open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 34, Issue 5, Page 1190-1199, October 2020., 2020
Abstract Many conservation conflicts are scientifically complex yet are rooted in value conflicts, which result in an impasse.

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 948-966, July 2025.
Abstract Free‐ranging cats are widely tolerated in cities, and animal welfare organizations increasingly allow for ‘trap, neuter and release’ (TNR) of unowned cats. We show, using the example of a university campus adjacent to a national park in a large metropole, that this has implications for cosmopolitics over biodiversity on the urban edge.
