The collective application of shorebird tracking data to conservation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership

Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.

Estimating the total mortality of seabirds following a marine heat wave

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Marine heat waves detrimentally affect a range of marine species, including seabirds, and are increasing in frequency and severity. When thousands of dead seabirds wash up on beaches, the public becomes concerned. However, the number of dead birds recorded on beaches is only a fraction of the total mortality; most birds perish at sea.

Diversidad filogenética de especies de Microcoleus de costras biológicas de suelo

Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2010
Microcoleus vaginatus fue proclamada como especie cosmopolita. Este supuesto no lo confirman los estudios morfológicos previos que se realizaron en poblaciones naturales de costras de suelo en una región con historia geológica particular, llamada sierra ...

Monitoring wildlife health for diseases with visible signs by integrating camera traps with marked individuals

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Monitoring wildlife health is essential for conservation and management, wildlife and livestock welfare, and public health in a One Health framework. Yet, wildlife health monitoring often requires long‐term fieldwork and intensive sampling, which can be costly or logistically challenging, especially for remote, rare, or elusive populations. To

Comparative review of entanglement risk assessments for cetacean conservation and management

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cetacean entanglement in fishing gear remains a major global threat that exposes persistent gaps in how fisheries management frameworks manage risk to nontarget species. Ecological risk assessment (ERA) offers a structured way to link exposure and consequences to an explicit statement of risk, but entanglement risk assessments vary widely in ...

Hongos endofíticos clavicipitales en poblaciones naturales de Lolium perenne

, 2022
Los hongos endofíticos de los géneros Epichloe y Neotyphodium (Fam. Clavicipitaceae), infectan a un gran número de gramíneas. En general, en las interacciones gramínea-endofito, una especie de planta hospedadora es infectada por una especie de hongo endofítico. Sin embargo, en Lolium perenne varios tipos de endofitos han sido identificados.

Habitat and spatial trends of U.K. wintering waterbird populations over 50 years

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The United Kingdom is an important wintering ground for millions of waterbirds. Most U.K. wintering waterbird populations increased between 1970 and the mid‐1990s, but declined thereafter. We examined U.K. population indices in 46 wintering waterbird species in two 25‐year periods, 1970–1994 and 1995–2019, to identify which waterbird groups ...

Assisted migration of forest populations for adapting trees to climate change

Revista Chapingo: Serie Ciencias Forestales y del Ambiente, 2016
En este trabajo se presenta evidencia de que el cambio climático es un proceso que está en curso y que las poblaciones de árboles forestales son genéticamente diferenciadas en caracteres cuantitativos debido a la adaptación en hábitats específicos.
