- Journal of biogeography innovation awardsPublication . Dawson, Michael N; Correia, Ricardo; Li, Qin; Matthews, Thomas J.; Palmeirim, Ana FilipaABSTRACT: We are delighted to publish the first collection of papers submitted in response to the announcement of the Journal of Biogeography (JBI) Innovation Awards. These manuscripts were considered using JBI's standard editorial and peer review processes, and were additionally ranked in terms of the originality of their ideas, identification of a gap in knowledge, impact of findings and quality of preparation of the manuscript at each round of editorial review. The set published here are the top ranked among the submissions, and also hold their own among the novel, insightful, consequential and well-prepared manuscripts submitted year-round to JBI. The papers address a range of topics within biogeography's broad remit, the focal taxa represent divergent lineages of eukaryotes and other organisms with which they interact, and the research or teams span continents. We congratulate William Carvalho, Thais Vasconcelos and Frederic Windsor as the inaugural recipients of the journal of Biogeography Innovation Awards and their co-authors for sharing in this success.
- Bridging worlds: exploring synergies between the arts and biodiversity conservationPublication . Jaric, Ivan; Januchowski-Hartley, Stephanie; Mammola, Stefano; Malumbres-Olarte, Jagoba; Lux, Christina; Crowley, Sarah; Albert, Béatric; Correia, Ricardo; Giannoulatou, Ioanna; Jeschke, Jonathan; Ladle, Richard; Markes, Sarah; Mutiny, Jane; Pillai, Athulya; Sbragaglia, Valerio; Veríssimo, Diogo; Roll, UriABSTRACT: Collaborations between biodiversity conservation and the arts can lead to synergies and fresh approaches to intractable problems. These collaborations can yield diverse mutual benefits, such as offering reciprocal sources of inspiration, information, and learning; providing one another with new tools and resources for synthesis and innovation; securing funding; and contributing to increased visibility and influence. The arts may be uniquely poised to raise awareness, influence behavioral change, improve well-being, and assist with developing conservation tools and materials. Likewise, conservation can provide artists with relevant expertise, nature-based art material, samples, and resources, as well as inform sustainability aspects of the arts. Effective synergies between the arts and conservation will necessitate greater funding and institutional support, improved willingness to collaborate, better recognition of the benefits of artists’ involvement in interdisciplinary conservation teams, and sound empirical methods to gauge such collaborations.
