open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Rock outcrops are geological formations that harbor a highly specialized biota adapted to harsh environmental conditions that differ from their surrounding landscapes. They are globally distributed, especially in old, highly weathered landscapes, and can function as habitat islands containing high levels of endemism and distinct evolutionary ...

A robust method for mapping refugial capacity in montane forests

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We developed a refugial capacity analysis to guide management strategies to protect montane forests that will be relatively buffered from disturbances. Through sensitivity analyses, we found that our approach was robust to uncertainty in thresholds and climate forecasts, consistently identifying refugia across the landscape in similar locations and ...

Toward more inclusive governance and conservation in the urbanizing Amazon

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We propose two paths toward a more inclusive approach to governance and conservation in the urbanizing Amazon: (1) grounding natural resource management programs in local‐level realities and (2) accounting for flows and transformations of place‐based relationships across the rural–urban interface.
