Optimizing biodiversity offsetting for habitat succession and colonization dynamics

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity offsetting aims to compensate for ecological losses from development through conservation and restoration. However, its long‐term outcomes under repeated impact–offset cycles remain uncertain. Using a conceptual forest succession model, we evaluated how offset outcomes are affected by interactions among compensation scale ...

Subsistence hunting shapes the spatial variation of jaguar densities in community‐managed forests

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Jaguars and people can coexist in community‐managed forests, but distance matters. In Guatemala's Maya Biosphere Reserve, jaguar numbers increased markedly in areas harder to reach on foot, yet jaguars were still found near communities, showing that responsibly managed forests can support jaguar populations while allowing people to maintain traditional

Letting People in: Redefining Collaboration in Wildland–Urban Interface Governance

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, Volume 36, Issue 4, Page 910-926, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Intensifying wildfire regimes and expanding human settlements into wilderness areas have heightened concerns about the wildland–urban interface (WUI) due to the associated increase in fire risk. However, the WUI presents broader social‐ecological challenges that go beyond wildfire risk and remain understudied.

Drivers of bat researchers’ intent to adopt field hygiene practices

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Infectious disease is a growing threat to wildlife, with zoonotic transmission most likely at the human–wildlife interface. One underappreciated activity at this interface is fieldwork with wild animals, but associated risks can be mitigated through field hygiene (FH) practices, such as using personal protective equipment and other appropriate
