In our new paper, Manuela Mediolar explains how fishing policies can lead to smaller fish in the ocean & on the plate. We propose new balanced harvest metrics & optimize them under a yield constraint doi.org/10.1016/j.mbs.2023.1… w Jerzy Filar & Sabrina Streipert @PittTweet #austms2023

1/6 Bees are great as they pollinate our beloved coffee! Sadly, habitat homogenization is threatening their survival. Our study explores solutions to maximize coffee production and land for restoration to diminish their decline🧵 @RKRunting @McMadLab @MayfieldLabMelb

Our new paper on sustainability trade-offs in the beef industry shows that current global beef production is inefficient (in terms of costs & emissions) we could reduce emissions 34–85% without increasing costs. Led by Adam Castonguay @naturesustainab

Does one cat in the trap equal to two rats in the bush? Or 77?
Check out our new paper introducing the idea of invasive species equivalence when it comes to protecting threatened species.

Awful, awful stuff. We need to examine and rectify this in Australia too, bullying is absolutely systemic.

2/5 We accounted for the spatial variances of land opportunity cost to examine the trade-offs and synergies among biodiversity conservation, carbon and water services maintenance, and investments that are social equitable at the national scale using #Colombia as a case study.

3/5 We found that there're trade-offs between water services and biodiversity, and between social equity and biodiversity. Therefore, targeting just one of these objectives may lead to poor outcomes for the others. However, there's a low trade-off between carbon and biodiversity.

Multi-objective decisions are thwart with trade-offs and ecosystem services to guide sustainable land use is no different. Check out @SofiaLop11 paper exploring these trade-offs for water and carbon services as well as social equity!!

1/5 Payment for Ecosystem Services have a big potential to protect biodiversity while achieving social and economic benefits. However, defining their objectives and the spatial allocation is not easy task. Our framework explores trade-offs among objectives sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
