Insights on the roles of women in effective and procedurally just environmental governance from coastal fisheries management in Fiji. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Women are widely viewed as the backbone of their villages, yet their participation in fisheries management is limited by restrictive gender roles. Men and women alike agree that women have valuable knowledge to contribute, and that men can serve as powerful allies.

Regional (south‐eastern Pacific Ocean) population genetics and global phylogeography of two endangered highly migratory pelagic sharks, the blue shark Prionace glauca and shortfin mako Isurus oxyrinchus

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 33, Issue 10, Page 1098-1115, October 2023., 2023
Abstract The blue shark Prionace glauca and the shortfin mako Isurus oxyrinchus are two large and highly migratory sharks inhabiting temperate and tropical waters worldwide that are heavily targeted by artisanal and industrial fisheries. The International Union for Nature Conservation classifies the blue shark and shortfin mako as ‘Near Threatened’ and

Integrating telemetry and point observations to inform management and conservation of migratory marine species

Ecosphere, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Species distribution models have been widely used in both terrestrial and marine systems, and applications have included invasive species management, evaluating potential effects of climate change, and conservation. Generally, only a single type of data can be accommodated within the model structures used, which may lead to higher uncertainty ...

Recent trends in abundance and fishing pressure of agency‐assessed small pelagic fish stocks

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 23, Issue 6, Page 1313-1331, November 2022., 2022
Abstract Small pelagic fishes are used for human consumption, fishmeal and fish oil. They constitute 25% of global fish catch and have been of considerable conservation concern because of their intermediate position in aquatic food webs, often being a dominant dietary component of marine predators. This paper provides an overview of trends in abundance

Climate change adaptation in Central America: A review of the national policy efforts

Latin American Policy, Volume 13, Issue 2, Page 276-327, November 2022., 2022
Abstract The latest comparative studies of climate policies reinforce the fundamental importance of employing adaptation planning alongside national development strategies. While these studies are necessary to document and share the knowledge of the practices and experiences undertaken at the national level, documents are still scarce on regions of ...

‘Heroes to anonymous pensioners’: Francisco Franco's ‘mutilated gentlemen’ and the erosion of veteran privilege in Spain's transition to democracy

History, Volume 107, Issue 377, Page 765-788, September 2022., 2022
Abstract This article explores how during Spain's transition to democracy in the 1970s and 1980s, Francoist disabled veterans of the Spanish Civil War navigated the disappearance of formerly hegemonic historical narratives which had hitherto defined their relationship with the state.

Synthesis of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis infection in South America: amphibian species under risk and areas to focus research and disease mitigation

Ecography, Volume 2022, Issue 7, July 2022., 2022
Amphibian chytridiomycosis, caused by Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), has been recognized as the infectious disease causing the most catastrophic loss of biodiversity known to science, with South America being the most impacted region. We tested whether Bd prevalence is distributed among host taxonomy, ecoregion, conservation status and habitat ...

Timing and magnitude of climate‐driven range shifts in transboundary fish stocks challenge their management

Global Change Biology, Volume 28, Issue 7, Page 2312-2326, April 2022., 2022
We use model projections to explore the timing and intensity in the distribution of marine fish stocks that are shared across the world's Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZ). Our findings suggest that many shared stocks’ distribution and catch are expected to change in most EEZs by 2030.

Threats of illegal, unregulated, and unreported fishing to biodiversity and food security in the Republic of the Congo

Conservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 5, Page 1463-1472, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing poses a major threat to effective management of marine resources, affecting biodiversity and communities dependent on these coastal resources. Spatiotemporal patterns of industrial fisheries in developing countries are often poorly understood, and global efforts to describe spatial patterns of
