Ancient people and living nature: A global perspective on archaeological areas and biodiversity

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Archaeological sites are not only of cultural and historical significance but also contribute to biodiversity conservation. Often marked by limited human disturbance and distinct ecological conditions, these areas serve as important refuges for various plant and animal species, playing a vital role in global conservation efforts.

Capacity building needed to reap the benefits of access to biodiversity collections

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Global conservation efforts increasingly depend on digitised natural history collections, yet the benefits of this digital data are not equally shared. We analysed biodiversity specimens and citation data from Montserrat and the Cayman Islands to assess who collected these specimens, how they are used, and by whom.
