Exploring more‐than‐human ethics and the digital dimensions of nature recovery through an interactive fiction game

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract This perspective piece considers how a more‐than‐human approach to ethics can foster nuanced, critical understandings of the digital dimensions of nature recovery. A more‐than‐human approach expands on who or what is included as ethical actors while focusing on the interconnectedness of human and nonhuman experiences.

Tackling saiga horn consumption in Singapore: From consumer insights to intervention co‐design

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The illegal and unsustainable wildlife trade is a key driver of biodiversity loss, and reducing consumer demand is recognised as a critical step in addressing it. However, studies understanding the drivers of wildlife product consumption and identifying effective strategies to reduce it remain very limited.

Poaching and Firm‐Sponsored Training [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Industrial Relations, 2018
AbstractA series of seminal papers argues that poaching hampers company‐sponsored general training. Empirically, however, the existence and extent of poaching remain open questions. We provide a novel empirical strategy to identify poaching. We find that only few apprenticeship training firms in Germany are ‘poaching victims’ or ‘poaching raiders ...

This article studies electoral competition in a model of redistributive politics with deterministic voting and heterogeneous voter loyalties to political parties. We construct a natural measure of `party strength' based on the sizes and intensities of a party's loyal voter segments and demonstrate how party behavior varies with the two parties ...

Citizen Science for Individual Identification of Pine Martens Martes martes From Camera Trap Footage

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Camera traps generate large volumes of wildlife footage, but identifying animals to the individual level remains challenging and time‐consuming. Using European pine martens in the Forest of Dean as a case study, we assessed whether citizen scientists could identify individuals from camera trap photos and videos.

Paradigms and Principles for Integrating Nature Technology Data: Challenges, Opportunities, and Next Steps in Real‐World Biodiversity Monitoring

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We propose a set of paradigms (survey design, tip and cue, validation, consilience, interpolation and extrapolation, and data fusion) and prioritize a set of principles (metadata standards, use rights and licensing, scientific rigor, and utility) as the foundations of an actionable framework for nature technology data integration. We then analyze seven
