Visual Cues for Logical Reasoning about Text Enhance Metacognitive Sensitivity

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract An important part of critical thinking is analyzing the logical structure of inferences made in text, such as checking whether if–then rules appearing in legal regulations or scientific arguments are applied correctly. Metacognitive sensitivity, defined as feeling confident about one's correct answers and uncertain about incorrect ones, is an ...

Perceived costs as drivers of wildlife management preferences in rural Tanzanian communities

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Effectively managing human–wildlife interactions is crucial for fostering coexistence on shared landscapes. Management options are most effective when aligned with the preferences of people directly affected by wildlife, yet little is known about how socioecological factors influence these preferences.

Uncovering correlates of decline and critical refuges for a threatened terrestrial mammal

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Globally, the geographic ranges of numerous species are contracting. Identifying spatiotemporal patterns of threat impact can illuminate why species decline in some parts of their range but persist in others. We developed a correlative approach to identify species’ response thresholds and locate ecological refuge areas associated with ...

Steep declines of colonial wading birds in northeastern North America's largest breeding population

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
This study analyzed 22 years of complete nest census data for colonial wading birds in New York–New Jersey Harbor, the largest breeding population in the northeastern United States. Over this period, the total wading bird population decreased by 27%, a rate exceeding average long‐term declines across North American birds.

Limited elephant impacts on baobabs despite increasing elephant densities in a newly established protected area

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Researchers combined aerial and ground surveys to map baobab distribution and assess elephant herbivory impacts on baobabs across Karingani Game Reserve, Mozambique. Researchers found that aerial surveys were an effective tool for mapping baobabs and that baobabs were more likely to occur closer to permanent water, at lower elevations, and in areas ...
