Spatial modelling and estimation of mammals' mortalities by Pantanal 2020 megafires.
Extreme wildfire events, such as the Pantanal 2020 megafires, are expected to become more common. Assessing the impacts of such extreme events on wild...
Rwanda climate services for agriculture: farmers willingness to pay for improved climate services.
This willingness-to-pay (WTP) study aims to understand how Rwandan farmers value the improved characteristics of agricultural climate services introdu...
Collision avoidance: Navigating ships through recovering whale populations
In this blog post, Emily Hague and team discuss their latest research into the importance of careful consideration of collision-mapping approach and data selection when it comes to predicting high-risk vessel collision areas for whales. For conservationists and those that care about nature and our planet, the news can feel incredibly bleak, with daily (deservedly) scary stories of extreme climate change related temperatures, species fighting …
Evaluating songbird vulnerability to offshore wind turbine mortality
Leon Green-Tkacenko and co-authors share insight into their recent study that explores how existing vulnerability indices for seabirds can be applied to migrating songbirds, and potentially other migrating birds, in evaluating vulnerability to offshore wind turbine morality. What is the problem? Climate change is the most pressing threat to biodiversity in the 21st century andaddressing this threat will require substantial changes to how we generate …
Spearfishing-fish behavioural interactions as predator-prey systems to envision better management
Author Valerio Sbragaglia and his colleagues guide us through a recent study which advances the understanding of spearfisher-fish behavioural interaction by integrating ecological indicators (i.e., flight and post flight behaviour of fish) with spearfishers’ likelihood to catch a fish. Through modelling and simulating scenarios, their study sheds light on management implications in exploited fish populations. Exploring spearfishing and fish behaviour If you ask spearfishers, they …
