Intact coastal nursery rearing amid climate‐driven phenological shifts in threatened salmon

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Literature linking phenology to climate has proliferated in recent decades and shows that climate change has reorganized seasonal opportunities worldwide. However, this literature often quantifies changes in point measures of timing (e.g., beginnings and peaks) without context about duration (e.g., rearing season length) or performance (e.g ...

A new place for stories in conservation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Michael Soule writes in his foundational article “What is Conservation Biology?” that “in crisis disciplines, one must act before knowing all the facts; crisis disciplines are thus a mixture of science and art, and their pursuit requires intuition as well as information.” Since this article was published three decades ago, conservation biology

A framework for cost‐effective scalable revegetation planning: Experimental evidence of early establishment using native grass species

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Restoration projects often lack clear information on economic costs and ecological benefits, making it difficult for decision makers effectively plan and resource implementation. This study tested three revegetation methods using a combined cost‐accounting and theory of change framework, comparing expected and observed results to reveal which ...

Passive acoustic monitoring for the estimation of density of the singing lemur (Indri indri)

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) was applied to estimate the density of indri (Indri indri) in the Maromizaha tropical forest by adapting a density‐estimation framework originally developed for marine environments. Using a network of autonomous recorders and GLMMs incorporating directional and environmental covariates, we estimated detection ...

Tachinidae (Diptera) as Floral Visitors and Pollinators in Natural and Managed Systems

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We review the roles of bristle flies (Tachinidae) as pollinators in natural and managed systems. We find that most tachinid genera visit flowers and that floral‐adapted mouthparts have evolved repeatedly many times in the family. We review patterns of floral specificity and assess the efficacy of tachinids as pollinators with case studies.
