Survival Remains High in Griffon Vultures 40 Years After Reintroduction
Animal Conservation, EarlyView.The reintroduction of the Griffon vulture (Gyps fulvus) in French Grands Causses in 1981 is largely regarded as a significant translocation success. 40 years of quality data from intensive monitoring allows us to investigate the survival rates in this long‐lived population on the long term, but also to reflect on the crucial role of adaptive management

Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Mediterranean wetlands are one of Europe's most vital and endangered biodiversity hotspots. This study determined the carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) isotope values of modern plants to construct an isotopic framework by which to contextualize agropastoral management in and around past wetland ecosystems.

Threats to and management of Natura 2000 protected areas relative to agricultural practices
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract The Natura 2000 (N2K) network combines biodiversity protection and socioeconomic targets. Human activities, such as agricultural practices, can affect biodiversity in N2K sites in diverse ways. Limiting activities with negative impacts while enforcing land management that supports biodiversity is crucial for effective conservation.
