Effects of landscape fragmentation on floodplain fishes as revealed by species–habitat networks

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract How species interact with habitat patches is influenced primarily by habitat configuration (e.g., connectivity) and species’ functional traits. As levels of fragmentation increase, identifying the intricate connections between these components is crucial for biodiversity conservation.

Soil Seed Bank in Different Vegetation Patches in Dry Valleys of Minjiang River

open access: yes, 2015
岷江干旱河谷生境恶劣,植物种群呈斑块状单物种聚集分布,研究植物斑块及斑块下土壤种子库的特征,有利于指导植被的自然恢复更新工作。选择岷江干旱河谷广泛存在的10种植物斑块,进行植物斑块特征的调查及斑块内土壤种子库的采样分析,结果表明:白刺花(Sophora davidii)、刺旋花(Convolvulus tragacanthoides)、金花蚤草(Pulicaria chrysantha)、矮探春(Jasminum humile)、川甘亚菊(Ajania potaninii)、小叶杭子梢 ...

Herbivore species and patch heterogeneity modulate grazing‐induced shifts in soil nematode trophic structure and energy flux

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 163-175, January 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Grazing by large herbivores is a critical factor shaping grassland biodiversity and ecosystem functioning worldwide, yet its consequences for soil communities remain poorly understood.

Return of the Swamp Rabbit: Sylvilagus aquaticus Occupancy Increased and Expanded Along the Northern Extent of Its Distribution Range 沼泽兔的回归:沼泽兔 (Sylvilagus aquaticus) 在其分布范围北缘的分布率上升并向外扩张

open access: yesWildlife Letters, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page 161-172, December 2025.
Swamp rabbit (Sulvilagus aquaticus) in southeast Missouri is increasing and expanding, with occupancy probabilities of 0.66 in 2010–2012 and 0.79 in 2021–2022. ABSTRACT Swamp rabbits (Sylvilagus aquaticus) are a bottomland hardwood specialist that have experienced range contraction at the northern and western extents of their range.

Finding floral and faunal species richness optima among active fire regimes

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Changing fire regimes have important implications for biodiversity and challenge traditional conservation approaches that rely on historical conditions as proxies for ecological integrity. This historical‐centric approach becomes increasingly tenuous under climate change, necessitating direct tests of environmental impacts on biodiversity.

声辐射力脉冲(ARFI)成像技术在评估颈部血管斑块的价值分析 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
目的:对声辐射力脉冲(ARFI)成像技术在评估颈部血管斑块的价值进行分析。方法:回顾性分析2013年6月-2016年6月于本院医治的缺血性脑卒中患者114例为研究组,同期选取于我院检查的健康人群104例为对照组。两组均予以ARFI成像技术检查,测量记录斑块剪切波传播速度(SWV),观察两组斑块检出率,各类型斑块SWV均值,两组各类型斑块分布情况。结果:研究组共114人,检出有斑块的79例,共检出163个斑块,其中强回声36个、低回声51个、等回声31个、混合回声45个;对照组共104人 ...

Importance of connectivity for carnivore richness and occupancy in fragmented biodiversity hotspots

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Structural connectivity affects wildlife movement between habitat patches, contributing to the persistence of wildlife populations and their resilience to human‐induced and environmental changes. However, its importance to wildlife population persistence remains unclear, particularly in fragmented landscapes, where there are additional co ...

First report of a papillomavirus‐induced viral plaque in the mouth of a dog

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 36, Issue 5, Page 703-706, October 2025.
A mass that was histologically consistent with a pigmented viral plaque developed in the mouth of a dog. Canis familiaris papillomavirus type 16, which has been detected in cutaneous viral plaques, was amplified from the lesion. This is the first report of an oral viral plaque in a dog.

A Piece of the Puzzle: Evaluating the Effectiveness of the Newly Designated Qilianshan National Park (China) and Its Contribution to Snow Leopard (Panthera Uncia) Habitat Connectivity 拼图之一:评估新建祁连山国家公园 (中国) 的有效性及其对雪豹 (Panthera Uncia) 栖息地连通性的贡献

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 287-301, September 2025.
Qilianshan National Park covers approximately 40% of core snow leopard habitat patches and 50% of movement corridors between patches. Including more of these important areas within the park boundaries should be considered, as the Qilianshan National Park sits at a pivotal juncture between critical snow leopard habitat in China and Mongolia, and may ...

Ecological Restoration of Rubber Monocultures: Strategies for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Recovery in Tropical Regions 题目:如何将橡胶林恢复为多样森林?

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 345-353, September 2025.
Restoration of monoculture in protected and marginal areas can be organized into two phases (1) identification and prioritization of restoration sites based on remote sensing or field survey then assessing degradation level, and (2) implementation of appropriate restoration interventions.
