The birds and the trees: Avian ecosystem (dis)service perspectives and farmers' willingness to plant native trees in the agricultural landscape of the Galapagos Islands

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 12, Page 3182-3206, December 2025.
Abstract Agricultural landscapes hold great potential for biodiversity conservation; however, this will require finding solutions that work for both people and nature. Increasingly, the conservation community is calling for more cross‐disciplinary research integrating ecological questions with social and behavioural sciences for a more complete and ...

Expert perceptions regarding the effectiveness and feasibility of nature‐based solutions for climate change adaptation in a large Mediterranean Basin

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 10, Page 2511-2531, October 2025.
Abstract Floods and droughts are becoming increasingly frequent and intense in the Mediterranean region. Nature‐based solutions (NBS) are being put forward as cost‐effective solutions for climate change adaptation to reduce the impacts of floods and droughts and provide multiple other benefits and ecosystem services.

Global perspectives, local solutions: Improving human–predator coexistence through collaboration, meaningful experiences and cross‐cultural knowledge

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 9, Page 2068-2084, September 2025.
Abstract Human–predator coexistence is a complex and dynamic relationship influenced by a variety of social–ecological factors. Recognising conflict as an inherent aspect of coexistence, rather than merely a problem to be solved, is crucial. This literature review examines how a range of factors contributes to human coexistence with predators.

The Social Relevance of Water Quality and Cultural Ecosystem Services: An Application to a Saline Wetland in an Arid Environment

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2025.
ABSTRACT The deterioration of wetlands and loss of ecosystem services is a consequence of human‐induced activities and the effects of climate change. In Spain, this situation is intensified in southern arid and semi‐arid regions such as Andalucía, where droughts are particularly intense.

Long‐term interventions by conservation and development projects support successful recovery of tropical peatlands in Amazonia

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 4, Page 871-886, April 2025.
Abstract Rural communities in Amazonia rely on harvesting Mauritia flexuosa fruit, a dominant peatland palm, for their subsistence and income. However, these palms are felled to harvest the fruits, which has led to reduced resource availability due to the pressure exerted by the increasing fruit demand.

Importance of methodological pluralism in deriving counterfactuals for evidence‐based conservation

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 3, June 2024.
Abstract Most protected area impact research that uses counterfactuals draws heavily on quantitative methods, data, and knowledge types, making it valuable in producing generalizations but limited in temporal scope, historical detail, and habitat diversity and coverage of ecosystem services.
