Trait‐based approaches to study biodiversity responses to changing environmental conditions have become popular because these approaches provide context to how and why certain taxa shift in abundance within an assemblage. Trait‐based approaches also offer the potential to link shifts in assemblage composition to effects on ecosystem functions like rates of primary production, detrital decomposition, and nutrient uptake. Howeve...

Wildlife rescue and rehabilitation is used globally to aid the conservation and welfare of marine species, however, postrelease monitoring is challenging. Here, long‐term, regional postrelease monitoring provides feedback for rehabilitation centers for gray seals ( Halichoerus grypus ).
