Climate-smart prioritisation of tropical Key Biodiversity Areas for protection in response to widespread temperature novelty.

B. T. Trew, A. C. Lees, D. P. Edwards, R. Early, I. Maclean

The paper quantifies temperature regime novelty in tropical Key Biodiversity Areas and identifies refugia for conservation prioritization under climate change.

Constraints on avian seed dispersal reduce potential for resilience in degraded tropical forests

J. H. Hatfield, C. Banks-Leite, J. Barlow, A. C. Lees, J. Tobias

The paper quantifies defaunation of seed-dispersing birds in degraded tropical forests and finds reduced functional trait diversity and limited seed dispersal potential in degraded areas.

Listening to tropical forest soils

O. C. Metcalf, F. Baccaro, J. Barlow, E. Berenguer, T. Bradfer-Lawrence, L. Chessini Rossi, E. Marinho do Vale, A. C. Lees

This study introduces the first use of passive acoustic monitoring in tropical forest soils, revealing differences between burnt and unburnt sites and suggesting a diel cycle in soil soundscapes.

Optimising tropical forest bird surveys using passive acoustic monitoring and repeated short-duration point counts

O. C. Metcalf, J. Barlow, S. Marsden, N. G. d. Moura, E. Berenguer, A. C. Lees

This study compares short-duration and standard-duration bird surveys in tropical forests, finding short-duration surveys more effective for detecting species richness and reducing false negatives.

How many bird and mammal extinctions has recent conservation action prevented?

F. C. Bolam, L. Mair, M. Angelico, T. M. Brooks, M. Burgman, C. Hermes, M. Hoffmann, R. W. Martin, P. J. K. McGowan, A. S. L. Rodrigues, C. Rondinini, H. Wheatley, Y. Bedolla-Guzman, J. Calzada, M. F. Child, , Squir

The paper estimates that conservation actions prevented 21-32 bird and 7-16 mammal extinctions between 1993-2020, and 9-18 bird and 2-7 mammal extinctions between 2010-2020.
