Twelve principles for successful governance of community‐based coastal marine restoration

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Global agreements, such as the Global Biodiversity Framework, call for urgent, large‐scale action to halt biodiversity loss through a whole‐of‐society approach. Community‐based restoration can play a crucial role in achieving this goal, yet there remains limited understanding of what makes these projects effective and sustainable.

Effects of restoration practices on biodiversity in temperate and boreal forests

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Several restoration practices are used to mitigate and compensate for the negative effects of large‐scale forestry on biodiversity in temperate and boreal forests. A comprehensive synthesis of the benefits of these practices across taxa is missing. We conducted a systematic review and meta‐analysis on this topic.

Integrating fossil data in ecological niche models to improve predictions of future habitat of Caribbean corals

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecological niche models (ENMs) are used to assess the abiotic preferences of species by linking their occurrences to the environmental conditions in which they live. We developed a fossil‐informed ENM framework that integrates mid‐Holocene and modern occurrences to test niche stability and reconstruct abiotic niche characteristics for four ...

Extreme site fidelity in long‐distance migratory shorebirds in Australia and potential implications for conservation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Site fidelity is the tendency for animals to repeatedly return to the same locations, either within or between years. Site fidelity enables animals to utilize knowledge of previously visited locations, including assessments of seasonal variations in health and mortality risks (e.g., predation), resource availability, and social benefits such ...

A First Indication That Rainforest Vine Proliferation Does Not Enhance Predator–Prey Interactions on the Forest Floor

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Vine proliferation is a widespread consequence of tropical forest disturbance, yet its effects on ground‐level predator–prey interactions remain poorly understood. Using plasticine caterpillars deployed on the rainforest floor in north Queensland, Australia, we show that overall predation rates were unaffected by vine‐to‐tree ratio. Instead, fine‐scale
