Marine megafauna species are affected by a wide range of anthropogenic threats. To evaluate the risk of such threats, species’ vulnerability to each threat must first be determined. We build on the existing threats classification scheme and ranking system of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species by assessing the vulnerability of 256 marine megafauna species to 23 at‐sea threat...
Agricultural development of native grasslands may change stream physico‐chemistry in ways that provide both subsidies and stresses to the system. The aims of this study were to determine: (1) which physico‐chemical parameters respond most strongly to agricultural development; (2) how biodiversity, community composition, and food‐web structure responded to these changes; and (3) to determine the balance between negative and pos...
Relationships between land use and stream invertebrate community structure in a South Island, New Zealand, coastal stream catchmentNARA Subscribed
Macroinvertebrate community composition was compared across streams draining catchments dominated by either native bush, agricultural or urban land uses within the Water of Leith stream catchment near Dunedin, New Zealand. Land use was associated with differences in taxon richness and faunal composition of communities present in each stream. The mean abundance levels of Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera were highest i...
