No escape from microplastics: Contamination of reef manta ray feeding areas in a remote, protected archipelago

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We found microplastic contamination of the upper water column around the Chagos Archipelago, a remote, protected archipelago in the central Indian Ocean. Key aggregation areas for reef manta rays (Mobula alfredi) were contaminated, putting them at risk of microplastic ingestion.

Temporally‐indexed multi‐species density impact functions: Quantifying timing and impact of invasive predators on seabird breeding success

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Conserving threatened species often requires effective predator suppression strategies, particularly on islands where introduced predators pose significant threats. Density‐impact functions provide a framework to quantify the relationships between predator abundance and impact but are currently limited to a single species with invariant impact.

Estimating non‐US longline fishing impacts on Hawai‘i pelagic false killer whales in a transboundary assessment area

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Downscaling Regional Fishery Management Organization reported longline effort data using fine‐scale Global Fishing Watch effort estimates facilitates estimates of non‐US effort within a transboundary management area. These effort estimates are then used to predict interaction with the Hawai‘i pelagic false killer whale in non‐US fleets, reducing ...

Bake Sales to Save Nature: Why Wall Street Conservation Survives

Development and Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Academics have spent decades analysing the harms and failures of market and finance‐led biodiversity policy. Yet, even though ‘selling nature to save it’ looks less like the promised green capitalism and more like a decades‐long bake sale in that its efforts are small, piecemeal and rely on copious amounts of cheap capital, the approach ...
