Abstract:
Conservation initiatives overwhelmingly focus on terrestrial biodiversity, and little is known about the freshwater cobenefits of terrestrial conservation actions. We sampled more than 1500 terrestrial and freshwater species in the Amazon and simulated conservation for species from both realms. Prioritizations based on terrestrial species yielded on average just 22% of the freshwater benefits achieved through freshwater-focused conservation. However, by using integrated cross-realm planning, freshwater benefits could be increased by up to 600% for a 1% reduction in terrestrial benefits. Where

Abstract:
Long-term protection is needed to secure threatened freshwater ecosystems and the social and biodiversity values they provide. In the face of existing and future pressures, current approaches to freshwater protection are often inadequate for maintaining ecosystem values into the future. While terrestrial and marine ecosystem protection are well recognized and have area-based protection goals in global conventions, freshwater ecosystem characteristics have remained poorly represented in these goals.

Freshwater ecosystems are among the most threatened environments on our planet. Disturbances across the terrestrial landscape accrue within freshwater ecosystems and, combined with global stressors such as climate change and invasive species, create a complex situation for recovering imperilled fishes.

The parasite fauna in domestic animals, birds, fish, ixodofauna, some biohelminths’ circulation routes, and nematodes isolated from wood samples were studied. The fauna includes 50 species including 29 helminth species, of which 6 trematode species: Dicrocoelium dendriticum (D. lanceatum), Fasciola hepatica, F. gigantica, Paramphistomum cervi, Diplostomum spathaceum and D. paraspathaceum; 4 cestode species: Moniezia expansa, M. benedeni, Ligula intestinalis and Schyzocotyle acheilognathi; 18 nematode species: Ascaris suum, Ascaridia galli, Amidostomum anseris, Heterakis gallinarum, Syngamus tr

Abstract:
In Chile, a new cycle of extractive urbanization is rapidly unfolding, creating complex material and immaterial entanglements between the Andes Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. Central to this transformation is the desalination of seawater, which is pumped up from the coast to the mountains, an operation that significantly reshapes both seascapes and landscapes. Although these changes remain largely invisible across terrestrial and maritime environments, they are propelled by the paradigm of the blue economy and sustainability discourses. These narratives, while advocating for economic and env

Abstract:
Human demands on the world’s resources have led to one-third to one-half of the terrestrial planet being substantially altered by human activity. Some ecosystems such as grasslands and freshwater systems are more affected than others, but pollution has modified even the poles and the atmosphere. The major direct threats to biodiversity are covered in this module, including habitat fragmentation, invasive species, pollution, overexploitation, and global climate change. The underlying causes of biodiversity loss, on the other hand, are often more complex and stem from many interrelated factors,

Abstract:
The U.S. national parks have experienced significant climate-change impacts and rapid, on-going changes are expected to continue. Despite the significant climate-change vulnerabilities facing parks, relatively few parks have conducted comprehensive climate-change vulnerability assessments, defined as assessments that synthesize vulnerability information from a wide range of sources, identify key climate-change impacts, and prioritize vulnerable park resources (Michalak et al. In review). In recognition that funding and planning capacity is limited, this project was initiated to identify geogra

Abstract:
Vicksburg National Military Park (VICK) was established for its historical significance as a one of the principle military sieges resulting in a turning point during the American Civil War. The steep terrain around the city of Vicksburg was integral in the military siege, providing high vantage points and a substrate that was easy to entrench for the armies, but unknown to many is the fossil content, particularly a diversity of fossil mollusks. These fossils at VICK are important paleontological resources which have yet to receive focused attention from park staff, visitors, and researchers. T
