Too Complex to Fail: The Stability of Global Environmental Governance Beyond Hegemony

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The recent US disengagement from global governance has revived concerns—first theorized in the 1970s and 1980s—about the vulnerability of international institutions to hegemonic decline. While these concerns appear valid in many issue areas, the global environmental regime complex presents a notable exception.

Living in the Hedge: Farmland Reptile Diversity Is Driven by Hedgerow Structural Complexity and Landscape Connectivity

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Agricultural intensification is responsible for biodiversity decline, but high‐quality field margins may mitigate these effects. We studied reptile species richness in a farming landscape in western France with a focus on hedgerows structure and density.

Microhaplotype Methods Enable Relationship Inference in a Bottlenecked Mammalian Species

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Northern elephant seals (Mirounga angustirostris) are among the most genetically depauperate mammals in the world. A near‐total population bottleneck in the 19th century, coupled with the breeding system of extreme polygyny, has challenged efforts to estimate individual reproductive success with genetic methods.
