Hydro‐Insurgency: Weaponization of Water Resources and Infrastructure in Northeast Syria

open access: yesWorld Water Policy, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 924-938, November 2025.
ABSTRACT This article examines the strategic weaponization of water resources by Turkey‐backed armed groups in Northeast Syria (NES) within the broader context of the Syrian civil war. As the conflict evolved, water infrastructure—dams, rivers, and irrigation systems—became central to warfare, governance, and foreign agendas. The article introduces the

Climate and Land‐Use Changes Predicted to Jointly Drive Soil Fungal Diversity Losses in One‐Third of North American Coniferous Forests

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 11, November 2025.
This study assessed the potential impacts of climate and land‐use change on soil fungal diversity across four North American biomes. We found that climate change typically caused both diversity losses and gains, particularly in coniferous forests and among arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, whereas land‐use change mainly reduced diversity, especially in ...

Effect of primate protection on threatened and endemic vertebrates, plants, ecosystem services, and future climate refugia

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 5, October 2025.
Abstract Primates, 69% of which are threatened with extinction, are the third most specious order of mammals. We used primates as model taxa to examine the umbrella effects of primates on ecosystem services and the protection of other vertebrates and seed plants in Yunnan Province, China.

海州露天煤矿排土场复垦区不同土地利用类型土壤入渗特征

open access: yesShuitu Baochi Xuebao, 2017
为揭示排土场复垦区不同土地利用类型土壤的水源涵养功能,采用野外实地双环入渗试验和室内理化分析方法,系统地研究了海州露天煤矿排土场复垦区不同土地利用类型(乔木林地、灌木林地、农用地、荒草地)土壤入渗特性及其影响因素。结果表明:不同土地利用类型下的土壤初始入渗率、稳定入渗率和累计入渗量均表现为乔木林地>灌木林地>农用地>荒草地;不同土地利用类型下土壤入渗过程的拟合优度存在差异,G-P综合模型、Kastiakov模型、Horton模型的平均拟合优度依次为0.926,0.908,0.905。G ...

Community‐informed and codesigned research to understand the impacts of railways on wildlife

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 5, October 2025.
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 ...

Effects of Shifting Cultivation on the Western Hoolock Gibbon (Hoolock hoolock) in Western Myanmar 刀耕火种对缅甸西部西部白眉长臂猿 (Hoolock hoolock) 的影响摘要

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 503-513, September 2025.
Fire occurrence increased with proximity to roads and villages, indicating that human access and activity are major drivers of fire risk. We analyzed spatial patterns of fire in relation to human settlements. Our findings highlight the need for fire management strategies that consider accessibility and human presence in conservation planning.

滇中尖山河流域不同土地利用类型土壤抗蚀性

open access: yesShuitu Baochi Xuebao, 2019
为揭示滇中尖山河小流域不同土地利用类型的侵蚀特性,以滇中尖山河小流域4种不同土地利用类型(坡耕地、裸地、林地、园地)不同土层(0-10,10-20,20-30 cm)土壤为研究对象,通过对土壤抗蚀性15个指标的测定与分析,研究了不同土地利用类型对土壤抗蚀性的影响。结果表明:不同土地利用类型中坡耕地、裸地>5 mm土壤水稳性团聚体显著低于林地、园地,>5 mm水稳性团聚体含量表现为裸地(12.72%)大于坡耕地(8.93%),且坡耕地>0.25 mm团聚体随土层深度的增加而降低 ...

小江流域土地利用变化及其趋势分析

open access: yesShuitu Baochi Xuebao, 2006
运用遥感和地理信息系统技术,提取了小江流域1987,1995年和2000年土地利用空间数据,分析了1987~2000年间小江流域土地利用类型变化的幅度、速度以及类型之间相互转移,并应用马尔柯夫概率模型对小江流域2015年土地利用格局进行了预测。结果表明:13年来小江流域耕地、林地以及城乡工矿用地面积均显著增加,其中耕地增加最为显著,由1987年的345.1km^2增加到2000年的398.7km^2。小江流域土地利用变化速度很快,年均变化速度达0.49%;对单一土地利用类型来说 ...

Coastal reclamation impacts on carbon storage in China’s coastal wetland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
滨海湿地具有较高的初级生产力和较缓慢的有机质降解速率,是缓解全球变暖的有效碳汇,得到全球学术界的广泛关注。近年来由于人口增长和沿海城市的快速发展,海岸带地区围填海活动呈加剧趋势,导致滨海湿地的急剧退化。开展围填海活动对滨海湿地碳储量造成影响的研究,对我国海岸带围填海活动的优化管理、制定滨海湿地保护行动计划以及减缓气候变化的战略决策具有非常重要的学术价值和现实意义。 本论文以全国围填海区内的滨海湿地作为研究对象,基于全国围填海土地利用分类数据、滨海湿地和沿海自然保护区空间分布数据以及文献检索碳密度数据 ...
