Sustainable harvesting of the ecosystem engineer Corallina officinalis for biomaterials
(2019)Macroalgae are of increasing interest for high-value biotechnological applications, but some seaweeds, such as coralline red algae, cannot be grown in cultivation cost-effectively. Wild harvesting of seaweeds, particularly ... -
The avifauna of Ankobohobo Wetland, a neglected Important Bird Area in northwestern Madagascar
(2020)We present here the first detailed inventory of the birds of Ankobohobo Wetland in northwest Madagascar, based on data collected annually in June and July 2010–2018. These wetlands consist of a c. 35 km2 area of mangroves ... -
Fish body sizes change with temperature but not all species shrink with warming
(2020)Ectotherms generally shrink under experimental warming, but whether this pattern extends to wild populations is uncertain. We analysed ten million visual survey records, spanning the Australian continent and multiple decades ... -
Predicting the ecosystem-wide impacts of eradication with limited information using a qualitative modelling approach
(2020)Conservation-motivated eradications may cause unexpected perverse effects, and these undesirable consequences can be difficult to predict due to the paucity of information on species interactions. A probabilistic qualitative ... -
Advancing understanding and prediction in multiple stressor research through a mechanistic basis for null models
(Wiley, 2018)Global environmental change is driven by multiple anthropogenic stressors. Conservation and restoration require understanding the individual and joint action of these stressors to evaluate and prioritize management measures. ...
