Wildlife Letters, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 73-83, June 2025.Blue sheep in Dhorpatan Hunting Reserve prefer alpine grasslands at 3800–4200 m on south‐facing slopes near water resources, favoring areas with low tree cover and dense ground cover, particularly rhododendrons, junipers, and Cyperaceae grasses. Their habitat significantly overlaps with livestock.

Effect of uneven tolerance to human disturbance on dominance interactions of top predators
Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 2, April 2025.Abstract Anthropogenic activities may alter felid assemblage structure, facilitating the persistence of tolerant species (commonly mesopredators), excluding ecologically demanding ones (top predators) and, consequently, changing coexistence rules. We aimed to determine how human activities influence intraguild relationships among top predators and ...

Indian Pangolin in Lamjung Requires Urgent Attention 尼泊尔拉姆琼县地区的印度穿山甲急需关注
Wildlife Letters, Volume 2, Issue 4, Page 204-213, December 2024.This study documented the first evidence of the Indian pangolin in Lamjung district, Nepal, finding three burrows and rescue evidence in Simalchaur Naringhat Community Forest. The burrows identified at an elevation of 530 m and characterized by moderate crown and ground cover (26%–50%), a 25° slope, and predominantly red soil, are indicative of a ...

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 4, August 2024.Abstract Eradicating invasive predators from islands can result in substantial recovery of seabirds, but the mechanisms that drive population changes remain poorly understood. Meta‐analyses have recently revealed that immigration is surprisingly important to the recovery of philopatric seabirds, but it is not known whether dispersal and philopatry ...

Shuitu Baochi Xuebao, 2016 通过室内模拟降雨试验，研究坡度与地表糙度对土壤侵蚀的影响。根据研究区坡耕地特点，试验共设计5个坡度，分别为9°，12°，15°，20°，25°，设计雨强为1.0 mm/min，降雨历时为60 min。结果表明：5个坡度下坡面径流总量表现为先增大后减少，在20°与25°坡面表现出显著性差异，地表糙度变异率降幅为12°＞9°＞25°＞15°＞20°；（2）次降雨产流量与坡度、糙度变异变率呈显著指数函数关系；（3）5个坡度其坡面产沙量表现为先增大后减少，产沙量在坡面梯度为3°的坡面之间以及20°与25 ...

Disasters, Volume 48, Issue 3, July 2024.Aid relations in protracted displacement comprise a diversity of actors with different influence and involvement over time. Building on the case of Sri Lanka's northern Muslim's expulsion from the north of the country in 1990, this paper investigates the dynamic space of aid relations in their drawn‐out internal displacement.

Understanding consumers to inform market interventions for Singapore's shark fin trade
People and Nature, Volume 6, Issue 2, Page 733-748, April 2024.Abstract Sharks, rays and their cartilaginous relatives (Class Chondrichthyes, herein ‘sharks’) are among the world's most threatened species groups, primarily due to overfishing, which in turn is driven by complex market forces including demand for fins.
