A method to estimate actual infrastructure‐induced mortality by integrating hierarchical sources of imperfect detection

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Human infrastructures are among the most impactful wildlife threats. Although estimates of animal mortality by these structures exist over a given period, they typically do not account for several levels of imperfect detection (i.e. difference between recorded and true mortality).

Individual bird identification by modelling temporal structure in bioacoustic embeddings

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Identifying individual animals from vocalizations is an emerging research area in computational bioacoustics. This non‐invasive approach reduces reliance on physical capture and tagging for wildlife monitoring. Recent advances in this area leverage deep learning and bioacoustic foundation models adapted from species‐level classifiers. However,

EMITS: Expectation–maximization abundance estimation for fungal ITS communities from long‐read sequencing

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract As long‐read amplicon sequencing becomes routine for fungal metabarcoding, species‐level abundance estimation from ITS amplicons remains limited by naive best‐hit classification. Assigning each read to its single highest‐scoring reference misattributes reads among closely related species that share similar ITS sequences, and divides the reads ...

From the Individual to the Community: A Qualitative Exploration of Professional Perspectives on Community Well‐Being Dimensions in Gran Canaria

open access: yesChild &Family Social Work, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the growing body of literature on community well‐being, limited studies have explored how social service professionals conceptualise community dimensions in archipelagic or island territories, where territorial inequalities and access barriers pose unique challenges. This study explores how professionals from the Public Social Services

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

Comparative species distribution model framework for marine conservation and its application to loggerhead turtles in the Mediterranean

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modeling species distributions in dynamic pelagic environments remains challenging, particularly for wide‐ranging and highly mobile species when there is limited guidance on model performance. This limitation constrains the effective use of species distribution models (SDMs) in marine conservation, where robust and transferable predictions are

Parathyroidectomy in chronic kidney disease patients in Argentina: pre surgical studies, types of surgery, recurrence and persistence

open access: yesRevista de Nefrología, Diálisis y Trasplante, 2014
Introduction: Parathyroidectomy (PTx) is the selecte treatment for patients with severe secondary hyperparathyroidism, refractory to medical treatment. There is not enough information about this procedure in Argentina, that is the reason why we performed

Evaluating a structured expert elicitation approach for adaptive conservation management based on lessons from five years in practice

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Adaptive management of threatened species relies on having ex ante estimates of species’ responses to different interventions. Structured expert elicitation is often used to generate these estimates, but comparisons of these expert‐predicted outcomes with observed results are rare.

A methodological assessment and reflection on member checking as a form of participant validation for conservation social science

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Qualitative approaches are increasingly applied in conservation social science, yet methodological reflection remains limited. Member checking, a process of returning findings to participants for feedback, is widely recognized outside conservation as a means to enhance rigor and reciprocity, but it is rarely reported in conservation research ...
