Wildlife Letters, Volume 1, Issue 3, Page 119-130, September 2023., 2023 We collected Amur tiger track data and occurrence data through snow track tracking, sample line surveys, and camera traps. The study concluded that forest roads, scrub vegetation, and human landscape factors were the main factors influencing Amur tiger movements at fine scales and examined the negative correlation between tiger path curvature values ...

Survey optimization for invasive Burmese pythons informed by camera traps 基于自动相机监测技术的入侵物种缅甸蟒的调查优化
Wildlife Letters, Volume 1, Issue 3, Page 143-148, September 2023., 2023 We evaluated the utility of camera traps to survey invasive Burmese pythons in the Florida Keys by deploying cameras pointed towards target areas of known radiotagged snakes under two trigger mechanisms—motion‐triggered or timelapse. We estimated detection probability and diel activity to optimize future surveys using timelapse camera traps and paired ...

Trends and progress in studying butterfly migration 蝴蝶迁徙行为的研究趋势与进展
Integrative Conservation, Volume 1, Issue 1, Page 8-24, December 2022., 2022 We show (i) the potential importance of non‐English‐language literature for understanding butterfly migration globally, (ii) studies are mostly concentrated in North America and Europe with very few from the tropics, (iii) most studies are focused on three species: the Monarch (Danaus plexippus), Painted Lady (Vanessa cardui) and Red Admiral (Vanessa ...

Unravelling the processes between phenotypic plasticity and population dynamics in migratory birds
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 91, Issue 5, Page 983-995, May 2022., 2022 This work highlights the critical role of the stopover stage of northward migration in the influence of migration tactics and population dynamics of migratory birds across the whole annual cycle. The authors also demonstrate the key processes linking individual migration tactics and population dynamics.

Disasters, Volume 46, Issue 1, Page 95-118, January 2022., 2022 This paper presents evidence relating to a forecast‐based cash and non‐food item distribution among vulnerable herder households during the 2017–18 dzud (extreme winter) season in Mongolia, and analyses the results of a quasi‐experimental study evaluating its impacts. An innovative approach in disaster risk reduction, forecast‐based financing (FbF) can

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.Eimeria saudiensis represents a genus of apicomplexan parasites capable of inducing coccidiosis in Arabian oryx. Our research concentrated on the morphological and molecular investigation of Eimeria spp. in the captive oryx herd in Oman. The therapeutic and management practices employed at the Mammals Breeding Center were reassessed to diminish ...

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.Asiatic black bears in Russia face conservation threats such as habitat destruction and fragmentation, which exacerbate food shortages caused by crop failures. This study explores an innovative approach to rehabilitating bears that abandon hibernation in mid‐winter due to extreme exhaustion by providing supplemental food near their den sites.

Overreliance on Orthographic Similarity in L2‐Japanese Conceptual Processing by L1‐Chinese Learners
International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Orthographic and phonological similarities between first (L1) and second (L2) languages can facilitate L2 processing. Particularly, L1‐Chinese learners of L2‐Japanese can benefit from the shared morphosyllabic Chinese characters (Japanese kanji/Chinese hanzi) because of their similar orthographies.

Nutrient‐specific compensation for seasonal cold stress in a free‐ranging temperate colobine monkey
Functional Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 9, Page 2170-2180, September 2018., 2018 Plain Language Summary Abstract Homeostatic responses of animals to environmentally induced changes in nutrient requirements provide a powerful basis for predictive ecological models, and yet, such responses are virtually unstudied in the wild. We tested for macronutrient‐specific compensatory feeding responses by free‐ranging golden snub‐nosed monkeys
