The collective application of shorebird tracking data to conservation
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

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.

Abstract Constructed value of information (CVoI) is an expert elicitation decision‐analytic tool used to prioritize sources of uncertainty based on their potential to improve decision outcomes if resolved. Despite increased application of CVoI, the robustness of CVoI prioritization of sources of uncertainty relative to differences in expert elicitation

通过对高频绝缘心变压器进行磁路特征分析,基于电磁对偶原理和端口网络理论,提出了一种适用于绝缘心变压器的宽频等效电路模型。该模型由磁路等效电感、线圈间等效漏感和电容参数以及理想变压器构成。电感参数表征绝缘心变压器的磁场效应,电容参数表征变压器内部的电场效应。该模型适用于高频、不同匝数、绕组数的绝缘心变压器,对于某些类型的变压器也具有一定的实用意义。提出了基于端口网络理论和基于有限元分析的参数获取方法。采用有限元分析方法获取了宽频模型的所有参数,并结合电路仿真软件进行对比验证 ...

Bridge Damage Detection under Structural Health Monitoring System Based on Influence Lines [PDF]
在过去几十年内,中国修建了许多大跨径桥梁,这些桥梁一经建成就开始了结构劣化的过程,且损伤在整个服役期间不断累积,该类损伤甚至可能造成桥梁坍塌事故。因此,不少新建的大跨桥梁上都安装了结构健康监测系统,用以监测桥梁健康状态。但截止至目前,将健康监测系统的实测数据运用于桥梁损伤识别,至少有以下三点关键问题尚未有效解决:(1)从监测系统的实测数据中提取出对损伤敏感而对环境变化不敏感的损伤指标;(2)利用监测系统多传感器信息增强损伤决策的可信度;(3)优化传感器布置方案以达到最好的损伤识别效果 ...

Drivers of bat researchers’ intent to adopt field hygiene practices
Abstract Infectious disease is a growing threat to wildlife, with zoonotic transmission most likely at the human–wildlife interface. One underappreciated activity at this interface is fieldwork with wild animals, but associated risks can be mitigated through field hygiene (FH) practices, such as using personal protective equipment and other appropriate

雷电参数的分布情况与地域、大气条件等诸多因素相关,因此,全面深入地分析相关因素对雷电参数分布的影响十分必要。文中以广东省雷电定位系统数据为基础,基于Google Earth软件截取典型样本区域进行研究。将样本区域经过处理导入Arc Map中进行雷电参数的筛选分析,利用Arc Map的投影功能,按UTM标准进行投影,得出该区域的面积,由此求出落雷密度。通过对不同的地形、地域的雷电参数统计分析,得出山地落雷密度比平原大;城市落雷密度较比乡村地区大;通过对不同月份的雷电参数统计分析,发现雷电参数的季节分布明显,

Nitrogen Transports and Transformations in Mangrove Sediments using Nitrogen Isotope Techniques in China [PDF]
人类活动对生态系统的影响日益扩大,过量施肥、化石燃料的燃烧等引发的氮(N)负荷迅速增加。陆地生态系统过剩的N通过流域汇集至河口和海岸,威胁着海洋生态系统的健康。目前,全球N循环正致力于揭示河口和海岸地区N的源汇格局及主导机制。红树林湿地广泛分布于热带、亚热带河口和海岸地区,作为陆源营养盐入海过渡带,在缓解陆源N输入方面扮演着重要角色,成为了研究的热点。 本研究利用N稳定同位素技术,将现场培养与室内模拟培养相结合,揭示了我国东南沿海典型河口和海湾红树林湿地沉积物总氮沉积、固氮作用、反硝化作用 ...

Insights for conservation from the Ecological Knowledge Games project
Abstract Environmental conservation research requires robust methods for collecting large‐scale behavioral data and engaging diverse stakeholders in decision‐making processes. We (Y.P., A.B.D., and N.B.) created EcoKnowGames (Ecological Knowledge Games), a transdisciplinary project that develops knowledge games for conservation science and data ...
