Linking movement and dive data to prey distribution models: new insights in foraging behaviour and potential pitfalls of movement analyses

This study links movement and dive data of ringed seals to prey distribution models, finding that movement is not related to foraging effort and seals forage more in areas with lower prey diversity and biomass.

The costs of global protected-area expansion (Target 3 of the post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework) may fall more heavily on lower-income countries

The paper estimates the cost distribution of expanding protected areas under the Global Biodiversity Framework, finding lower-income countries may bear larger financial burdens despite benefiting less.

Low cost conservation: Fishing gear threats to marine species

The paper analyzes gear-specific threats to marine species and identifies conservation-fisheries trade-offs, finding that gillnet and longline fisheries pose high risks with low profits.
