The Missing Global South in Climate Change Biology: Towards Equitable Knowledge Inclusion for Effective Global SolutionsNARA Subscribed
Over the last decades, climate change biology has become a central field in global science, yet knowledge production and its inclusion in global strategies remain profoundly unequal. Our bibliometric analysis of over 580,000 records shows that ~80% of author affiliations come from Global North institutions, meaning that research agendas, theoretical frameworks, and priorities are still largely shaped outside the regions with t...
Life history and stock synthesis assessment of Prionotus punctatus (Teleostei, Triglidae) in southern BrazilNARA Subscribed
Age, growth, and maturity of the bluewing searobin Prionotus punctatus were studied to assess its stock status in southern Brazil. Total length compositions, weight, sex, and maturity stage were recorded from commercial landings, and ages were estimated from transverse sections of the sagittal otolith. The oldest observed specimen was a 12‐year‐old female. Females grew to a larger asymptotic length ( L ∞ = 384.4 mm) than males...
Testing a global standard for quantifying species recovery and assessing conservation impactNARA Subscribed
Recognizing the imperative to evaluate species recovery and conservation impact, in 2012 the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) called for development of a “Green List of Species” (now the IUCN Green Status of Species). A draft Green Status framework for assessing species’ progress toward recovery, published in 2018, proposed 2 separate but interlinked components: a standardized method (i.e., measurement aga...
Temperature is often an important variable influencing the vertical position of fish larvae in the water column. The same species may show different vertical distributions in areas with a strong near-surface seasonal thermocline compared to isothermal near-surface regions. In areas with a strong surface thermocline, tuna larvae show a significant preference for the near-surface warmer layers. Little is known regarding larval t...
Mammalian carnivores are considered a key group in maintaining ecological health and can indicate potential ecological integrity in landscapes where they occur. Carnivores also hold high conservation value and their habitat requirements can guide management and conservation plans. The order Carnivora has 84 species from 8 families in the Neotropical region: Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Otariidae; Phocidae; Procyon...
