Listening Deeply to Indigenous People: A Collaborative Perspective and Reflection Between a Mapuche Machi and Ecologists. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Two‐eyed seeing offers a way to see with both Indigenous Traditional Ecological Knowledge and Western ecological sciences. In this collaborative perspective piece between ecologists and a Mapuche spiritual authority (a Machi), we interweave lived experiences and ecological evidence to present the alarming social‐ecological devastation and conflict in ...

Water use partitioning of native and non‐native tree species in riparian ecosystems under contrasting climatic conditions

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 36, Issue 10, Page 2480-2492, October 2022., 2022
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract One of the suggested mechanisms behind the success of non‐native plants in recipient ecosystems is competition avoidance with natives by means of different resource‐use strategies, such as deeper water uptake under dry conditions.

Unveiling biogeographical patterns in the worldwide distributed Ceratitis capitata (medfly) using population genomics and microbiome composition

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 31, Issue 18, Page 4866-4883, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Invasive species are among the most important, growing threats to food security and agricultural systems. The Mediterranean medfly, Ceratitis capitata, is one of the most damaging representatives of a group of rapidly expanding species in the family Tephritidae, due to their wide host range and high invasiveness potential.

Using miniaturized laboratory equipment and DNA barcoding to improve conservation genetics training and identify illegally traded species

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Illegal wildlife trade (IWT) is one of the largest global illegal activities, and it negatively affects biodiversity and sustainable development worldwide. DNA barcoding coupled with high‐throughput sequencing (i.e., metabarcoding) is useful in identifying taxa affected by IWT and has been used routinely for decades.

Evolution of the vaquita/totoaba socio‐ecological system in the Upper Gulf of California, Mexico

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2025.
Abstract The Upper Gulf of California (UGC) hosts a rich marine biodiversity. Complex climatic processes generate high biological productivity enabling the use of resources in a complex socio‐ecological processes (SEPs). Through a literature review, evolution and aggravation of the SEP over 50 years are analyzed.

Toward Sustainable Biocultural Ecotourism: An Integrated Spatial Analysis of Cultural and Biodiversity Richness in Colombia

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 194-214, January 2025.
Abstract Ecotourism plays a vital role in both economic development and depending on the scale, it can also aid environmental conservation. Ecotourism planning often considers culture‐based and nature‐based tourism separately, failing to recognize the synergies between them, with the potential to market locations as biocultural destinations.
