Integrating fossil data in ecological niche models to improve predictions of future habitat of Caribbean corals

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
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

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
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 Cooperative Breeding of the Brown Hornbill (Anorrhinus austeni) in China at the Sino–Lao Frontier 中国中老边境尚勇保护区首次记录白喉犀鸟 (Anorrhinus austeni) 的合作繁殖行为

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 10-15, March 2026.
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

Landscape Composition and Proximity to Water Affect American Badger Occupancy in Shortgrass Prairies 景观组成和与水的距离影响矮草草原中美洲獾的占域率

open access: yesWildlife Letters, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 23-31, March 2026.
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.

Endemic Creature Under the Risk of Extinction: A Case Study on Gekko badenii in Vietnam 濒危特有物种案例研究:越南 金壁虎 (Gekko badenii)

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 2, Page 143-153, June 2025.
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.

Identification of Priority Areas for Conservation of Threatened Agamid Lizards of Sri Lanka Using Species Distribution Modeling 斯里兰卡濒危蜥蜴 (鬣蜥科) 保护优先区域的识别:基于物种分布模型的研究

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 2, Page 188-204, June 2025.
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.

Conservation Gap Within a Nature Reserve: A Case Study in the Biodiversity Hotspot of Rare and Endangered Plants at the Southern Gaoligong Mountains 高黎贡山南段稀有濒危植物保护空缺分析

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 71-84, March 2025.
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

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page 382-397, December 2024.
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.

Projected Climate Scenarios Reveal an Expanding Suitable Habitat for the Critically Endangered African White‐Backed Vulture Gyps africanus 预测的气候情景揭示了极危非洲白背兀鹫的适宜栖息地不断扩展

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page 398-409, December 2024.
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.
