Climate‐driven ‘species‐on‐the‐move’ provide tangible anchors to engage the public on climate change

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 5, Issue 5, Page 1384-1402, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Over recent decades, our understanding of climate change has accelerated greatly, but unfortunately, observable impacts have increased in tandem. Both mitigation and adaptation have not progressed at the level or scale warranted by our collective knowledge on climate change.

First Documentation of Two Rare Fern Species in Xishuangbanna National Nature Reserve, Yunnan, China

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 173-176, June 2026.
We report two rare ferns in Menglun Sub‐reserve in Xishuangbanna National Nature Reserve, Yunnan Province, China. These represent the first documented distribution of the previous Laotian endemic fern species in Yunnan and China as well. Our observations confirmed the shared plant diversity in China‐Laos border and also represent the need for more ...

Threats to the World's Bears and Efforts to Conserve Them: Perspectives and Actions of IUCN Bear Specialist Group Members 世界熊类面临的威胁及其保护努力:IUCN熊类专家组成员的观点与行动

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 177-191, June 2026.
A survey of IUCN Bear Specialist Group (BSG) members revealed that habitat loss, degradation and fragmentation is the greatest threat to each of the 7 species of terrestrial bears. Poaching and human–bear conflicts are also high threats for some of these species.

Harnessing social media data to track species range shifts

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Biodiversity monitoring programs and citizen science data remain heavily biased toward the Global North. Especially in megadiverse countries with limited biodiversity records, incorporating social media data can help address existing data gaps.

Use of species’ responses to cryptic anthropogenic disturbances for monitoring biodiversity outcomes in tropical forests

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Measuring area‐based conservation outcomes in tropical forests is challenging due to cryptic human disturbances (e.g., hunting). As a result, comparative studies of management strategies providing quantitative outcomes remain scarce, especially in the Neotropics.

Urbanization and Seasonality Increase Introduced Plant Consumption by the World's Southernmost Parrot 城市化与季节性增加了全球最南端鹦鹉对引入植物的取食

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 86-103, March 2026.
Urbanization may alter bird foraging. Austral Parakeets (Enicognathus ferrugineus) in Patagonia rely on introduced plants in urban areas, especially in winter, despite preferring natives in the wild. This seasonal reliance on introduced species highlights urbanization trade‐offs and underscores the need to manage green areas with native plants to ...

Sun Bear Ecology and Conservation: Multiscale Habitat Associations in Southeast Asia 马来熊的生态与保护:东南亚地区的多尺度生境关联研究

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 125-136, March 2026.
We collated detections of the sun bear from new and previously published camera trap studies across its range. We then analysed these detections at two different spatial scales to assess the habitat associations and diel activity of this species. We found that the sun bear is tolerant to moderate habitat disturbances. ABSTRACT Degraded tropical forests,

CHINA’S LAND FINANCE AS ACTIVE MODE OF LAND DEVELOPMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE DELIVERY: Reality, History and Prospects

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, Volume 50, Issue 1, Page 191-220, January 2026.
Abstract Henry George advocated for capturing land value increases for public ends. The active approach of public authorities organizing and financing land development can help capture higher land value increases, as Hartman and Spit indicate. However, this approach hardly happens in developing countries, where the coalition of private developers and ...

Identifying potentially suitable and accessible refugia to mitigate impacts of an emerging disease on a rare tree

open access: yesConservation 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 ...
