Short note out in Oryx highlighting lessons from the latest update of our #database of #biodiversity data sources. But is the continued proliferation of data sources adding to confusion rather than improving #conservation #monitoring?

The Global Wetland Outlook 2025 is the most comprehensive assessment to date of the state of wetlands worldwide, their value, and their future...
#RamsarCOP15

[UN Environment Programme @UNEP]

As delegates gather for #RamsarCOP15 to strengthen international commitments to wetland conservation, the #GlobalWetlandOutlook2025 by @RamsarConv highlights crucial global data on wetland status and necessary restoration solutions.

🚨New research on Uganda’s largest carnivore survey in @ELSenviron GECCO! https://t.co/tq1iPKr0dT 🦁26,000 km driven, 232 camera sites show lions in decline in Kidepo and QE, but hope in Murchison (240 🦁). Hyenas faring well, leopards strong in Murchison & Mburo. Our work brings together >100 collaborators, 47 authors, and 20 NGOs together across six protected areas.

NEW: Human Dimensions of Forest Landscape #Restoration.
This is essential reading for anyone engaged in restoring #forest #landscapes. Unless human dimensions are considered alongside ecological we will never achieve the restoration the world needs.

What #biodiversity #metrics& #data are needed to plan, #monitor & verify a credible voluntary biodiversity credits market? I’ll be diving into this & more in an exciting new research project. Watch this space!

Europe's seas are getting crowded. Activities need to be colocated. So can we safely place offshore wind farms in marine protected areas?
