Safe and just operating spaces for regional social-ecological systems

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a framework for defining the safe and just operating space for humanity that integrates social wellbeing into the original planetary boundaries concept for application at regional scales, arguing that such a framework can increase the policy impact of the boundaries concept as most governance takes place at the regional rather than planetary scale; contribute to the understanding and dissemination of complexity thinking throughout governance and policy-making; act as a powerful metaphor and communication tool for regional equity and sustainability.

AudioMoth: Evaluation of a smart open acoustic device for monitoring biodiversity and the environment

TL;DR: The development and proof-of-concept of a low-cost, small-sized and low-energy acoustic detector, AudioMoth, which has potential for varied applications in large-scale, long-term acoustic surveys.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differential Use of Trails by Forest Mammals and the Implications for Camera-Trap Studies: A Case Study from Belize

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed detection probabilities of a range of Neotropical mammals on trails in dense secondary forests, using camera-trap and track data, and concluded that trail-based indices, such as photographic captures or tracks along trails, are not appropriate for comparison between relatively similar species like jaguars and pumas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Balanced dispersal between spatially varying local populations: an alternative to the source-sink model.

TL;DR: Analysis of long‐term monitoring data on breeding collared flycatchers has revealed equal numbers of immigrations and emigrations between neighboring populations of different sizes, providing the first empirical evidence for a system of discrete habitat patches with component populations that exist as simultaneous sources and sinks to their neighbors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Den site can determine shape and size of badger territories: implications for group-living

C. Patrick Doncaster, +1 more
- 01 Jan 1993 - 
TL;DR: Spatial analysis of published data on badger setts and latrine sites from five study localities in Britain suggests the model might be appropriate to other vertebrates for which an established den or nest site could represent a key resource to be costed in an energy currency in the animal's defence budget.
