Long-term persistence of conservation-reliant species: Challenges and opportunities
Abstract “Conservation-reliant species”–those fully dependent on continued management
actions–are booming and, with limited conservation budgets, securing funds to sustain their …

[HTML][HTML] Poor availability of context-specific evidence hampers decision-making in conservation
Evidence-based conservation relies on reliable and relevant evidence. Practitioners often
prefer locally relevant studies whose results are more likely to be transferable to the context …

[HTML][HTML] Long-term monitoring reveals the impact of changing climate and habitat on the fitness of cavity-nesting songbirds
J Riggio, A Engilis Jr, H Cook, E De Greef… - Biological …, 2023 - Elsevier
Long-term studies on the impacts of global change on reproduction are rare, even though
reproductive output can respond more quickly than species' abundances or distributions. We …

Increased microclimatic variation in artificial nests does not create ecological traps for a secondary cavity breeder, the European roller
T Schwartz, A Genouville, A Besnard - Ecology and evolution, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Artificial devices are increasingly used in conservation measures to mitigate the
disappearance of natural habitats. However, few studies have demonstrated their benefits …

Relocating nest boxes from poor quality sites can bias inference into population dynamics
CJW McClure - Journal of Raptor Research, 2023 - meridian.allenpress.com
Nest boxes are often used to monitor animals, and it is common practice to relocate nest
boxes from unproductive sites into presumably better habitat. This relocation of nest boxes …

Geographical variation in pace-of-life in a long-distance migratory bird: implications for population management
Life-history theory predicts that animals should develop adaptive trade-offs between survival
and reproduction to maximize their fitness. This results in a continuum of life-history …
