Protected areas in Borneo may fail to conserve tropical forest biodiversity under climate change
|
Protected areas (PAs) are key for conserving rainforest species, but many PAs are becoming increasingly
isolated within agricultural landscapes, which may have... |

Alleles underlying larval foraging behaviour influence adult dispersal in nature
|
The dispersal and migration of organisms have resulted in the colonisation of nearly every possible habitat and ultimately the extraordinary diversity of life. ... |

Managing the whole landscape: historical, hybrid, and novel ecosystems
|
The reality confronting ecosystem managers today is one of heterogeneous, rapidly transforming landscapes, particularly in the areas more affected by urban and ... |

Impacts of mountaintop mining on terrestrial ecosystem integrity: identifying landscape thresholds for avian species in the central Appalachians, United States
|
Reclaimed mine-dominated landscapes (less forest and more grassland/shrubland cover) elicited more negative (57 %) than positive (39 %) species responses. Negat... |

Australia is ‘free to choose’ economic growth and falling environmental pressures
|
Over two centuries of economic growth have put undeniable pressure on the ecological systems that underpin human well-being. While it is agreed that these press... |
