Exploring Costa Rica's fungal trends: Insights from digitized specimens

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Fungi are essential to tropical ecosystems but remain largely absent from conservation agendas. By analyzing over 78,000 fungal records from Costa Rica—a globally recognized biodiversity hotspot—this study reveals key patterns in fungal diversity, distribution, and seasonality.

Knee height is often right: evaluating device height effects on camera trapping rate

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Camera trap deployment height can introduce systematic biases in detection trapping rates across species of different body sizes. Combining 172 paired sampling points in five experiments across Europe, North America and Africa, our results show that low cameras significantly increase detections of small‐ and medium‐sized species, whereas high cameras ...

When “Rescue” Means Exile: The Urgency of Science‐Based Protocols for Large Carnivore Interactions and Coexistence in the Neotropics

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Using the recent case of an Andean jaguar translocated hundreds of kilometers to a distinct savanna ecosystem in Colombia, we critique the prevalent “Reactive Removal” model often framed misleadingly as “rescue.” We contrast this approach, which disregards local adaptation, creates ecosystem mismatches, and blocks natural range recovery, with a needed “

Multicriteria evaluation and remote sensing approach to identifying degraded soil areas in northwest Peru

Geocarto International
Soil is a vital nonrenewable resource characterized by rapid degradation and slow regeneration processes. In this study, soil degradation in Jaén and San Ignacio was assessed via a multicriteria evaluation approach combined with remote sensing (RS) data.

Comprehensive framework for assessing and optimizing existing research networks

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Conservation, monitoring, and research networks, or collections of ecological research sites unified under a common mission of data collection or a research mission, are essential infrastructure for understanding large landscapes. However, most networks developed opportunistically over decades rather than through systematic design, creating ...
