Evaluating protected areas’ coverage of threats to terrestrial biodiversity
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Protected areas (PAs) are vital for biodiversity conservation and have expanded globally. However, increasing pressures on biodiversity make it difficult to achieve conservation goals. Using threat probability maps based on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List and the World Database of Protected Areas, we analyzed the ...

Community‐informed and codesigned research to understand the impacts of railways on wildlife
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Trains cause mortalities of several animal species, but the ecological impacts of railways are understudied. Most research on wildlife–train collisions has focused on large mammals, but understanding railway‐specific risks for underrepresented taxa, especially vulnerable species, is important for developing effective mitigation strategies ...

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 148-158, April 2025.Background – Biofilm production by canine otitis externa (COE) pathogens and resistance development to multiple antimicrobials are commonly reported problems in veterinary practice. The use of adjuvants to disrupt biofilms may be a viable adjunctive therapy.

Engaging youth in biodiversity education through visual narrative
Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 6, December 2024.Abstract Engaging youth in early and sustained conservation education has important implications for promoting positive attitudes and behaviors in those who will become the future of conservation and management. Toward this goal, visual narratives (comic books, graphic novels) are an increasingly popular method used by conservation scientists to ...

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 6, December 2024.Abstract Conservation scientists work in diverse settings, sometimes requiring them to exist in spaces where they do not feel safe, included, or accepted. This is often the case for the LGBTQIA+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, intersex, asexual, and others) community, which is frequently marginalized in conservation spaces. We

半刚性钢框架-冷弯薄壁型钢填充复合墙板结构的计算模型及时程分析
Jianzhu Gangjiegou Jinzhan, 2021 为推广冷弯薄壁型钢填充复合墙板在高层结构中的应用,进一步了解该冷弯薄壁型钢填充复合墙板作为抗侧力构件应用于高层结构中的抗震性能,将冷弯薄壁型钢填充复合墙板引入半刚性钢框架结构中并研究其抗震性能。基于有限元分析软件SAP2000,采用Pivot恢复力模型对冷弯薄壁型钢填充复合墙板进行简化分析,并推导出墙板P-Δ骨架曲线关系公式;采用转角弹簧单元对矩形钢管柱与H形钢梁单边高强螺栓连接节点进行简化分析;并在此基础上建立半刚性钢框架-冷弯薄壁型钢填充复合墙板结构简化分析模型。在此简化基础上 ...

Jianzhu Gangjiegou Jinzhan, 2013 节点刚度对钢结构的抗震性能有很大的影响。基于模态推覆分析MPA方法,初步探讨了节点半刚性对钢交错桁架在大震作用下抗震性能的影响。运用通用有限元软件SAP2000建立了平面模型,并修改节点塑性铰的属性和初始刚度来模拟钢交错桁架的半刚性节点,对比发现采用了半刚性节点的钢交错桁架,相对于完全刚接的情况,其基本自振周期、楼层侧移和层间位移角明显增大,塑性铰分布较为分散,数量减少,在大震下的耗能能力明显改善。

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 5, October 2024.Abstract Managing invasive species is crucial to mitigate their negative impacts on ecosystems, yet conflicts may arise when their social benefits are disregarded. Human pressure on the endemic‐rich forests of São Tomé has been high since the island was discovered by the Portuguese in the 15th century, and numerous species have been introduced.

Rates of tree cover loss in key biodiversity areas on Indigenous Peoples’ lands
Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 3, June 2024.Abstract Indigenous Peoples’ lands (IPL) cover at least 38 million km2 (28.1%) of Earth's terrestrial surface. These lands can be important for biodiversity conservation. Around 20.7% of IPL intersect areas protected by government (PAs). Many sites of importance for biodiversity within IPL could make a substantial but hitherto unquantified contribution

Review of hyperdispersal in wildlife translocations
Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 1, February 2024.Abstract Species translocation is a common tool to reverse biodiversity loss, but it has a high failure rate. One factor that contributes to failure is postrelease hyperdispersal, which we define as the long‐distance movement of individuals resulting in their failure to contribute to population establishment.
