Genomics and conservation: Guidance from training to analyses and applications

Environmental change is intensifying the biodiversity crisis and threatening species across the tree of life. Conservation genomics can help inform conservation actions and slow biodiversity loss. However, more training, appropriate use of novel genomic me ...

Aligning actions with objectives in endangered species recovery plans

Alex Tunas Corzon

To achieve conservation objectives for threatened and endangered species, managers must choose among potential recovery actions based on their efficacy. Yet, a lack of standardization in defining how conservation actions support recovery objectives can imp ...

Climate change and energy performance of European residential building stocks-A comprehensive impact assessment using climate big data from the coordinated regional climate downscaling experiment

Kavan Javanroodi, Yuchen Yang, Vahid Moussavi Nik

In recent years, climate change and the corresponding expected extreme weather conditions have been widely recognized as potential problems. The building industry is taking various actions to achieve sustainable development, implement energy conservation s ...

Species conservation in the face of global environmental changes: surface-based modelling of geo-environmental data to identify vulnerable populations

Estelle Rochat

Human activities are resulting in many land-use changes, particularly due to urbanisation and intensification of agricultural practices. Because of these changes, in addition to climate change, many species are facing habitat degradation. In order to avoid ...

Seascape genomics to empower coral reef conservation strategies

Oliver Michele Selmoni

The future of coral reefs is under threat since anomalous heat waves are causing the death of reef building corals around the world. This phenomenon, known as "coral bleaching", has already resulted in widespread loss of coral over the past 30 years. Witho ...

Using Modern Conservation Tools for Innovative Management of Coral Reefs: The MANACO Consortium

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Joost, Oliver Michele Selmoni, Véronique Berteaux-Lecellier

Coral reefs are under threat and innovative management strategies are urgently required. However, discoveries from innovative fields of coral reef research are rarely transposed in practical conservation actions. This is mainly due to the difficulties in k ...

Seascape genomics as a new tool to empower coral reef conservation strategies: an example on north‐western Pacific Acropora digitifera

Stéphane Joost, Oliver Michele Selmoni, Estelle Rochat

Coral reefs are suffering a major decline due to the environmental constraints imposed by climate change. Over the last 20 years, three major coral bleaching events occurred in concomitance with anomalous heatwaves, provoking a severe loss of coral cover w ...

Regularity of solutions for a fourth-order elliptic system via Conservation law

Changyu Guo

In this paper, we obtain interior Holder continuity for solutions of the fourth-order elliptic system Delta(2)u = Delta(V center dot del u) + div(w del u) + W center dot del u formulated by Lamm and Riviere [Comm. Partial Differential Equations 33 (2008) 2 ...

On the Singular Local Limit for Conservation Laws with Nonlocal Fluxes

Maria Colombo

We give an answer to a question posed in Amorim et al. (ESAIM Math Model Numer Anal 49(1):19–37, 2015), which can loosely speaking, be formulated as follows: consider a family of continuity equations where the velocity depends on the solution via the convo ...
