Abstract Ecological niche models (ENMs) are used to assess the abiotic preferences of species by linking their occurrences to the environmental conditions in which they live. We developed a fossil‐informed ENM framework that integrates mid‐Holocene and modern occurrences to test niche stability and reconstruct abiotic niche characteristics for four ...

Biodiversity‐driven spatial conservation planning to delineate temporally stable regions
Abstract The accelerating loss of biodiversity underscores the critical need for effective conservation strategies, particularly in the face of climate change and anthropogenic pressures. We devised a conservation planning framework that adopts a temporal stacking approach to species distribution models and landscape connectivity analyses. These models

First confirmed breeding of the Brown Hornbill in China, documented through cooperative feeding in Shangyong Protected Area. ABSTRACT The Brown Hornbill (Anorrhinus austeni), a Near Threatened frugivore, reaches the northern edge of its distribution in southern Yunnan, China, yet breeding had not been previously documented with site‐attributed nests in

American badgers, a medium‐sized carnivore occurring in much of North America, are important predators in prairie landscapes though our understanding of their habitat use requirements in these areas is unclear. We used a multi‐scale approach to understand American badger habitat use at both local and landscape scales.

This study provided information on the abundance, population demography and activity pattern of an endangered species of Gekko badenii at the type locality of Ba Den Mountain, southern Vietnam. Local and international use and trade in Gekko badenii for food consumption and as pet were investigated and conservation recommendations highlighted.

We assessed the distribution of 14 threatened agamid lizard species using Species Distribution Modeling to identify hotspots for these species' conservation. Based on the results, high‐priority areas of threatened agamids were projected to occur specially in the wet zone.

Gaoligong Mountain is home to a large number of rare and endangered species, but the effectiveness of conservation measures in the Gaoligong Mountain Nature Reserve remains uncertain. We predicted the potential distribution areas of 361 rare and endangered wild plants in southern Gaoligong Mountain under current and future climate change scenarios and ...

Guanotrophy: Waterbirds Pay for Using Resources at Their Wintering Habitats 鸟粪营养学 :水鸟在越冬栖息地使用资源后留下回报
Significant waterbird colonisation was recorded in the wintering period (October through March in 2018–2019 and 2019–2020) in wetlands on Central Asian and East Australasian Flyways. Different limnochemical conditions influenced nitrate and phosphate concentrations.

Understanding the potential impacts of projected climate change scenarios on critically endangered species is critical to guide effective conservation planning. Species distribution modelling techniques such as MaxEnt are increasingly becoming important tools for predicting habitat shifts in response to projected climate change scenarios.
