We're proud to celebrate the publication of a new paper by Dr. Terri Maness and collaborators in Estuaries and Coasts! Using coastal bird conservation as a case study, the team demonstrates a collaborative approach for identifying the research questions most likely to improve conservation and management decisions.
This work highlights the importance of partnerships among researchers, resource managers, and practitioners to ensure that scientific research directly informs conservation action and maximizes the impact of limited resources.
Congratulations to all of the authors on this important contribution to conservation science!
