Psychometric framework for coexistence with large carnivores
Abstract Human–carnivore coexistence is essential for biodiversity conservation, yet measuring the attitudes and behaviors that support it remains methodologically challenging. We developed psychometric scales to assess willingness to coexist with carnivores and the underlying beliefs of this coexistence through an iterative expert elicitation process ...

Abstract Permanent protected areas (PPAs) may be insufficient to protect migratory species, as they are fixed in space and unfeasible in many locations. Dynamic conservation strategies may be necessary to help conserve migratory species. We tested the cost‐effectiveness of temporarily conserved areas (TCAs), a dynamic conservation strategy, to provide ...

Phenological Flexibility in Nesting Grassland Birds Over a Half Century Informs Timing of Management
Using > 170,000 nest records from 44 North American grassland bird species, we quantified how temperature, precipitation, and vegetation phenology shape early, peak, and late nesting across broad spatial gradients. Spatial predictions identify geographic variation in breeding phenology that can inform the timing of management actions under changing ...

Transhumance as a Prism. Toward a Planetary Rural Geography of Mountain Space
ABSTRACT Transhumance is a marginal—yet crucial—practice within mountain and rural geographies at a global scale. The term refers to a wide range of extensive grazing systems characterized by the seasonal movement of herds and flocks between different altitudes, within diverse governance systems.
