Research on deformation monitoring of surrounding rock based on weak fiber grating sensing technology [PDF]
The prominent contradiction between high ground stress and low strength of surrounding rock in deep strata of coal mine leads to large deformation and instability disaster after roadway excavation.

Creating conservation strategies with value‐focused thinking
Abstract Biodiversity and human well‐being strategies are only as good as the set of ideas people think about. We evaluated value‐focused thinking (VFT), a framework that emphasizes creating objectives and strategies that are responsive to the objectives.

Understanding the structure of the Post‐2020 Global Biodiversity Framework. Abstract December 2022 finally saw the historic agreement of the Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (KM‐GBF), a landmark framework that sets to halt and reverse global biodiversity loss by remedying the multifaceted drivers behind biodiversity declines around the ...

500kV直流断路器快速机械开关典型故障特性及可靠性提升方法研究 [PDF]
直流断路器是构建柔性直流电网不可或缺的关键设备。快速机械开关是直流断路器中承载电流、实现快速分合闸、耐受分闸恢复电压的核心组件,其结构复杂、动作速度快、电气应力严酷、可靠性要求高,因而设计研制难度大,任一环节出现问题均会影响直流断路器乃至柔直电网的安全可靠运行。然而,目前快速机械开关由于存在设计选型不合理、工艺管控不严格、试验考核不完善等问题,导致在实际工程应用中故障率较高。针对已应用于张北柔性直流电网试验示范工程的500 kV直流断路器,分析了直流断路器研制、调试 ...

Introducing a common taxonomy to support learning from failure in conservation
Abstract Although some sectors have made significant progress in learning from failure, there is currently limited consensus on how a similar transition could best be achieved in conservation and what is required to facilitate this. One of the key enabling conditions for other sectors is a widely accepted and standardized classification system for ...

Considering science needs to deliver actionable science
Abstract Conservation practitioners, natural resource managers, and environmental stewards often seek out scientific contributions to inform decision‐making. This body of science only becomes actionable when motivated by decision makers considering alternative courses of action.

The rainforests of Southeast Asia have a high diversity of animals, many of which eat fruit and disperse the seeds of forest plants. Several large‐bodied species occur in these forests; these animals are predicted to have especially important seed dispersal roles but are also among the species most threatened by defaunation.

Data justice and biodiversity conservation
Abstract Increases in data availability coupled with enhanced computational capacities are revolutionizing conservation. But in the excitement over the opportunities afforded by new data, there has been less discussion of the justice implications of data used in conservation, that is, how people and environments are represented through data, the ...

Our study provides a new perspective into temporal beta diversity of daily riverine diatom communities. The results highlight the importance of taxonomic and functional temporal beta diversity and its decomposition, which is co‐driven by hydrology, nutrient and metal ions. We provide further evidence that environment regimes (e.g.

Motivations for the use and consumption of wildlife products
Abstract The dominant approach to combating the illegal wildlife trade has traditionally been to restrict the supply of wildlife products. Yet conservationists increasingly recognize the importance of implementing demand‐side interventions that target the end consumers in the trade chain.
