Between conflict and coexistence: Wildlife in rubber‐dominated landscapes 冲突与共存之间:橡胶林主导景观中的野生动物
Integrative Conservation, Volume 2, Issue 4, Page 240-254, December 2023., 2023 Natural habitat loss forces some wildlife species to increasingly extend their habitats into farmlands. Rubber‐dominated landscapes surrounding protected areas have the potential to facilitate coexistence between people and some wildlife species if young plants are better protected and plantation management is made more wildlife‐friendly.

Integrative Conservation, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page 133-139, September 2023., 2023 Invertebrate‐derived DNA (iDNA) has enabled the identification and quantification of ecological interactions within trophic networks and its use in biodiversity assessment. The dung beetle iDNA currently uses live beetles. However, the effectiveness of the iDNA approach hinges on the successful detection of mammalian DNA from specimens collected via ...

Wildlife Letters, Volume 1, Issue 2, Page 59-70, June 2023., 2023 We used three robust modeling approaches and the largest empirical dataset yet collected for Sunda pangolin to investigate their habitat associations and the likelihood of spatially and temporally overlapping with humans. We found the species has an inconsistent response to disturbances across multiple scales, expected to be driven by Singapore's ...

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 3, June 2023., 2023 Abstract Conservation decisions are invariably made with incomplete data on species’ distributions, habitats, and threats, but frameworks for allocating conservation investments rarely account for missing data. We examined how explicit consideration of missing data can boost return on investment in ecosystem restoration, focusing on the challenge of ...

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 2, April 2023., 2023 Abstract Larval dispersal is an important component of marine reserve networks. Two conceptually different approaches to incorporate dispersal connectivity into spatial planning of these networks exist, and it is an open question as to when either is most appropriate.

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 2, April 2023., 2023 Abstract Biodiversity offsets aim to counterbalance the residual impacts of development on species and ecosystems. Guidance documents explicitly recommend that biodiversity offset actions be located close to the location of impact because of higher potential for similar ecological conditions, but allowing greater spatial flexibility has been proposed ...

Understanding the drivers of expert opinion when classifying species as extinct
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 1, February 2023., 2023 Abstract The criteria as laid out by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List are the gold standard by which the extinction risk of a species is assessed and where appropriate biological extinctions are declared. However, unlike all other categories, the category of extinct lacks a quantitative framework for assigning this

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 1, February 2023., 2023 Abstract The conservation of long‐distance migratory birds requires coordination between the multiple countries connected by the movements of these species. The recent expansion of tracking studies is shedding new light on these movements, but much of this information is fragmented and inaccessible to conservation practitioners and policy makers.

浙江九龙山国家级自然保护区黑麂日活动节律和垂直迁移的季节变化
野生动物学报, 2023 为准确全面地了解黑麂（Muntiacus crinifrons）在九龙山国家级自然保护区的日活动节律和某些栖息地生态因子选择的季节性规律，于2017年10月—2021年2月，在九龙山国家级自然保护区采用红外相机法对黑麂日活动节律和垂直迁移的季节变化进行研究。研究期间，共拍摄到352张黑麂照片，提取到243次有效探测。结果显示：黑麂是晨昏双峰型的昼行性动物。通过四季对比发现，黑麂夏季的活动强度比春季、秋季和冬季高，而各季节间的日活动高峰期时间段和数量存在差异。黑麂 偏好栖息于坡度为20°~40 ...
