Changes in the transformative potential of action proposals in Finnish Red Lists from 1986 to 2019
Abstract Red lists provide critical knowledge regarding biodiversity decline, especially in Finland, where broad assessments have been made regularly since the 1980s. They deliver information on the threat status of species and ecosystems, propose actions to guide conservation policy, and have the potential to spur transformative change.

Uncovering correlates of decline and critical refuges for a threatened terrestrial mammal
Abstract Globally, the geographic ranges of numerous species are contracting. Identifying spatiotemporal patterns of threat impact can illuminate why species decline in some parts of their range but persist in others. We developed a correlative approach to identify species’ response thresholds and locate ecological refuge areas associated with ...

Translocation effects on regional and local population viability and connectivity
Abstract Translocations and reintroductions aim to improve the viability of isolated populations and promote connectivity for large carnivores. However, there is no established framework for assessing their success. We used the Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) in western and central Europe to assess the impact of translocations on the viability of six ...

Exploring legal‐ and health‐risk messaging to reduce demand for elephant skin
Abstract Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) are poached for an illegal trade in their skins, which are used in traditional medicine in Africa and Asia. We explored whether messages about the legal and health risks of using elephant skin for medicinal purposes (stomach illness) could reduce such consumption.

Narrative power in the narrative policy framework
Abstract The Narrative Policy Framework lacks clear and empirical explanations of power. Yet, the study of narratives is inherently the study of power in shaping policy outputs and decisions. We develop a conceptual model positing that expressions of power (power to, with, and over) may be discovered in narrative constructs (e.g., narrative structure ...

ABSTRACT This study introduces a dual‐layer protocol for diagnosing how formal institutional designs are implemented in practice in complex governance systems. The protocol builds two linked process maps; one for the formal rules and procedures (rules‐in‐form) and one for the routines actors actually follow in practice (rules‐in‐use).
