Subspecies taxonomy reflects social and geographic patterns of taxonomic effort in tetrapods
Abstract Subspecies have been used in conservation biology to account for intraspecific patterns in genetic diversity, which is crucial to long‐term population viability. Although over 3200 subspecies are currently assessed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List, their biological relevance remains controversial.

ABSTRACT Precise control of removal thickness is critical for laser cleaning of multilayer aerospace coatings particularly for selective removal without substrate exposure. However, the process response becomes highly sensitive near coating interfaces, making reliable parameter selection difficult.

Abstract Ecological niche models (ENMs) are used to assess the abiotic preferences of species by linking their occurrences to the environmental conditions in which they live. We developed a fossil‐informed ENM framework that integrates mid‐Holocene and modern occurrences to test niche stability and reconstruct abiotic niche characteristics for four ...

Psychometric framework for coexistence with large carnivores
Abstract Human–carnivore coexistence is essential for biodiversity conservation, yet measuring the attitudes and behaviors that support it remains methodologically challenging. We developed psychometric scales to assess willingness to coexist with carnivores and the underlying beliefs of this coexistence through an iterative expert elicitation process ...

Entrapping the Hegemon: How Benjamin Netanyahu's Threat Rhetoric Drives US Military Escalation
ABSTRACT How do materially weaker junior allies influence a hegemon's military posture? Existing theories rely on unobservable covert diplomacy, leaving alliance entrapment methodologically unresolved. This research note introduces a mixed‐methods framework, integrating computational text analysis, time‐series forecasting, and qualitative process ...

针对城市路段旅行时间精准推送的不足,提出一种基于动态规划变点检测算法的旅行时间预测方法。以车牌识别数据为研究对象,利用R-FPOP算法对旅行时间均值变点进行在线检测,研究变点时域分布特征;基于均值变点检测结果,预测旅行时间并给出其预测区间。结果表明:在线检测出的变点能够有效辨识旅行时间的均值突变,变点时域分布主要集中在高峰期;旅行时间预测值对实际序列变化趋势估计准确,推送的预测区间平均覆盖率为79.54%,具有较优的预测精度。论文方法兼顾旅行时间均值突变且建模简单 ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Decomposition is the transformation of dead organic matter into its inorganic constituents. In most biomes, decomposition rates can be accurately predicted with simple mathematical models, but these models have long under‐predicted decomposition in globally extensive ...

Intangible drivers of tolerance shape human–elephant coexistence in Southwest China
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

ABSTRACT Gradient structures (GS) introduced by plastic deformation have been shown to effectively enhance the surface properties of metallic materials. However, the GS fabricated by existing methods often suffers from limited hardening depth and limited control over the GS layer, which constrain their engineering applications.

Hypertension at 5 months postpartum in women with gestational diabetes
ABSTRACT Objective Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated with future maternal cardiovascular disease, independent of the development of Type‐2 diabetes mellitus. As a major cardiovascular risk factor, we examined the incidence and predictors of hypertension at 5 months postpartum in women with previous GDM.
