Genomics and the challenging translation into conservation practice

Aaron B. A. Shafer, +44 more
TL;DR: Before the real-world conservation potential of genomic research can be realized, current infrastructures need to be modified, methods must mature, analytical pipelines need to been developed, and successful case studies must be disseminated to practitioners.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anthropocentrism: More than Just a Misunderstood Problem

TL;DR: This paper argued that anthropocentrism can and should be a powerful motivation for environmental protection and that human self-love is not only natural but helpful as a starting point for loving others, including nonhumans.

Why ecocentrism is the key pathway to sustainability

TL;DR: Kopnina et al. as mentioned in this paper argue that non-human nature has intrinsic value irrespective of human preferences or valuation, and they refute the claim that ecocentrism is misanthropic.
Journal ArticleDOI

Does red alder (Alnus rubra) in upland riparian forests elevate macroinvertebrate and detritus export from headwater streams to downstream habitats in southeastern Alaska

TL;DR: Although the Tongass National Forest does not recommend clearcutting as a means of generating red alder, maintaining an alder component in previously harvested stands may offset other potentially negative effects of timber harvest on downstream, salmonid-bearing food webs.
Journal ArticleDOI
