Post-2020 biodiversity framework challenged by cropland expansion in protected areas

Ziqi Meng et al.

Summary: This study uses 30-m cropland maps to show that cropland expansion in protected areas accelerated dramatically from 2000 to 2019, compared with the expansion of global croplands, threatening the aspirations of the post-2020 global biodiversity framework.

The Sixth Mass Extinction: fact, fiction or speculation?

Robert H. Cowie et al.

Summary: There have been five Mass Extinction events in the history of Earth's biodiversity, and the Sixth Mass Extinction may currently be occurring due to human activities. While some dispute the existence of the Sixth Mass Extinction, arguing that the rate of species loss is not significantly different from background rates, this viewpoint is flawed due to the bias of the IUCN Red List. Incorporating estimates of invertebrate extinctions suggests that the current rate of extinction far surpasses background rates, pointing to the start of the Sixth Mass Extinction.

The effects of defaunation on plants' capacity to track climate change

Evan C. Fricke et al.

Summary: Half of all plant species rely on animals for seed dispersal. Defaunation and novel community assembly affect plant adaptation to climate change through migration. Predicting pairwise interactions and dispersal function for fleshy-fruited plants globally can help forecast their assembly and functioning. Mammal and bird defaunation has already reduced the capacity of plants to track climate change by 60% globally, showing a synergy between defaunation and climate change that undermines vegetation resilience.

Patterns and Predictors of Small Mammal Phylogenetic and Functional Diversity in Contrasting Elevational Gradients in Kenya

Kenneth Otieno Onditi et al.

Summary: This study investigated the phylogenetic and functional diversity of small mammals in Mount Kenya and Chyulu Hills. The results showed that species and functional diversity peaked at mid-elevations in Mount Kenya, while it monotonically increased in Chyulu Hills. The distribution of diversity and the strongest predictors varied between these two mountain ranges.

A global reptile assessment highlights shared conservation needs of tetrapods

Neil Cox et al.

Summary: Global assessments have shown that 40.7% of amphibians, 25.4% of mammals, and 13.6% of birds are threatened with extinction, but reptiles have been excluded from these assessments. This study provides a comprehensive extinction-risk assessment for reptiles and finds that at least 21.1% of species are threatened, with similar major threats as other tetrapods. Reptiles in forests are more threatened than those in arid habitats. Threatened reptiles tend to be isolated from other threatened tetrapods.

Phylogenetic and functional diversity could be better indicators of macroinvertebrate community stability

Yang Liu et al.

Summary: This study compared the seasonal variations of different types of diversity between Chishui River and Heishui River, revealing that phylogenetic diversity (PD) and functional diversity (FD) are more sensitive than species diversity (SD) in indicating the effects of disturbances on biodiversity. Structural equation models showed that PD and FD had more significant effects on secondary productivity and P/B ratios than SD, suggesting that PD and FD may be better indicators of macroinvertebrate community stability in these natural river ecosystems.

The decline of mammal functional and evolutionary diversity worldwide

Jedediah F. Brodie et al.

Summary: Biodiversity is declining globally, primarily driven by habitat loss and harvest activities. Herbivores and frugivores are particularly vulnerable to declines from hunting and habitat loss, with significant implications for plant communities and nutrient cycling. While globally phylogenetically unique species do not have an elevated risk of decline, in certain areas they are more likely to be threatened.

Vulnerability of global biodiversity hotspots to climate change

Brittany T. Trew et al.

Summary: The review highlights the importance of climatic processes in shaping biodiversity hotspots and emphasizes the need to consider spatio-temporal variability in climate for vulnerability assessments. It suggests that fine-scale spatial variability and stability in climate may buffer some hotspots from future changes, while others with more variable climates may have greater resilience. Higher-resolution forecasts are necessary to inform conservation strategies and address the physiological responses of organisms to climate variability.

Climate change, not human population growth, correlates with Late Quaternary megafauna declines in North America

Mathew Stewart et al.

Summary: Research suggests that the disappearance of North American megafauna may be more closely related to climate change than human overhunting. There is no evidence of a persistent relationship between human and megafauna population levels over time.

Vulnerabilities of protected lands in the face of climate and human footprint changes

Nawal Shrestha et al.

Summary: Protected areas (PAs) play a crucial role in conservation efforts, but their effectiveness is debated. A multidimensional framework was proposed in this study to assess PA vulnerability and identify areas suitable for expansion. Nearly 10% of threatened PAs and around one-fifth of PAs with climate and anthropogenic vulnerabilities were identified in China, with high climate instability in species vulnerability hotspots.

Next-Generation Camera Trapping: Systematic Review of Historic Trends Suggests Keys to Expanded Research Applications in Ecology and Conservation

Zackary J. Delisle et al.

Summary: Camera trapping as an effective non-invasive method for collecting data on wildlife species has shown significant growth and application, but further development may be limited. Studies indicate a clear increase in both the quantity and diversity of CT articles, but certain aspects have already reached their limits. Future developments will require transformation of models and data sharing, as well as further improvements in technology and engineering.
