Wildlife Letters, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 23-31, March 2026.American badgers, a medium‐sized carnivore occurring in much of North America, are important predators in prairie landscapes though our understanding of their habitat use requirements in these areas is unclear. We used a multi‐scale approach to understand American badger habitat use at both local and landscape scales.

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract Spatial segregation in at‐sea distribution is frequently observed in seabirds and can have important implications for conservation and management. Globally, many albatross and petrel populations are declining due to bycatch in fisheries. In South Georgia, the decrease in wandering albatrosses (Diomedea exulans) differs among breeding sites ...

Effects of organized guarding on mortality from human–elephant conflict in northeast India
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract Human–elephant conflict (HEC) frequently results in human and elephant mortality, posing major social justice and conservation concerns across Asia and Africa. Although a variety of interventions have been introduced to mitigate HEC, rigorous evaluations of how they affect mortality are practically nonexistent.

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.Abstract Identifying refugia from emerging threats is vital to ensure the persistence of rare and threatened species, but modeling habitat distribution for these species is challenging and the role of people in refuge management is rarely considered. Myrtle rust is an emerging infectious disease that represents a grave threat to the rare wetland tree ...

Dianci bileiqi, 2014 针对多级电涌保护器（SPD）安装在电源线路时可能对负载电压起到抑制作用,而导致SPD达不到预期的有效性保护的问题,通过组合波发生器（1.2/50μs、8/20μs）模拟雷电流,对负载分别为阻性、容性、感性时,特性阻抗值相同、长度不同的RVVP电缆做冲击试验,研究负载与RVVP电缆特性阻抗匹配关系及波电缆中的折反射现象,分析电缆的长度与不同特性负载的关系,得出当负载为阻性时,多级电涌保护器的有效防护距离与电阻值呈负相关;当负载为容性时,多级电涌保护器的有效防护距离与电容值呈先负相关后正相关;当负载为感性时,

Importance of connectivity for carnivore richness and occupancy in fragmented biodiversity hotspots
Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.Abstract Structural connectivity affects wildlife movement between habitat patches, contributing to the persistence of wildlife populations and their resilience to human‐induced and environmental changes. However, its importance to wildlife population persistence remains unclear, particularly in fragmented landscapes, where there are additional co ...

Dianci bileiqi, 2017 以暴露距离作为计算手段的电气几何模型存在雷电入射方向固定以及难以适用于输电线路小保护角等缺点。为此,改进雷电入射方式,将雷电入射方向扩大至[-p/2,p/2],并推导出不同雷电入射角下的暴露距离计算方法。以输电线路小保护角为例,传统方法与改进方法计算得到的绕击跳闸率分别为0.021 7、0.088 1次/（100 km·a）,对造成差异的原因从雷电入射概率和暴露距离两方面进行分析。分析表明,改进方法雷电入射概率为57.33%,小于传统模型;但其暴露距离在5.0 m左右波动,大于传统模型的1.35 m ...

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.Abstract Pollinator conservation schemes typically focus on conserving existing, restoring degraded, or creating new wild bee habitats. Their effectiveness depends on dispersal corridors enabling habitat colonization by bees. However, the role of seminatural linear landscape structures (LLS) in connecting pollinator communities across intensively ...

Assessing the Corn Belt as an anthropogenic barrier to migrating landbirds in the United States
Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 5, October 2025.Abstract Migrating landbirds adjust their flight and stopover behaviors to efficiently cross inhospitable geographies, such as the Gulf of Mexico and the Sahara Desert. In addition to these natural barriers, birds may increasingly encounter anthropogenic barriers created by large‐scale changes in land use. One such barrier could be the Corn Belt in the
