Hileman, J., Bodin, Ö. 2019. Balancing Costs and Benefits of Collaboration in an Ecology of Games. Policy Studies Journal, Volume 47, Issue 1, Special Issue: The Ecology of Games as a Theory of Polycentricity, February 2019, Pages 138-158
The growth of collaborative approaches to governance has resulted in increasingly complex policy and management landscapes, where actors are presented with ever‐increasing numbers of decision‐making venues they can participate in and actors they can collaborate with. Given that actors face constraints on their capacity to manage actor and venue relationships in such polycentric governance systems, we assume the marginal benefi...
Österblom, H. 2019. The world is yours. The Lancet, Volume 393, Issue, 10171, P528-529, February 09, 2019
“Let me know when you publish in The Lancet!” This is my father's standard reply when I produce scientific publications. His paper in said journal from 19831 is from a time when gender differences received limited attention in science. In 2018, however, things are different. When two white men published a list of 100 important articles for ecologists,2 I thought “what a nice summary”. 14 female scientists and two male scientis...
Jouffray, J-B., Wedding, L.M, Norström, A., Donovan, M.K. et.al. 2019. Parsing human and biophysical drivers of coral reef regimes. Proceedings of the Royal Society B, 6 February 2019 Volume 286 Issue 1896
Coral reefs worldwide face unprecedented cumulative anthropogenic effects of interacting local human pressures, global climate change and distal social processes. Reefs are also bound by the natural biophysical environment within which they exist. In this context, a key challenge for effective management is understanding how anthropogenic and biophysical conditions interact to drive distinct coral reef configurations. Here, w...
Lago, M., Boteler, B., Rouillard, J., Abhold, K. et.al. 2019. Introducing the H2020 AQUACROSS project: Knowledge, Assessment, and Management for AQUAtic Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services aCROSS EU policies. Science of The Total Environment, Volume 652, 20 February 2019, Pages 320-329
The AQUACROSS project was an unprecedented effort to unify policy concepts, knowledge, and management of freshwater, coastal, and marine ecosystems to support the cost-effective achievement of the targets set by the EU Biodiversity Strategy to 2020. AQUACROSS aimed to support EU efforts to enhance the resilience and stop the loss of biodiversity of aquatic ecosystems as well as to ensure the ongoing and future provision of aqu...
McLeod, E., Anthony, K.R.N., Mumby, P.J., Maynard, J. et.al. 2019. The future of resilience-based management in coral reef ecosystems. Journal of Environmental Management, Volume 233, 1 March 2019, Pages 291-301
Resilience underpins the sustainability of both ecological and social systems. Extensive loss of reef corals following recent mass bleaching events have challenged the notion that support of system resilience is a viable reef management strategy. While resilience-based management (RBM) cannot prevent the damaging effects of major disturbances, such as mass bleaching events, it can support natural processes that promote resista...
Aston, E.A., Williams, G.J., Green, J.A.W., Davies, A.J. et.al. 2019. Scale‐dependent spatial patterns in benthic communities around a tropical island seascape. Ecography, Volume42, Issue3, March 2019, Pages 578-590
Understanding and predicting patterns of spatial organization across ecological communities is central to the field of landscape ecology, and a similar line of inquiry has begun to evolve sub‐tidally among seascape ecologists. Much of our current understanding of the processes driving marine community patterns, particularly in the tropics, has come from small‐scale, spatially‐discrete data that are often not representative of ...
Dakos, V., Matthews, B., Hendry, A.P., Levine, J., et.al. 2019. Ecosystem tipping points in an evolving world. Nature Ecology & Evolutionvolume 3, pages355–362 (2019)
There is growing concern over tipping points arising in ecosystems because of the crossing of environmental thresholds. Tipping points lead to abrupt and possibly irreversible shifts between alternative ecosystem states, potentially incurring high societal costs. Trait variation in populations is central to the biotic feedbacks that maintain alternative ecosystem states, as they govern the responses of populations to environme...
Roldán, A.M., Duit, A., Schultz, L. 2019. Does stakeholder participation increase the legitimacy of nature reserves in local communities? Evidence from 92 Biosphere Reserves in 36 countries. Journal of Environmental Policy & Planning, Volume 21, 2019 - Issue 2
The aim of this paper is to investigate if stakeholder participation increases the legitimacy of nature reserves in the surrounding community. Most previous studies of the effects of stakeholder participation in natural resource management have relied on case studies, but in this paper we use a combination of panel data from a two-wave survey (2008 and 2013) of 92 Biosphere Reserves (BRs) in 36 countries and semi-structured in...
Manel, S., Loiseau, N., Andrello, M., Fietz, K. et.al. 2019. Long-Distance Benefits of Marine Reserves: Myth or Reality? Trends in Ecology & Evolution, Volume 34, Issue 4, April 2019, Pages 342-354
Marine dispersal distance estimates are limited by the spatial scale of sampling design and therefore biased downwards. Active larval behavior, oceanographic eddies and fronts, tsunamis, marine debris, and translocations are potentially important, but overlooked, dispersal vectors over long distances. The largest marine reserves have the highest potential for massive and long-distance benefits but are the most isolated reserve...
