Habitat dynamics of flagship species for conservation prioritization in southern Europe. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Biodiversity loss is accelerating due to human actions, and decision‐making for conservation needs to be streamlined. Ex situ biodiversity modeling and monitoring based on satellite time‐series data could be an affordable and cost‐efficient tool for improving the prioritization of conservation areas.

Incorporating multidimensional behavior into a risk management tool for a critically endangered and migratory species

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 5, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Conservation of migratory species exhibiting wide‐ranging and multidimensional behaviors is challenged by management efforts that only utilize horizontal movements or produce static spatial–temporal products. For the deep‐diving, critically endangered eastern Pacific leatherback turtle, tools that predict where turtles have high risks of ...

Geographic range size and extinction risk assessment in nomadic species

Conservation Biology, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 865-876, June 2015., 2015
Abstract Geographic range size is often conceptualized as a fixed attribute of a species and treated as such for the purposes of quantification of extinction risk; species occupying smaller geographic ranges are assumed to have a higher risk of extinction, all else being equal.
