Intangible drivers of tolerance shape human–elephant coexistence in Southwest China
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Southwest China is home to a small but rapidly expanding population of Asian elephants (Elephas maximus), whose growth has intensified conflicts with people living in shared landscapes. These conflicts result in substantial economic losses and occasional human casualties. This coexistence paradox—where conservation success leads to significant

Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.

Using customs data to understand overlooked trade in non‐CITES birds between Africa and Asia
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract The international trade in live birds poses risks to animals, people, and biodiversity. To effectively mitigate these risks, decision‐makers require information on the volume, dynamics, and direction of trade. Despite Africa once being the largest exporter of birds by region, very little data exist on recent trade in live birds not listed on ...

Evaluating the use of taxonomy in the IUCN Red List
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Taxonomy defines the units that conservationists strive to preserve for future generations. However, the discovery of new species and the taxonomic revision of existing species affect conservation efforts. Despite the importance of taxonomy for a species’ conservation, there is currently no overview of how those leading species extinction risk

Risks of concealing environmental degradation
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Current practice seeks to conceal the visual impact of land‐use change (i.e., development). Six percent of development impact assessments in Australia and 14% of the World Bank's assessments recommend visual impact mitigation. This mitigation results in, for example, vegetated buffer strips alongside cleared agricultural areas and earthen ...

How Do I Measure up? Social Influence and L2 Motivation in the Algorithmic Age
International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Comparative thinking is a fundamental human drive and a hallmark of contemporary life. For social action, such as the learning and use of additional languages, a target for appraisal (an L2 attribute) is evaluated in relation to a comparison standard (an appraiser's standpoint).

Learning Styles, Engagement and Anxiety in AI‐Mediated Writing: A Multimodal Feedback Study
International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence (AI) tools now permeate English academic writing. However, evidence on how feedback modalities align with student differences and with psychological mechanisms remains limited. Prior work often reduced learning styles to simple matches with delivery modes and treated learning engagement and writing anxiety as peripheral.

AI foundation models in plant biology
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Foundation models decode genomes, engineer proteins, phenotype crops, and drive AI agents across plant biology. This figure was created in BioRender (BioRender.com/xcmmkel). Summary Rapid technological progress has enabled plant biologists to accumulate unprecedented volumes of multi‐scale, multi‐modal data, yet this abundance of data has intensified ...

Biodiversity as a Dominant Force in Shaping Ethnic Music Styles 生物多样性:塑造民族音乐风格的主导力量
Integrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 236-245, June 2026.Our findings show that plant, bird, and mammal diversity considerably shape musical features such as vocal range and ornamental sounds, more so than geography or lifestyle. Our study provides the first empirical evidence linking biodiversity to ethnic music styles. Protecting biodiversity, the musical and cultural will be protected.
