Effects of parachute science on local research capacity 降落伞科学对当地研究能力的影响
Abstract Strengthening research capacity is essential to address the global biodiversity crisis. Yet, parachute science often undermines this goal, and its prevalence, costs, and benefits are unclear. We analyzed 13,502 publications on primate research that we extracted from Scopus (1960–2022) to evaluate the effects of parachute science on local ...

Abstract Human development is a driver of global change and a major threat to biodiversity. Protected areas maintain and support biodiversity, but outside stressors, such as climate change and land use change, can negatively influence natural resources within protected areas.

Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates
Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.

Informal supply chains of wild meat from rural Amazonia and food security in an urban center
Abstract Iquitos, the most populated city in the Peruvian Amazon, is a hub in the regional supply chain of wild meat and supplies urban consumers. Studies on wild meat consumption have focused primarily on markets, limiting the scope of species considered to those that are economically valuable and potential inferences from those data.

Emerging applications of large language models in ecology and conservation science
Abstract Large language models (LLMs) mark a major development in artificial intelligence, with potentially transformative implications for ecology and conservation science. Built on advanced deep‐learning architectures, these models can support a wide range of tasks. We reviewed emerging applications of LLMs, drawing on the wider scientific literature

ABSTRACT Research on English‐Medium‐Instruction (EMI) highlights inadequate support for students transitioning from L1‐medium‐instruction to EMI. To date, little research has focused on how L2 students’ adaptation to an EMI environment influences their L2 learning motivation (LLM).

为探明红壤坡地枯落物敷盖的保水作用及其机理,在江西省北部德安县第四纪红黏土母质发育的红壤坡地开展定位试验,以裸露坡地为对照,研究枯落物敷盖措施实施15 a后对0—60 cm土层土壤的持水性、供水性和水分有效性的影响。结果表明:赣北红壤坡地的土壤水分持水能力低,供水能力弱,有效水含量少,仅为9.0%~11.1%;枯落物敷盖处理的红壤坡地(0—30 cm)土壤持水能力高于裸露坡地;低吸力范围(<100 kPa)枯落物敷盖处理的下层(30—60 cm)土壤供水能力高于裸露坡地 ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Wildfires are disrupting and regenerating forces in nature that affect all ecosystem components. However, the impact of wildfires on soil multitrophic biodiversity and the resulting consequences for ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF) remain poorly understood.

Jellyfish blooms restructure plankton dynamics and trophic linkages in coastal waters
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Jellyfish blooms are increasing globally in frequency and intensity, introducing complex ecological interactions, yet the mechanisms by which they alter ecosystem structure remain poorly characterized due to a lack of sustained field observations.

ABSTRACT The stability of aqueous Zn2+ batteries is severely hindered by parasitic reactions at the Zn anode/electrolyte interface. Herein, itaconic acid (IA) is introduced as an effective electrolyte additive to achieve a highly stable zinc anode. Remarkably, IA concurrently modulates both the zinc anode/electrolyte interfacial structure and the Zn2 ...
