Wild Pigs (Sus scrofa) Stand Their Ground: Investigating Flight Response, or Lack Thereof, to Perceived Predation Risk 野猪坚守原地:探究其面对感知捕食风险时的逃逸反应 (或无逃逸行为)

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.
We used automated behavioral response systems (ABRs) to assess invasive wild pig (Sus scrofa) behavioral response to four auditory playbacks: humans, coyote vocalizations (Canis latrans), pigs in distress, and barred owl (Strix varia) calls. Wild pigs had a significant flight response to human playbacks, but 68% of pigs did not flee.

The Training Complex: Shattering of the Coniunctio, Boundary Violation, and Sibling Turbulence on the Horizontal Plane

Journal of Analytical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores what is happening, for a trainee, when an ethical boundary violation occurs by the analyst with a fellow peer in training. I am approaching this through the Jungian concept of the alchemical vas as I attempt to make meaning of a catastrophic collapse of the analytic work.

Role of funders in embedding tests in conservation practice

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Effective conservation practice requires decisions based on reliable and relevant evidence, but significant gaps in the evidence base exist. Incorporating well‐designed tests of the effectiveness of interventions for biodiversity in conservation projects is one of the best ways to scale up the rate of evidence generation.

Integrating fossil data in ecological niche models to improve predictions of future habitat of Caribbean corals

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
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 ...

Comparative species distribution model framework for marine conservation and its application to loggerhead turtles in the Mediterranean

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modeling species distributions in dynamic pelagic environments remains challenging, particularly for wide‐ranging and highly mobile species when there is limited guidance on model performance. This limitation constrains the effective use of species distribution models (SDMs) in marine conservation, where robust and transferable predictions are

A methodological assessment and reflection on member checking as a form of participant validation for conservation social science

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Qualitative approaches are increasingly applied in conservation social science, yet methodological reflection remains limited. Member checking, a process of returning findings to participants for feedback, is widely recognized outside conservation as a means to enhance rigor and reciprocity, but it is rarely reported in conservation research ...

Alloy‐Type Anode Materials for Sodium‐Ion Batteries: From Single Metals to MultiComponent Alloys

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Sodium‐ion batteries (SIBs) are widely regarded as a promising alternative to lithium‐ion batteries due to their abundant sodium resources, broad geographical distribution, and low cost, rendering them particularly attractive for large‐scale energy storage applications.

Doping‐Engineered Modulation of Oxygen Vacancy Formation Energy in Gallium Oxide for High‐Performance Solar‐Blind UV Photodetectors

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Solar‐blind ultraviolet (UV) photodetectors (SBPDs) play a critical role in applications including UV communication and fire warning systems. Gallium oxide (Ga2O3) has emerged as a promising material due to its wide bandgap and low cost, but suffers from high dark current and slow response speed caused by oxygen vacancy (VO) defects.
