The collective application of shorebird tracking data to conservation

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership

面向工程应用的先进绝热压缩空气储能模型及先进㶲分析 [PDF]

open access: yes全球能源互联网
先进绝热压缩空气储能(advanced adiabatic compressed air energy storage system,AA-CAES)仿真建模及分析是其工程实践的基础。然而,目前模型一般基于理想工况建立,分析结果与实际工况相偏差较大,无法指导工程应用。为此,在传统热力学模型基础上,考虑了空气流动阻力损失和能量转换设备损耗等因素,建立了面向工程应用的AA-CAES模型并以200 MW盐穴AA-CAES系统为例进行了分析。同时,对系统效率分析方法进行改进并对其进行了先进分析。结果表明 ...

How much biotic nativeness matters across human demographic groups

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Many central concepts of conservation biology—such as nativeness—are structured by ecological and social factors. However, the social consequences of using these concepts to make conservation decisions remain inadequately understood. Some researchers argue that nativeness, rather than acting as an objective proxy for important ecological ...

Informing spatial conservation prioritization with species’ traits

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract New Guinea, the most botanically diverse island on the planet, is the location for one of the boldest conservation initiatives. The Manokwari Declaration aims to achieve 70% conservation designation for the Bird's Head Peninsula. This is 40% higher than the 2022 Global Biodiversity Framework target.

Comprehensive framework for assessing and optimizing existing research networks

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Conservation, monitoring, and research networks, or collections of ecological research sites unified under a common mission of data collection or a research mission, are essential infrastructure for understanding large landscapes. However, most networks developed opportunistically over decades rather than through systematic design, creating ...

Global overview of progress in respecting the contributions of traditional knowledge in biodiversity governance

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Recognition and engagement of Indigenous Peoples and local communities (IP&LCs) and other traditional knowledge (TK) holders in formal biodiversity governance remain limited, despite their significant contribution to the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity through their knowledge, innovations, practices, and land stewardship.

Representation of obligate groundwater‐dwelling copepod diversity in European protected areas

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Groundwaters sustain diverse surface ecosystems and are populated by metazoan species, mostly invertebrates, that provide fundamental ecological functions and are often of prominent conservation value due to narrow endemism and high phylogenetic rarity.

Geographic risks to functional groups of mammals and birds from habitat loss in Mexico

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract There is a need to quantify the impact of habitat loss due to anthropogenic factors on different aspects of biodiversity, such as functional trait diversity represented by functional groups (FGs). We developed a metric to assess the weighted risk of loss of habitat for 33 FGs of mammals and 36 FGs of birds in Mexico based on potential ...

Influence of land-use and traffic-supply on travel pattern of shopping-mall in nine sub-districts of Hangzhou, China(街区土地利用、交通供给特征与大型超市购物出行模式研究)

open access: yesZhejiang Daxue xuebao. Lixue ban, 2013
基于杭州城西9个街区1 365份大型超市出行数据,利用居民个体属性、出行距离和土地利用特征3组变量,构建了多项逻辑斯蒂克决策模型,分析了街区土地利用特征对大型超市出行模式的影响.结论为大城市街区的“可达性提高”和“商住混合度增加”,可以明显提高大型超市出行的步行(2 km内)、自行车(4 km内)选择概率;公交服务水平的提升可鼓励大型超市出行的非机动化,但公交密度本身不足以抑制小汽车的选择.提出在“社区商圈”尺度中,有必要遵循空间组织的渐进规划思路,通过“土地利用-交通”一体化措施 ...

Building trust with marginalized communities in participatory acoustic monitoring through dynamic consent

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract There exists a growing suite of technologies that support significant and exciting progress in biodiversity conservation and research. Citizen scientist participation is common in this research and often focuses on data collection and labeling.
