Indigenous peoples and local community reports of climate change impacts on biodiversity

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change impacts on biodiversity have been primarily studied through ecological research methods, largely ignoring other knowledge systems. Indigenous and local knowledge systems include rich observations of changes in biodiversity that can inform climate change adaptation planning and environmental stewardship.

Cool‐season environmental water delivery increases extinction risk for chytrid‐infected amphibians

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We developed a stochastic population model to test the impact of the timing of environmental water delivery on the extinction risk of L. raniformis impacted by amphibian chytrid fungus. Our simulations suggested populations are less likely to go extinct when environmental water is delivered in spring compared to late winter. This outcome indicates that,

Effects of a temperate heatwave on diel rhythms of insect activity: A comparison across habitats

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
Counts of insects caught in pan traps in Norfolk, UK, exhibited a unimodal relationship with air temperature – a pattern also observed specifically for the orders Diptera and Hymenoptera. A temperate heatwave event reduced insect counts in the open meadow habitat by an estimated 81.9%, with smaller, non‐significant decreases observed in tree‐covered ...
