Inter‐country differences in the cultural ecosystem services provided by cockles

People and Nature, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 71-87, February 2022., 2022
Abstract Coastal systems provide many cultural ecosystem services (CES) to humans. Fewer studies have focused solely on CES, while those comparing CES across countries are even rarer. In the case of shellfish, considerable ecosystem services focus has been placed on nutrient remediation, with relatively little on the cultural services provided, despite

Beyond participation: How to achieve the recognition of local communities’ value‐systems in conservation? Some insights from Mexico

People and Nature, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 528-541, June 2021., 2021
Abstract In this article, we explore why conservation schemes that have positive outcomes through the participation of local communities cannot necessarily be deemed as just. We observe that recognition (understood as inclusion and respect) of local communities’ value‐systems, a key factor towards environmental justice, is not often achieved in ...

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

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.
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.

Expert perceptions regarding the effectiveness and feasibility of nature‐based solutions for climate change adaptation in a large Mediterranean Basin

People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 10, Page 2511-2531, October 2025.
Abstract Floods and droughts are becoming increasingly frequent and intense in the Mediterranean region. Nature‐based solutions (NBS) are being put forward as cost‐effective solutions for climate change adaptation to reduce the impacts of floods and droughts and provide multiple other benefits and ecosystem services.

Does Public Expenditure on Education Improve Well‐Being? International Evidence

Kyklos, Volume 78, Issue 3, Page 1225-1241, August 2025.
ABSTRACT The aim of this article is to quantify the relationship between public expenditure on education and individual subjective well‐being, providing empirical evidence of the social return on this investment. We use microdata from the European Social Survey (ESS) merged with macroeconomic variables from official sources. Econometric estimations are

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

Ecosphere, 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

People 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.
