TL;DR: It is concluded that an ambitious goal to describe 10 million species in less than 50 years is attainable based on the strength of 250 years of progress, worldwide collections, existing experts, technological innovation and collaborative teamwork.
Journal ArticleDOI
Little ecological divergence associated with speciation in two African rain forest tree genera
Thomas L. P. Couvreur,Holly Porter-Morgan,Holly Porter-Morgan,Jan J. Wieringa,Lars W. Chatrou +4 more
TL;DR: Ecology is almost always involved in speciation, however, it would seem to have had a little role in species generation within Isolona and Monodora at the scale analyzed here, consistent with the geographical speciation model for TRF diversification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Addressing target two of the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation by rapidly identifying plants at risk
James S. Miller,Holly Porter-Morgan,Holly Porter-Morgan,Hannah Stevens,Brian M. Boom,Gary A. Krupnick,Pedro Acevedo-Rodríguez,James Fleming,Micah Gensler +8 more
TL;DR: Two streamlined methods for identifying those plant species considered At Risk under the GSPC Target two are compared and contrasted and both use readily available locality data from herbarium specimens to efficiently identify At Risk species and approximate the list of species that would be identified as threatened by Red List analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Research Note—A New Method for Mapping Population and Understanding the Spatial Dynamics of Disease in Urban Areas: Asthma in the Bronx, New York
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed the Cadastral-Based Expert Dasymetric System (CEDS), an interpolation method using ancillary information to delineate areas of homogeneous values.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toward Target 2 of the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation: An Expert Analysis of the Puerto Rican Flora to Validate New Streamlined Methods for Assessing Conservation Status
James S. Miller,Gary A. Krupnick,Hannah Stevens,Holly Porter-Morgan,Holly Porter-Morgan,Brian M. Boom,Pedro Acevedo-Rodríguez,James D. Ackerman,Duane A. Kolterman,Eugenio Santiago,Eugenio Santiago,Christian Torres,Jeanine Velez +12 more
TL;DR: Two systems that efficiently use available data to assess conservation status were tested against a provisional International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN) Red List analysis to evaluate the native seed plant species of Puerto Rico and it was demonstrated that both systems efficiently identify species at risk.
