A framework for capturing indirect impacts in site‐level screening for biodiversity risks
Abstract Site‐based industrial operations such as mining, oil and gas extraction and renewable energy development are associated with many direct and indirect impacts on biodiversity. Consideration of the full range of these impacts when selecting a buffer distance to approximate the Area of Influence (AoI) of a project is critical for effective ...

Abstract Coastal systems provide habitat that sustains valuable shellfisheries but are subject to dissolved oxygen (DO) and/or carbonate chemistry impairment from anthropogenic pressures such as eutrophication and increasingly, climate change. Although extreme events can have disproportional negative ecological impacts, their ephemeral nature and a ...
