Preventing the development of dogmatic approaches in conservation biology: a review
A Martínez-Abraín, D Oro - Biological Conservation, 2013 - Elsevier
The application of management practices based on dogmas may lead to unexpected results,
and hence to the bad allocation of economic resources. This is an especially relevant …

Effects of decreased anthropogenic food availability on an opportunistic gull: evidence for a size‐mediated response in breeding females
Some opportunistic vertebrates exploit, and may largely rely upon, food generated by
human activities. Better understanding the influence of this additional anthropogenic food on …

Predictable anthropogenic food subsidies, density‐dependence and socio‐economic factors influence breeding investment in a generalist seabird
Recent European policies on the ban of fishing discards and the closure of open‐air landfills
are expected to reduce predictable and abundant food resources for generalist seabirds. In …
