Using a social‐ecological macrosystems framework to understand how human activities alter ecological synchrony

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Different aspects of ecological systems, biotic or abiotic, often fluctuate in coordinated patterns over space and time. Such high concordance between ecological processes is often referred to as ecological synchrony. Human activities, including and beyond climate change, have the potential to alter ecological synchrony by disrupting or ...

Introduced herbivores and the Allee effect in animal-pollinated plants

open access: yesEcología Austral, 2007
Interspecific interactions can be modulated by the community context in which they occur. In this paper I focus on plant–pollinator interactions and their modulation by introduced herbivores through changes in plant population density. I first develop a

Unpacking the task of synthesis when weaving knowledge systems for biodiversity assessments

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The pivot towards evidence‐based conservation since 2000 has inspired global environmental assessments to gather evidence across multiple knowledge systems, including through co‐production with Indigenous Peoples and local communities. Knowledge co‐production is highlighted as a strategy for transformative change towards a just future that ...

Nature's values, drivers and perceived influence on ecosystem services shape agroecological livestock farming in the Netherlands

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The environmental benefits of agroecological farm management have been demonstrated, but its uptake is still lagging. Understanding how specific practices relate to drivers and ecosystem services (ES), and what values of nature underlie those factors can be useful in understanding what type of practices are preferred by farmers under which ...

Keeping track of biodiversity in agricultural landscapes: New roles for farmers and naturalists in pollinator monitoring

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The decline in biodiversity, particularly in agricultural landscapes, is a pressing global challenge. Monitoring is vital to assess biodiversity trends and conservation effectiveness, yet farmland remains underinvestigated. Engaging farmers and encouraging naturalists to take on new roles could help expand monitoring efforts and strengthen ...

Balancing risk and reward—Perceptions of bats and their ecological role in Reunion island

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Context: Bats provide vital ecosystem services but can also generate disservices or sanitary concerns, particularly where human–bat interactions are frequent. Understanding public perceptions of bats is essential for effective conservation and risk communication.
