. However, progress on key biodiversity metrics—such as threatened species coverage and bioregional representation—has been limited, with many species and regions ...

How do ecologists estimate occupancy in practice?
Ecography, EarlyView.Over 20 years ago, ecologists were introduced to the site occupancy model (SOM) for estimating occupancy rates from detection‐nondetection data. In the ensuing decades, the SOM and its hierarchical modeling extensions have become mainstays of quantitative ecology, and estimating occupancy rates has become one of the most common applications of ...

Fisheries Trade and Blue Nutrient Flows in Pacific Island Countries
Fish and Fisheries, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pacific Island Countries (PICs) are located in highly productive fishing regions that supply nutrient‐rich fish to global markets. Marine fisheries are a critical source of protein and essential micronutrients for billions of people worldwide, supporting both local diets and global food security.

Microplastic Impacts on Seafood: A Global Synthesis of Experimental Findings
Fish and Fisheries, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plastic pollution is a growing global concern, with plastic and microplastic particles now widespread in aquatic environments. Microplastics are frequently ingested by marine organisms, including commercially important seafood species. Ingestion can lead to a range of biological effects, influenced by the size, type and quantity of plastic, as
