Influence of small dams on the stream temperature in a protected area of southern Quebec.
<p>Small dams represent 99% of the world's water impoundments, but little is known about their effect on river temperature. As stream temperature is an important variable in maintaining the aquatic ecosystems integrity, the study of the effect of small dams is necessary. This study purpose to understand the small dams effet on summer stream temperature in a protected area with low disturbance in southern Quebec, Canada. We compared four attributes of the thermal regime (magnitude, frequency and duration of warm events and rate of change) in streams i) upstream and downstream reservoir regulated by a small dam and ii) downstream reservoirs and natural lakes. with a generalized additive model, we also identified key determinants of August stream temperature. Compared to upstream reservoir conditions, we observed a 3.7°C warming in streams downstream of reservoirs regulated by small dams during August 2020. This warming wasn’t significantly different from that observed between upstream and downstream of natural lakes (3.4 °C). Proximity to an upstream waterbody, drainage area, and proportion of the watershed occupied by waterbodies were the principal determinants of water temperature in August, demonstrating the waterbodies importance on the thermal regime of streams.</p> <p> </p>
Data from: A burning issue: Savanna fire management can generate enough carbon revenue to help restore Africa's rangelands and fill protected area funding gaps
<p>Many savanna-dependent species in Africa including large herbivores and apex predators are at increasing risk of extinction. Achieving effective management of protected areas (PAs) in Africa where lions live will cost an estimated USD >$1-2 B/year in new funding. We explored the potential for fire management-based carbon-financing programs to fill this funding gap and benefit degrading savanna ecosystems. We demonstrated how introducing early dry season fire management programs could produce potential carbon revenues (PCR) from either a single carbon-financing method (avoided emissions) or from multiple sequestration methods ranging from USD $59.6-$655.9 M/year (at USD $5/ton) or USD $155.0 M–$1.7 B/year (at USD $13/ton). We highlighted variable but significant PCR for savanna PAs from USD $1.5–$44.4 M/year per PA. We suggest investing in fire management programs to jump-start the United Nations Decade of Ecological Restoration to help restore degraded African savannas and conserve imperiled keystone herbivores and apex predators. </p>
Global camera trap synthesis highlights the importance of protected areas in maintaining mammal diversity
<p>The establishment of protected areas (PAs) is a central strategy for global biodiversity conservation. While the role of PAs in protecting habitat has been highlighted, their effectiveness at protecting mammal communities remains unclear. We analyzed a global dataset from over 8,671 camera traps in 23 countries on four continents that detected 321 medium- to large-bodied mammal species. We found a strong positive correlation between mammal taxonomic diversity and the proportion of a surveyed area covered by PAs at a global scale (b = 0.39, 95% CI = 0.19, 0.60) and in Indomalaya (b = 0.69, 95% CI = 0.19,1.2), as well as between functional diversity and PA coverage in the Nearctic (b = 0.47, 95% CI = 0.09, 0.85), after controlling for human disturbances and environmental variation. Functional diversity was only weakly (and insignificantly) correlated with PA coverage at the global scale (b =0.22, 95% CI = -0.02, 0.46), pointing to a need to better understand the functional response of mammal communities to protection. Our study provides important evidence of the global effectiveness of PAs in conserving terrestrial mammals and emphasizes the critical role of area-based conservation in a post-2020 biodiversity framework.</p>

Distribution. Restricted and patchy range in NE Madagascar that includes the humid forest belt extending from the Marojejy Massif and the Andapa Basin to Maroantsetra; the Androranga River may be the NE distributional limit in the Tsaratanana Corridor, although further surveys are needed to confirm this, and the Antainambalana River in the Makira Forest protected area is currently regarded as the S boundary. Currently, Marojejy represents the N limit ofits distribution, although historic range maps suggest that it once occurred as far N as the Bemarivo River near Sambava. The NE distributional limit in Makira was only recently established, when a few groups were found in the Antohaka Lava Forest, but informal reports suggest that the unprotected Maherivaratra Forest, outside NE Makira, may also contain Silky Sifakas. in Indriidae
