Rethinking law in books versus law in action in China's first experiment of a personal insolvency regime: Towards a more debtor‐oriented procedural design

open access: yesInternational Insolvency Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Although a local experiment, the promulgation of the Regulations of Shenzhen Special Economic Zone on Personal Bankruptcy (SPBR) in 2020 was hailed as a significant milestone in China's insolvency lawmaking which has thus far addressed only corporate insolvencies.

Multi‐gradient warming reshapes functional traits and adaptive responses of alpine meadow plants

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant functional traits in alpine meadows are critical indicators of ecosystem responses to climate warming, yet dynamic changes in trait networks across warming gradients and their consequences for community functions remain poorly understood.

Phenology drives asymmetric responses of ecosystem productivity stability to warming and cooling

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecosystem productivity stability is a key indicator of ecosystem functioning under climate change, but the role of cooling periods in increasingly variable climates remains poorly resolved.

Evaluating the use of taxonomy in the IUCN Red List

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Taxonomy defines the units that conservationists strive to preserve for future generations. However, the discovery of new species and the taxonomic revision of existing species affect conservation efforts. Despite the importance of taxonomy for a species’ conservation, there is currently no overview of how those leading species extinction risk

Twelve principles for successful governance of community‐based coastal marine restoration

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Global agreements, such as the Global Biodiversity Framework, call for urgent, large‐scale action to halt biodiversity loss through a whole‐of‐society approach. Community‐based restoration can play a crucial role in achieving this goal, yet there remains limited understanding of what makes these projects effective and sustainable.

Assessing and strengthening community‐based coastal governance

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Community‐based coastal governance is essential for biodiversity conservation and sustainable livelihoods, yet many communities continue to face significant challenges in establishing and sustaining effective governance systems. We sought to improve understanding of the current status of community‐based coastal governance across five countries

Comparative species distribution model framework for marine conservation and its application to loggerhead turtles in the Mediterranean

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modeling species distributions in dynamic pelagic environments remains challenging, particularly for wide‐ranging and highly mobile species when there is limited guidance on model performance. This limitation constrains the effective use of species distribution models (SDMs) in marine conservation, where robust and transferable predictions are

基于多元线性回归的变电设备状态评价权重修正模型

open access: yesGaoya dianqi, 2017
为解决多数电网公司所采用的基于导则的打分制变电设备状态评估方法中缺少针对权重修正的闭环反馈,致使评估权重较为固定的问题,文中引入变电设备状态评价权重修正模型,基于历史评估数据与经与状态评级事后有效性评价得到的修正结果,通过多元线性回归模型,给出回归后的理论修正权重,并可根据该结果对状态量权重进行修正。通过理论及应用实例验证表明:文中所提出的通过结合客观的历史检修、运维、评估数据与事后有效性验证的权重修正模型,是一种较为有效的权重修正方法,可以为更准确地为评估变电设备的状态情况提供参考。

Structured decision‐making as a framework to incorporate social equity into conservation decisions

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Many conservation challenges require negotiating trade‐offs between the needs of different actors. Global frameworks such as the Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework explicitly call for diverse participation and social equity in conservation decision‐making.
