New paper - from coauthors at @CefasGovUK and showcasing some work I did there. We built a "Risk Tool", which uses historical fishing data to simulates the change in risk due to fishing displacement resulting from potential redesigning of protected areas. doi.org/10.1016/j.biocon.202…

Before human-driven degradation, European wildwoods were rich in hazel, oak, and yew—species thriving on disturbances likely caused by large herbivores. 🫎 🐘 🦬 Happy to finally share this work! 🥳🌳 lnkd.in/gXVWZQxy
