Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Today, few watersheds remain untouched by global change processes arising from climate warming, impoundments, channelization, water extraction, pollution, and urbanization. The need for restoration has resulted in a myriad of interventions, generally performed at small scales, which have limited measurable impact in restoring biodiversity and ecosystem functions. We propose bringing nature-based restoration (also referred to as rewilding) principles to rivers and their watersheds to allow freshwater ecosystems to heal themselves and present a case study example for the Wolastoq, a transboundary watershed on North America's east coast. We aimed to identify key areas for the provision of the ecosystem function secondary productivity in the watershed and explored how the existing network of protected lands contributes to its conservation. We first developed species distribution models for 94 aquatic insects and 5 aerial insectivores and then considered human footprint and existing protected areas when employing spatial prioritization to meet 2 area-based targets (17% and 30% [i.e., Aichi Biodiversity Target 11 and Canada's 30×30, respectively]) for conservation or restoration of freshwater secondary production. Current conservation protection in the watershed was predicted to be insufficient to protect either ecosystem function providers or receivers of secondary production. By considering integrated conservation strategies, restoration and conservation actions can be better allocated throughout habitat patches to ensure sustained provision of ecosystem functions across the watershed. Nature-based restoration and conservation can help inform Canada's area-based targets, providing a framework for incorporating ecosystem functions into conservation planning and offering practical insights for policy and restoration efforts aimed at safeguarding biodiversity.Modelos del potencial de restauración basado en la naturaleza a través de los límites acuático‐terrestres Resumen Hoy en día, son pocas las cuencas hidrográficas que permanecen al margen de los procesos de cambio global derivados del calentamiento climático, los embalses, la canalización, la extracción de agua, la contaminación y la urbanización. La necesidad de restauración ha dado lugar a un sinfín de intervenciones, generalmente realizadas a pequeña escala, que tienen un impacto mesurable limitado en la restauración de la biodiversidad y las funciones de los ecosistemas. Proponemos aplicar los principios de la restauración basada en la naturaleza (también denominada resilvestración) a los ríos y sus cuencas para que los ecosistemas de agua dulce puedan curarse a sí mismos, y presentamos un ejemplo de estudio de caso para el Wolastoq, una cuenca transfronteriza de la costa este de Norteamérica. Nuestro objetivo era identificar las áreas clave para la provisión de la función ecosistémica de productividad secundaria en la cuenca y explorar cómo la red existente de tierras protegidas contribuye a su conservación. Primero desarrollamos modelos de distribución de especies para 94 insectos acuáticos y 5 insectívoros aéreos y después consideramos la huella humana y las áreas protegidas existentes al realizar la priorización espacial para cumplir dos objetivos basados en el área (17% y 30% [es decir, el objetivo de biodiversidad 11 de Aichi y el 30 x 30 de Canadá, respectivamente]) para la conservación o restauración de la producción secundaria de agua dulce. Se predijo que la protección actual de la conservación en la cuenca era insuficiente para proteger a los proveedores de funciones ecosistémicas o a los receptores de producción secundaria. Si se tienen en cuenta las estrategias de conservación integradas, las acciones de restauración y conservación pueden distribuirse mejor entre las zonas de hábitat para garantizar el suministro sostenido de funciones ecosistémicas en toda la cuenca. La restauración y la conservación basadas en la naturaleza pueden contribuir a los objetivos canadienses basados en la superficie, proporcionando un marco para incorporar las funciones de los ecosistemas a la planificación de la conservación y ofreciendo ideas prácticas para las políticas y los esfuerzos de restauración destinados a salvaguardar la biodiversidad.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
