From steps to home ranges: How habitat disturbance influences the movement drivers of an arboreal primate

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Challenging the narrative about howler monkeys' high resilience to anthropogenic changes, our multiscale analysis reveals the costs of habitat disturbance to their movement ecology. We identify thermal limitations, reduced travel efficiency, and significant spatial saturation.

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.

Risks of concealing environmental degradation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Current practice seeks to conceal the visual impact of land‐use change (i.e., development). Six percent of development impact assessments in Australia and 14% of the World Bank's assessments recommend visual impact mitigation. This mitigation results in, for example, vegetated buffer strips alongside cleared agricultural areas and earthen ...

Identifying hotspots of faunal data deficiency to direct urgent research and monitoring

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Data deficiency is a substantial challenge for extinction risk assessments because incomplete data means we cannot accurately identify priority protected areas for conservation. Here, we use the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) distributions of amphibians, sharks and rays, fish, mammals, birds, and reptiles to identify ...

Verdade e Probabilidade

Cognitio-Estudos: revista eletrônica de filosofia, 2020
Apresentamos a tradução do célebre texto "Verdade e Probabilidade" de Frank P. Ramsey (1903-1930). Embora seja conhecido, principalmente, por ter esboçado uma das primeiras versões do que viria a ser chamado de Dutch Book Argument e por ter desenvolvido uma noção de probabilidade subjetiva, “Verdade e Probabilidade” também aborda a natureza da crença ...

Subspecies taxonomy reflects social and geographic patterns of taxonomic effort in tetrapods

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Subspecies have been used in conservation biology to account for intraspecific patterns in genetic diversity, which is crucial to long‐term population viability. Although over 3200 subspecies are currently assessed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List, their biological relevance remains controversial.

Sex‐Specific Atlantic Salmon Upstream Passage and Fallback at a Natural Cascade After Dam Removal

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the Boquet River (NY, USA) a low‐head dam set above a ~200‐m bedrock cascade was removed in 2015. We used radio‐telemetry to assess landlocked Atlantic salmon passage at the remaining cascade (2020, 2022). Across years, 52% of males (13/25) attempted cascade passage whereas females made no discernable attempts (0/11).

Probabilidad y certeza: análisis crítico sobre la aplicación del teorema de Bayes en los Estados Unidos para la motivación de la prueba de los hechos susceptibles de enjuiciamiento criminal

Revista Ítalo-Española de Derecho Procesal, 2021
La conexión entre los estudios de inteligencia artificial y derecho procesal es uno de los temas de más actualidad de nuestro tiempo. Sin embargo, existe una vieja dicotomía entre «probabilidad» y «certeza» a la hora de determinar el criterio más ...

External structures at the nest‐site predict asymmetric architecture of nests in a mud‐building bird

Ibis, EarlyView.
In the animal kingdom, nests are essential structures and textbook examples of extended phenotypes. However, the relationship between builders, nest traits and the nest‐site remains poorly understood. We indirectly examine whether structures in the nest‐site influence nest‐building behaviour, specifically focusing on their effect on nest architecture ...

A statistical model describing the sunshine in the southern metropolitan area of the Mexico Valley

Geofísica Internacional, 1990
Se propone un modelo estadístico que simule la densidad de probabilidades para la duración de la radiación solar basado en la suposición de que los intervalos de luz solar y de penumbra se distribuyen exponencialmente.
