Conservation Biology has published three ‘virtual issues’ of Conservation Biology for the International Year of Biodiversity.  The issues each include 10-15 previously published articles from Conservation Biology, but access to these articles is now free of charge.  The virtual issues are:

• Connectivity and Corridors, April 2010
• Climate Change, April 2010
• Conservation Social Science, April 2010

Two of my articles are in the “Conservation Social Science” issue.  The first article was a collaboration with my Smith Fellows cohort, and the second was written by Tim Holland, who did his Masters with Andrew Gonzalez and I.

• Perceived Barriers to Integrating Social Science and Conservation by Helen E. Fox, Caroline Christian, J. Cully Nordby, Oliver R.W. Pergams, Garry D. Peterson, and Christopher R. Pyke
• A Cross-National Analysis of How Economic Inequality Predicts Biodiversity Loss by Tim G. Holland, Garry D. Peterson, and Andrew Gonzalez

Resilience colleagues also have two papers reprinted, the first in the climate change special issue, and the second also in the social science issue
