Prioritizing forest management actions to benefit marine habitats in data-poor regions. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol, 2022
Abstract Land‐use change is considered one of the greatest human threats to marine ecosystems globally. Given limited resources for conservation, we adapted and scaled up a spatially explicit, linked land–sea decision support tool using open access global geospatial data sets and software to inform the prioritization of future forest management ...

Review of ecological valuation and equivalency analysis methods for assessing temperate nearshore submerged aquatic vegetation. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol
Abstract Nearshore seagrass, kelp, and other macroalgae beds (submerged aquatic vegetation [SAV]) are productive and important ecosystems. Mitigating anthropogenic impacts on these habitats requires tools to quantify their ecological value and the debits and credits of impact and mitigation.

Effects of seagrass restoration on coastal fish abundance and diversity

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 6, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Restoration is accelerating to reverse global declines of key habitats and recover lost ecosystem functions, particularly in coastal ecosystems. However, there is high uncertainty about the long‐term capacity of restored ecosystems to provide habitat and increase biodiversity and the degree to which these ecosystem services are mediated by ...

Drivers of resource allocation for breeding under variable environments in a bet hedger

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2023., 2023
In this study, we analysed data on the breeding investment of Audouin's gulls over a 30‐year period to understand how these long‐lived bet‐hedging birds allocate energy for breeding. We found that food availability and age influenced clutch size and the total volume of eggs in a clutch, with gulls laying more and larger eggs in years with favourable ...

Cavity‐nesting birds are limited by nesting habitat in Neotropical agricultural landscapes

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 55, Issue 5, Page 1045-1057, September 2023., 2023
Although cavity‐nesting bird diversity is highest in the tropics, little is known about how tropical birds use cavities, how agriculture affects their reproductive biology, and how effective nest boxes could be as a conservation strategy in tropical agriculture.

Caviomorphs (Rodentia, Hystricognathi) from Pampa Castillo, Chile: new octodontoid records and biochronological implications

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 9, Issue 1, January/February 2023., 2023
Abstract Caviomorph rodents have been diverse and abundant components of South American mammal communities since the late Eocene. We describe herein the octodontoids of Pampa Castillo, a Lower Miocene site in southern Chile (Aysén Region). Six genera and seven species of octodontoids are present, two of which are new: Dudumus berggreni sp. nov.

Prenatal caffeine exposure: association with neurodevelopmental outcomes in 9‐ to 11‐year‐old children

open access: yesJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, Volume 63, Issue 5, Page 563-578, May 2022., 2022
Background Despite the widespread use of caffeine including consumption during pregnancy, the effect of prenatal caffeine exposure on child brain development and behavior is unclear. Methods To address this, we used data from the Adolescent Brain and Cognitive Development Study (n = 11,875 children aged 9–11 years from 22 sites across the United States)

A meta‐analysis of responses of C3 plants to atmospheric CO2: dose–response curves for 85 traits ranging from the molecular to the whole‐plant level

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 233, Issue 4, Page 1560-1596, February 2022., 2022
Summary Generalised dose–response curves are essential to understand how plants acclimate to atmospheric CO2. We carried out a meta‐analysis of 630 experiments in which C3 plants were experimentally grown at different [CO2] under relatively benign conditions, and derived dose–response curves for 85 phenotypic traits.

Spatial cost–benefit analysis of blue restoration and factors driving net benefits globally

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 6, Page 1850-1860, December 2021., 2021
Abstract Marine coastal ecosystems, commonly referred to as blue ecosystems, provide valuable services to society but are under increasing threat worldwide due to a variety of drivers, including eutrophication, development, land‐use change, land reclamation, and climate change.

COVID‐19 in hospitalized HIV‐positive and HIV‐negative patients: A matched study

open access: yesHIV Medicine, Volume 22, Issue 9, Page 867-876, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Objectives We compared the characteristics and clinical outcomes of hospitalized individuals with COVID‐19 with [people with HIV (PWH)] and without (non‐PWH) HIV co‐infection in Spain during the first wave of the pandemic. Methods This was a retrospective matched cohort study.
