Biologging and Global Fishing Watch data reveal extensive spatial and vertical overlap between loggerhead turtles from the Cabo Verde population and fisheries across the Northeast Atlantic, highlighting areas of high predicted bycatch risk and gaps in current protections. ABSTRACT Bycatch is the accidental capture of non‐target animals in fishing gear,

The Presence and Behaviour of Birds at Two Prescribed Fires in Sweden
Shifting fire regimes pose immediate threats to animal conservation. Swedish birds appear to mostly ignore prescribed fire, and some species even continue to sing. Behavioural plasticity towards fire is poorly understood, but may prove to be an essential tool in animal conservation.

The “Magic” of Conflict: How Participatory Governance Can Enable Transformative Climate Adaptation
ABSTRACT In many cases, addressing climate risks requires transformative climate adaptation (TCA) that goes beyond small adjustments to existing systems. While scholars increasingly argue that participatory governance is key and should embrace conflict rather than push for consensus to enable TCA, this assumption remains underexplored.

Back to the Mission. Revisiting Slack in Nonprofits and Introducing Tappable Slack
ABSTRACT This article contributes to and develops the previous literature on excess resources (“slack”) in nonprofit organizations through a conceptual analysis of the implications that the organizational distinctiveness of nonprofits carries for our understanding of slack in these organizations.

Marine litter can shift sea turtle nests toward the shoreline
Marine litter is an emerging threat to sea turtle rookeries, yet its effects on nesting behaviour remain poorly understood. In this study, we investigated how macro‐litter accumulation on beaches influences the spatial distribution of loggerhead turtle Caretta caretta nests on Boa Vista Island, Cabo Verde.

Abstract Nature‐based tourism is a rapidly growing subsector of the international tourism industry. However, capturing broad‐scale patterns of nature visits during touristic trips or visitors' appreciation of nature may be difficult using traditional data sources and methods. In this study, we harness geotagged social media data to understand the scale

The report surveys the habitats (types of environment or vegetation) found in Norway, which are included in Natura 2000, a list of habitats considered endangered in Europe. Norway would be obliged to introduce conservation measures for these habitats if she was an EU member.

Targeted conservation measures are contingent on robust knowledge of spatio‐temporal animal distribution in areas of interest. We explore unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) transect monitoring as a novel method for standardized digital aerial surveys of marine megafauna by investigating the fine‐resolution spatio‐temporal distribution of harbour porpoises ...

An Integrated Assessment of European Soil Health and Restoration Potential
ABSTRACT Soils host a significant proportion of biodiversity on Earth providing ecosystem functions vital to human well‐being, making it imperative to include them and their ecological features when addressing sustainability goals. We performed a comprehensive assessment of soil health across Europe by explicitly integrating biotic and abiotic ...

The effectiveness of biodiversity offsetting for wild pollinator conservation
We show that even small differences in the composition of floral resources can result in significantly higher wild pollinator abundances and species richness in offset grasslands. Since our reference grasslands represent the target habitat, our findings suggest that biodiversity offsetting of semi‐natural grassland shows promise for achieving No Net ...
