Identifying socioeconomic and biophysical factors driving forest loss in protected areas

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 4, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Protected areas (PAs) are a commonly used strategy to confront forest conversion and biodiversity loss. Although determining drivers of forest loss is central to conservation success, understanding of them is limited by conventional modeling assumptions.

Conserving urban tropical biodiversity by connecting networks of green patches 连通绿地斑块, 保护热带城市生物多样性 Memulihara biodiversiti tropika bandar dengan menghubungkan rangkaian tompok kawasan hijau

Integrative Conservation, Volume 2, Issue 2, Page 80-94, June 2023., 2023
The objective of this study is to characterise ecological connectivity for mammals and identify important patches and linkages for connecting urban green spaces for Greater Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Our results demonstrate the potential for Southeast Asian megacities to support biodiversity in the urban context, and the potential for a different kind of ...

Sunda pangolins show inconsistent responses to disturbances across multiple scales 马来穿山甲显示出对多尺度干扰的差异化响应

Wildlife Letters, Volume 1, Issue 2, Page 59-70, June 2023., 2023
We used three robust modeling approaches and the largest empirical dataset yet collected for Sunda pangolin to investigate their habitat associations and the likelihood of spatially and temporally overlapping with humans. We found the species has an inconsistent response to disturbances across multiple scales, expected to be driven by Singapore's ...

Key n‐Gram Extractions and Analyses of Different Registers Based on Attention Network

Journal of Applied Mathematics, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Key n -gram extraction can be seen as extracting n‐grams which can distinguish different registers. Keyword (as n = 1, 1‐gram is the keyword) extraction models are generally carried out from two aspects, the feature extraction and the model design.

A spatially explicit empirical model of structural development processes in natural forests based on climate and topography

Conservation Biology, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 194-206, February 2020., 2020
Abstract Stand structure develops with stand age. Old‐growth forests with well‐developed stand structure support many species. However, development rates of stand structure likely vary with climate and topography. We modeled structural development of 4 key stand variables and a composite old‐growth index as functions of climatic and topographic ...

The Role of Technology Standards in Strategic Hedging

Asian Politics &Policy, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This article argues that technology standards provide Southeast Asian states with a distinct mechanism for hedging amid intensifying US–China technological rivalry. Traditional hedging strategies emphasizing economic engagement without political alignment are increasingly constrained by the weaponization of technological interdependence ...

Capacity‐Learning Paradox: How Hong Kong and Singapore's Crisis Responses Shape and Are Shaped by Policy Capacities

Review of Policy Research, Volume 43, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examines the paradoxical relationship between policy learning and capacity: governments need certain capacities to learn effectively, yet these same capacities often emerge from previous learning experiences. Through a comparative analysis of Hong Kong and Singapore's responses to SARS and COVID‐19, we demonstrate how policy ...

Achieving Transboundary Water Security Through Water Innovations: A Framework and Cases

World Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Alternative sources of freshwater, provided by various innovations, have long been available to countries facing acute water stress. We hypothesize that avoiding and/or resolving conflict with neighbors—caused by the uncertainty of continued access to shared surface water and groundwater sources—is another driver of innovation adoption ...
