Journal ArticleDOI
Remote sensing for biodiversity science and conservation
Woody Turner,Sacha Spector,Ned Gardiner,Matthew Fladeland,Eleanor J. Sterling,Marc K. Steininger +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed indirect approaches to derive meaningful environmental parameters from biophysical characteristics that can be used to identify species assemblages or even identifying species of individual trees.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Intersections of Biological Diversity and Cultural Diversity: Towards Integration
Jules Pretty,Bill Adams,Fikret Berkes,Simone Athayde,Nigel Dudley,Eugene S. Hunn,Luisa Maffi,Kay Milton,David Rapport,Paul Robbins,Eleanor J. Sterling,Sue Stolton,Anna Lowenhaupt Tsing,Erin C. Vintinner,Sarah Pilgrim +14 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that any hope for saving biological diversity is predicated on a concomitant effort to appreciate and protect cultural diversity, and that future policy responses should target both biological and cultural diversity in a combined approach to conservation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessing the evidence for stakeholder engagement in biodiversity conservation
Eleanor J. Sterling,Erin Betley,Amanda Sigouin,Andrés Gómez,Anne Toomey,Georgina Cullman,Cynthia Malone,Adam Pekor,Felicity Arengo,Mary E. Blair,Chris Filardi,Kimberley Landrigan,Ana Luz Porzecanski +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed evidence from the peer-reviewed and grey literatures related to the role of stakeholder engagement (both externally-driven and self-organized engagement) in biodiversity conservation at the local scale using both quantitative and qualitative approaches.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is argued that biocultural approaches, in combination with methods for synthesizing across evidence from multiple sources, are critical to developing metrics that facilitate linkages across scales and dimensions that help bridge the divide between ecosystems and human well-being.
