Transboundary Policy Perspectives on Migratory Bird Stopover Sites Conservation: A Case Study of Yancheng (China) and Geelong (Australia) 迁徙鸟类停歇地保护的跨境政策视角 —— 以中国盐城与澳大利亚吉朗为例

open access: yesWildlife Letters, EarlyView.
Migratory shorebirds traveling the East Asian–Australasian Flyway face systemic policy fragmentation and habitat disconnection between China (coordination challenges and renewable energy conflicts) and Australia (federal governance fragmentation). This study proposes a transboundary conservation framework to fill this gap.

Drone‐based radiotelemetry and imagery systems provide an advantage over traditional techniques for estimating survival of dependent juveniles

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We used drone‐based radiotelemetry and multispectral imagery to estimate detection and survival probabilities of blue‐winged teal broods in Saskatchewan, Canada. Weekly brood survival probabilities, estimated via Cormack‐Jolly‐Seber models, increased with age and were comparable between drone methods.

Mobile consumers influence the shoreward edge of intertidal seagrass ecosystems

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Ecological paradigms suggest that the environmentally stressful edge of a habitat is determined by physical factors. The work finds that, counter to these paradigms, an environmentally stressful edge can also be impacted by biotic interactions and are more complex than suggested.

‘Reinventing’ the Beach? Lessons from a Local Development Plan in the French Riviera

open access: yesThe 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.

Sustainable Tourism and Projectification: Evidence from South‐Eastern Italy

open access: yesThe Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how public policy can be used to promote local tourism and steer it towards sustainability. It uses the municipality of Lecce—a medium‐sized city in south‐eastern Italy—and the broader Salento region as a critical case study, drawing on descriptive statistics, administrative data on local policy projects promoting culture

A reappraisal of the Middle to Later Stone Age prehistory of Morocco Réévaluer la préhistoire du Maroc, du Middle Stone Age au Later Stone Age

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Over the last 25 years, perceptions of the early prehistory of Northwest Africa have undergone radical changes due to new fieldwork projects and a corresponding growth in scientific interest in the region. Much of this work has been focused in Morocco, known for its extremely rich fossil and archaeological records in caves and rock shelters.

300 Years of Degradation in Wales Estuaries and Coasts

open access: yesNatural Resources Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The world's oceans are in a severe state of degradation, yet our understanding of that degradation is often based on changes observed only in the past 20–50 years. This narrow view leads to marine conservation efforts that aim to preserve already degraded ecosystems, shaped by shifted ecological baselines.
