Evaluating synthetic substitutes to reduce illegal harvesting and support species recovery
Abstract Providing synthetic substitutes is a widely promoted strategy to shift consumer demand away from wildlife products derived from threatened species. Yet, there is little evidence on whether product substitution prevents illegal or unsustainable harvesting and contributes to the recovery of threatened populations.

Uncovering correlates of decline and critical refuges for a threatened terrestrial mammal
Abstract Globally, the geographic ranges of numerous species are contracting. Identifying spatiotemporal patterns of threat impact can illuminate why species decline in some parts of their range but persist in others. We developed a correlative approach to identify species’ response thresholds and locate ecological refuge areas associated with ...

Emotion and the Advocacy Coalition Framework: An Affective Dynamics Perspective
ABSTRACT Despite extensive evidence that emotion and cognition are deeply intertwined, the Advocacy Coalition Framework (ACF) lacks an analytically independent emotional mechanism in its causal architecture—an omission that may be particularly consequential in policy subsystems structured around morally charged, identity‐laden policy disputes.

This population‐comparative study reveals that male and female parents respond differently to social and ecological conditions. This sex‐specific responsive strategy is related to the incongruent parental care systems across populations in Chinese penduline tits.

太子河源头水源涵养林不同植被类型矿质态氮流失特征及其对环境因子的响应
以太子河源头水源涵养林为研究对象,分析不同植被类型地表径流和壤中流的氮流失特征,运用冗余分析和偏冗余分析对氮流失特征与环境因子之间的关系进行分析,并对其主要影响因子进行定量分解,探寻太子河源头水源涵养林氮流失特征的关键影响因子。结果表明:不同植被类型地表径流和壤中流硝态氮是氮流失的主要形态,地表径流硝态氮的浓度是铵态氮浓度的1.5倍,壤中流硝态氮的浓度是铵态氮浓度的20.5倍。无论是地表径流还是壤中流铵态氮和硝态氮流失浓度的大小顺序均为人工林>杂木林>次生林。受径流量和壤中流量的影响 ...

土壤饱和导水率(Ks)是反映土壤入渗性能与土壤持水能力的重要参数,为探究流域尺度下土壤Ks的空间分布特征及影响因素,更好地掌握土壤水文过程与调节机理,选取晋西北黄土丘陵区朱家川流域横向梯度(上游、中游、下游)不同土地利用方式下的土壤(70个样点)为研究对象,采用定水头法测定土壤Ks,并获取样点地形因子和其他土壤理化性质,通过建立土壤Ks偏最小二乘回归模型(PLSR),分析影响土壤Ks空间分布格局的主要因素。结果表明:(1)除土壤容重和砂粒含量为弱变异外,区域土壤理化性质其余因子均为中等变异 ...

We developed an effective ex‐situ conservation approach for an endangered orchid species, Dendrobium sinominutiflorum. A compatible fungal strain Tulasnella sp. was obtained by using in‐situ seed baiting technique. The Symbiotic germination with Tulasnella sp. significantly promotes seed germination and seedling growth.

This study reconstructs the phylogeny of the Javan Hawk‐Eagle (Nisaetus bartelsi) within the subfamily Aquilinae using Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian Inference algorithms on a blood sample and GenBank data. The analysis reveals that the sampled genus Nisaetus forms a monophyletic group. Furthermore, N. bartelsi occupies a sister‐taxon of N.
