Optimizing biodiversity offsetting for habitat succession and colonization dynamics

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity offsetting aims to compensate for ecological losses from development through conservation and restoration. However, its long‐term outcomes under repeated impact–offset cycles remain uncertain. Using a conceptual forest succession model, we evaluated how offset outcomes are affected by interactions among compensation scale ...

Resenha do livro: 'Oficiais mecânicos da cidade de Salvador'

open access: yesRevista de História, 1977
(primeiro parágrafo do texto) A História do Brasil, notadamente a do Período Colonial, ainda é uma História de elites, de grupos dominantes. A "arraia-miúda", as populações urbanas, os homens-livres não figuram em seu elenco de heróis.

Using customs data to understand overlooked trade in non‐CITES birds between Africa and Asia

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract The international trade in live birds poses risks to animals, people, and biodiversity. To effectively mitigate these risks, decision‐makers require information on the volume, dynamics, and direction of trade. Despite Africa once being the largest exporter of birds by region, very little data exist on recent trade in live birds not listed on ...

Uncovering correlates of decline and critical refuges for a threatened terrestrial mammal

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Globally, the geographic ranges of numerous species are contracting. Identifying spatiotemporal patterns of threat impact can illuminate why species decline in some parts of their range but persist in others. We developed a correlative approach to identify species’ response thresholds and locate ecological refuge areas associated with ...

Reef fish assemblages impacted by sponges overgrowing corals

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Numerous stressors are driving long‐term declines in coral cover on coral reefs, significantly impacting reef fish biodiversity and community structure. The benthic space made available by declining coral cover is often occupied by increases in other organisms, including macroalgae, encrusting ascidians, and sponges.

When conservation meets contagion: Mapping yellow fever risk to guide vaccination in an endangered primate

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.
Spatial projections revealed high‐risk areas for YF transmission, highlighting priority zones for targeted vaccination efforts in GLTs. By integrating disease ecology into conservation planning, this study offers a scalable framework for spatially informed interventions aimed at mitigating disease‐driven declines in threatened species.

Role of freshwater availability and terrestrial land‐cover change in the distribution of a declining, terrestrial, insectivorous bird

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Insectivorous, Afro‐Palearctic migrant birds provide cross‐border ecosystem services, but many are declining rapidly. The complex life cycle of migrant birds makes their conservation difficult, but understanding where they spend time during the breeding season can help indicate where those actions will be most effective.
