Legacy effects of European colonialism on hotspots of biocultural diversity threat
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Patterns of biological diversity have been shaped by cultural practices in the past, while in turn, cultures and languages have evolved in close interaction with local species and ecosystems.

Integrating human acceptance into habitat suitability models for snow leopards in northern Bhutan
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Habitat suitability models are commonly used to assess the potential distribution of large carnivores by identifying ecologically favourable areas. However, these models often overlook human dimensions, such as conflict and acceptance, which can lead to overestimation of species ranges and a mismatch between predicted and actual distributions.
