Out in the cold? A review of Early Middle Palaeolithic settlements in northern Central Europe, age data and geological preconditions for site formation and preservation

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The characteristics of settlement of Neanderthals in northern Central Europe during the earlier phases of the Middle Palaeolithic (Marine Isotope Stage 8–6) have been a matter of debate for decades, specifically regarding the population dynamics at such latitudes during the coldest phases. In this paper, we review the known archaeological record of the

Indigenous peoples and local community reports of climate change impacts on biodiversity

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change impacts on biodiversity have been primarily studied through ecological research methods, largely ignoring other knowledge systems. Indigenous and local knowledge systems include rich observations of changes in biodiversity that can inform climate change adaptation planning and environmental stewardship.

Contribution of microcosm experiments to conservation science

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Microcosms, or miniature experimental systems, have been used to develop models and theories in ecology. However, their contribution to conservation science is unclear. We explored the application, design, and impact of microcosms in conservation science from 469 systematically identified articles published from 1986 to 2023.

Environmental factors affect the condition of critically endangered freshwater pearl mussels by disrupting terrestrial–aquatic resource connectivity

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
This regional‐scale field study shows that critically threatened freshwater pearl mussels rely substantially on terrestrial organic matter, indicating strong connectivity between terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. However, human pressures at the catchment scale reduced this resource connectivity.

Bake Sales to Save Nature: Why Wall Street Conservation Survives

open access: yesDevelopment and Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Academics have spent decades analysing the harms and failures of market and finance‐led biodiversity policy. Yet, even though ‘selling nature to save it’ looks less like the promised green capitalism and more like a decades‐long bake sale in that its efforts are small, piecemeal and rely on copious amounts of cheap capital, the approach ...
