Summary: Freshwater biodiversity and the food system it supports are facing significant threats globally. Overfishing and environmental degradation have damaged ecosystem structures. Local politicians are hesitant to enforce regulations that would reduce fishing pressure and harm fishing communities. Aquaculture can address food supply issues, but has previously had negative environmental impacts. Modern aquaculture can utilize existing infrastructure to increase food production and create employment opportunities, facilitating policies that protect both food production and aquatic biodiversity.

Summary: This study examines the impact of urbanization on environmental degradation in Pakistan. The results show that urbanization is asymmetrically associated with environmental degradation, with positive changes leading to increased degradation and negative changes leading to a decline in degradation. Foreign direct investment and industrial production are significant factors contributing to degradation, while trade openness and money supply are negatively linked. Economic growth shows a positive relationship, while the square of economic growth has a negative relationship with environmental degradation.

Summary: Life on the ocean floor takes a long time to regenerate and flourish. If current consumption habits persist, it is likely that more than one planet's worth of resources will be needed to meet the growing population's needs. The fishing grounds footprint (FGF) is a crucial environmental indicator, reflecting the water area required for marine product production. Governments prioritize reformative policies and urgent actions related to FGF to protect biodiversity, ensure sustainable fisheries, and reduce water pollution. This study analyzes the FGF per capita of the top 10 fish-producing and catching countries, providing valuable insights for policymakers to develop comprehensive strategies and policies for marine conservation.

Summary: This study incorporated the footprint of freshwater species diversity into a hydropower environmental impact assessment and calculated the interprovincial transfer of freshwater species diversity in hydroelectricity transmission. It proposed an evaluation model for an interprovincial hydroelectricity transmission network using freshwater species diversity as the ecological element, and identified significant nodes and paths within the network. This research can help policymakers understand the challenges posed to freshwater species by interprovincial hydroelectricity transmission and provide a reference for ecological compensation in hydropower development.

Summary: Habitat conversion is a major driver of tropical biodiversity loss, but its effects in montane environments are unclear. This study on Colombian Andes found that lower elevation bird species are strongly impacted by nearby forest loss, while higher elevation species are relatively unaffected. There was limited evidence of within-species elevational gradients in sensitivity to forest loss. Overall, biodiversity response to habitat loss appears to be driven by interspecific differences in sensitivity rather than proximity to climatic thresholds.

Summary: This study investigated the geographic patterns and ecological correlates of the most common tree dispersal modes in Amazonia, including endozoochory, synzoochory, anemochory, and hydrochory. The results showed that anemochory was positively associated with mean annual wind speed, while hydrochory was higher in flooded forests. The availability of resources for constructing zoochorous fruits did not explain the distribution of dispersal modes. Further research is needed to understand the association between frugivores and the proportional abundance of zoochory.

Summary: For fish in streams, water-energy, productivity, and temporal heterogeneity hypotheses can explain their richness patterns. However, the assumption of spatial stationarity has not been tested extensively across diversity gradients. In this study, we used geographically weighted regression to quantify the spatial stationarity in relationships between fish species richness in small streams throughout Brazil and the aforementioned hypotheses. The results showed a lack of spatial stationarity in fish species richness and suggested that water-energy dynamics act as a metabolic restriction on community structuring.

Summary: Large wood plays a critical role in providing complex habitat structure in tropical rivers and streams. Local factors, such as channel dimensions, discharge, stream power, and riparian forest, are the most important predictors of instream wood. It is crucial to preserve the forested riparian zones in the Amazon and Cerrado streams to maintain the sources of wood and the channel morphology capable of trapping and retaining instream wood.

Summary: In this study, we analyzed the trophic structure and carbon sources supporting fish assemblages in five low-productivity rivers with different sizes. Using carbon and nitrogen isotope ratios, we found that detritus played an important role in sustaining fish assemblages, especially in smaller rivers. We also observed an increasing consumption of autochthonous primary producers with the increase in river size.

Summary: Timber extraction poses a threat to tropical ecosystems, and therefore, productive harvesting operations that protect biodiversity need to be designed. Different logging management options exist, ranging from less-intensive land-sharing logging to intensive harvesting combined with preservation of old-growth forest. Through simulations of logging concessions and production targets, this study examines how logging practices affect species abundances, population sizes, functional diversity, and trait characteristics in the Amazon rainforest. The results indicate that protecting old-growth forest is crucial for limiting biodiversity declines in tropical timber concessions, but compensatory payments are required to offset reduced profits.

Summary: This article highlights the need for urgent change in order to secure sustainable futures in response to the convergence of biodiversity and climate crises, widening wealth inequality, and the COVID-19 pandemic. The current focus on site-level interventions in tropical biodiversity centers is insufficient to address the disproportionate impact of distant wealth on biodiversity decline. The proposed Connected Conservation model aims to amplify positive flows and diminish negative flows in order to empower biodiversity stewards and achieve justice-oriented desired states.

Summary: Non-native species have impacts on freshwater biodiversity, increasing species richness and functional redundancy in headwater streams. However, removing non-native species can restore higher species richness and functional diversity. Non-native species are not directly related to land use, topographic, or connectivity variables, and they have similar responses to the environment compared to native species.

Summary: Inner phenomena, such as personal motivations and values, have a greater impact on people's proconservation attitudes than external factors like socioeconomic or environmental conditions. The results suggest that nurturing biospheric, traditionalistic, and altruistic motivations can enhance environmental stewardship, but addressing material poverty is crucial for improving conservation outcomes. Integrating the inner-outer perspective into conservation thinking and interventions can contribute to both environmental protection and human well-being.

Summary: Drought and fire reduce productivity and increase tree mortality in tropical forests. Fires produce pyrogenic carbon (PyC), which improves soil fertility and water holding capacity and selects for tree species capable of growing during droughts. This study found that forests with higher concentrations of soil PyC had higher soil fertility, lower wood density, and were more resistant to severe drought. Forests with a legacy of ancient fires had higher carbon gains during droughts compared to forests with low soil PyC concentrations. This suggests that past fires have a lasting impact on current forest dynamics and resilience to drought.

Summary: This study assesses the impacts of grazing on bird communities in the Eastern Andes of Colombia's paramo ecosystems. The research finds that grazing significantly influences vegetation characteristics and reduces bird species occupancy in the paramo. Grazed paramos contain fewer bird species with different community compositions compared to natural paramos. However, these differences are modest, suggesting that low-intensity grazing may be compatible with conservation management.
