The ecology of attraction: Fruit traits and frugivore diversity in neotropical Piper

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Fruit traits can benefit plant reproduction by enhancing seed dispersal by mutualistic frugivores (e.g. seed dispersal syndromes), but identifying the role of specific fruit traits in mediating frugivory is challenging because these traits can serve multiple functions ...

Record phenological responses to climate change in three sympatric penguin species

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This paper is impressive because we managed to monitor extensively a really difficult place to reach and operate in. We deployed 77 cameras across Antarctica and the Sub Antarctic islands to monitor three different species of penguins. We found that they are the fastest advancing vertebrates with respect to their timing of breeding.

Lessons learned from screening potential other effective area‐based conservation measures

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Other effective area‐based conservation measures (OECMs) are sites that deliver effective biodiversity outcomes irrespective of their management objectives. These areas are widely expected to play an important role in efforts to protect 30% of Earth by 2030.

Diagnosing scaling bottlenecks in 10 community conservation initiatives in southern and eastern Africa

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Scaling area‐based conservation, including initiatives led or comanaged by Indigenous Peoples and local communities, is a flagship goal of the Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. Conservationists often aspire to scale initiatives, but this is rarely achieved in practice. Identifying and addressing factors that limit initiative adoption (i.e.

Addressing environmental misperceptions for nature recovery

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract A poorly understood and systemic challenge to global conservation agreements is shifting baseline syndrome (SBS), wherein people misperceive the extent to which nature has changed. This can diminish societal expectations for nature recovery. We broadened the conceptual framing of SBS beyond the more common elements of nature loss to include ...

Threats to and management of Natura 2000 protected areas relative to agricultural practices

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Natura 2000 (N2K) network combines biodiversity protection and socioeconomic targets. Human activities, such as agricultural practices, can affect biodiversity in N2K sites in diverse ways. Limiting activities with negative impacts while enforcing land management that supports biodiversity is crucial for effective conservation.

A link between increased temperature and avian body condition in a logged tropical forest

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The combined effects of anthropogenic disturbances, such as logging and climate change, remain poorly understood; yet, they are the main threats to tropical biodiversity. Most tropical African countries lack long‐term climate data, so climate impacts on biodiversity cannot be assessed.

Differences in characteristics between naturalized threatened plants and other threatened plants

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Many non‐native plant species introduced by humans have become naturalized. At the same time many species are threatened in their native range. However, the number of plant species threatened in their native range that are naturalized elsewhere remains unknown.
