Stakeholder diversity matters: employing the wisdom of crowds for data-poor fisheries assessments
Scientific ReportsEmbracing local knowledge is vital to conserve and manage biodiversity, yet frameworks to do so are lacking. We need to understand which, and how many knowledge holders are needed to ensure that management recommendations arising from local knowledge are

Comparison of Seagrass Carbon Stock Across Three Distinct Associated Ecosystems, Eastern Coast of Bintan Island, Indonesia [PDF]
BIO Web of ConferencesMarine biota and organisms, including seagrass, capture and utilize more than half of the carbon produced on earth. Seagrass ecosystems are blue carbon ecosystems that play a role in reducing CO2 emissions concerning current climate change.

Seagrasses are most vulnerable to marine heatwaves in tropical zones: local-scale and broad climatic zone variation in thermal tolerances. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Under a changing climate, it is imperative that we understand how species may respond to temperature impacts, which can differ among populations of the same species due to local drivers. Thermal tolerance data, which can be used to assess an organism's upper thermal limits, is valuable to identify species and/or populations' susceptibility to ...

‘Reinventing’ the Beach? Lessons from a Local Development Plan in the French Riviera
The Political Quarterly, EarlyView.Abstract Coastal squeeze is now so tangible both globally and locally that the focus of scientific debate has expanded from the erosion of beaches to the risk of their disappearance. In this context, it is crucial to explore local development plans that aim to preserve the long‐term existence of a beach.

Preliminary comparison of natural versus model-predicted recovery of vessel-generated seagrass injuries in Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary [PDF]
, 2009 Each year, more than 500 motorized vessel groundings cause widespread damage to seagrasses in Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary (FKNMS). Under Section 312 of the National Marine Sanctuaries Act (NMSA), any party responsible for the loss, injury, or ...

Data‐driven discovery of mechanistic ecosystem models with LLMs
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Ecosystem models are essential for ecosystem management, but their development traditionally requires significant time and expertise, creating bottlenecks in addressing urgent environmental challenges. We present LEMMA (LLM Enabled Mechanistic Modelling for ecosystem Assessment), a framework that programmatically generates and iteratively ...
