Structured machine learning modeling to support conservation of deep‐sea benthic biodiversity

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity monitoring programs need to deliver accurate, timely, and actionable predictions. To establish a predictive monitoring program for deep‐sea benthos of the Santos Basin, Brazil, we developed a two‐stage structured model that allowed comparison of biodiversity predictions obtained from environmental simulations (2M‐Sim).

Emerging applications of large language models in ecology and conservation science

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Large language models (LLMs) mark a major development in artificial intelligence, with potentially transformative implications for ecology and conservation science. Built on advanced deep‐learning architectures, these models can support a wide range of tasks. We reviewed emerging applications of LLMs, drawing on the wider scientific literature

Simulating drying and human impacts on river networks to evaluate biological quality indices performance through the lens of metacommunity theory

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
This work constitutes a first step towards developing simulation‐based assessments that incorporate catchment drying patterns to support biomonitoring of drying river networks. Our approach can inform stakeholders when current methods are likely to fail and contribute to decision‐making on whether adapting current methods is possible or developing new ...

Do Institutions Make Street‐Level Bureaucrats Prosocial? Agent‐Based Evidence Shows That New Public Management Does Not

open access: yesEuropean Policy Analysis, Volume 12, Issue 2, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT Does street‐level bureaucrats' (SLBs) willingness to sacrifice their own self‐interests to meet the needs of their clients vary depending on their contexts? To date, it has been very challenging to empirically examine how SLBs who have different orientations toward social values might act in different institutional and administrative contexts.

Remove saplings early: Cost‐effective strategies to contain tree invasions and prevent their impacts

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 661-676, March 2025.
Our highest‐ranking strategies represent management actions to start implementing in the field as part of an adaptive management plan that iteratively evaluates the validity of our simulation model and updates the management recommendations. Our study can be applied to guide management of invasive pines and replicated with any invasive woody species ...

Simulación basada en agentes: Un estudio de caso

open access: yesSerie Científica de la Universidad de las Ciencias Informáticas, 2019
Desde su surgimiento hace ya unos años, la simulación de procesos y situaciones ha consistido un pilar fundamental en la toma de decisiones. Recientemente y con la ayuda de la orientación a agentes, se ha posibilitado la creación de modelos de simulación

Simulating the efficacy of wolf–dog hybridization management with individual‐based modeling

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 1, February 2025.
In the photo, an introgressed adult wolf–dog in the Northern Apennines, Italy, not far from the city of Bologna. Part of a research program, this male has been sterilized and released back in its own pack with a Global Positioning Collar. Abstract Introgressive hybridization between wolves and dogs is a conservation concern due to its potentially ...

Game target‐group: Implementing inhomogeneous Poisson point process to estimate animal abundance from harvest data

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, Page 170-182, January 2025.
Abstract Harvest data have the potential to be used as an abundance index due to its widespread availability and long‐term collection across large geographical areas. However, challenges such as the lack of hunting effort information, varying data resolutions and reporting biases hinder its direct use as an abundance proxy.
