The fine‐scale movement pattern of Amur tiger (Panthera tigris altaica) responds to winter habitat permeability 小尺度下东北虎 (Panthera Tigris altaica) 的运动模式对冬季栖息地渗透性的响应

open access: yesWildlife Letters, Volume 1, Issue 3, Page 119-130, September 2023., 2023
We collected Amur tiger track data and occurrence data through snow track tracking, sample line surveys, and camera traps. The study concluded that forest roads, scrub vegetation, and human landscape factors were the main factors influencing Amur tiger movements at fine scales and examined the negative correlation between tiger path curvature values ...

Mesopredators in forest edges 森林边缘地带的中级捕食者

open access: yesWildlife Letters, Volume 1, Issue 3, Page 107-118, September 2023., 2023
A key Asian mesopredator (leopards cats) is positively associated with forest edges and oil palm plantations. Abstract Fragments and edges account for most remaining forest habitats globally. Apex predators and megaherbivores often decline in these degraded habitats while smaller generalist omnivores can persist or thrive in forest edges, especially if

Modelling past and future land‐use changes from mining, agriculture, industry and biodiversity in a rapidly developing Southeast Asian region 采矿、农业、工业和生物多样性保护影响下东南亚快速发展区域过去和未来土地利用变化模拟

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 43-61, March 2023., 2023
We apply an integrative perspective to modelling current and future land‐use change in Kuantan, Malaysia, a location with highly biodiverse forests, and also a hotspot of land‐use change. The region is representative of the types of development challenges faced by countries in Southeast Asia, which are also biodiversity hotspots.

Effects of interactions between anthropogenic stressors and recurring perturbations on ecosystem resilience and collapse

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 1, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Insights into declines in ecosystem resilience and their causes and effects can inform preemptive action to avoid ecosystem collapse and loss of biodiversity, ecosystem services, and human well‐being. Empirical studies of ecosystem collapse are rare and hampered by ecosystem complexity, nonlinear and lagged responses, and interactions across ...

Combined impacts of future climate‐driven vegetation changes and socioeconomic pressures on protected areas in Africa

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 6, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Africa's protected areas (PAs) are the last stronghold of the continent's unique biodiversity, but they appear increasingly threatened by climate change, substantial human population growth, and land‐use change. Conservation planning is challenged by uncertainty about how strongly and where these drivers will interact over the next few decades.

Advancing Water Security in the Tropical and Subtropical Regions: An Integrative Topic Modeling Approach

open access: yesWorld Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Water security in tropical regions faces escalating pressures from climate change, land‐use shifts, and population growth. We conducted a bibliometric review of 1146 peer‐reviewed articles (1964–2023) on tropical water security. Latent Dirichlet Allocation identified 13 thematic topics and their evolution. Publications rose sharply after 2012,

Underrepresentation of bats in Africa's protected areas

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Biodiversity is severely threatened globally, with habitat loss and other human pressures accelerating species extinctions. Protected areas (PAs) are a critical conservation tool; however, their effectiveness in safeguarding many taxa, such as bats, remains unclear.

Threshold responses of floating meadow fish communities to floodplain forest cover in the lower Amazon River

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Forest cover is positively associated with fish biomass and fisheries yield in the Amazon River floodplain, and many species enter flooded forests to feed, spawn, or seek refuge from predation. Floating macrophyte beds, known as floating meadows, in Amazon floodplains support high fish diversity and serve as nursery habitat for many fishes of ...

Impact of endometrial thickness on reproductive outcome in fresh and frozen–thawed embryo transfer: systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesUltrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 66, Issue 3, Page 271-281, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the impact of endometrial thickness on the reproductive outcomes of embryo transfer (ET) treatments using both cut‐off‐based meta‐analysis and meta‐analysis of proportions. Methods This was a systematic review and meta‐analysis of comparative studies (randomized controlled trials, cohort studies, case–control studies) and

Altered nutrient cycling functionality in seagrass meadows under a simulated future marine heatwave event

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 6, Page 2616-2629, September 2025.
Summary Seagrasses are important contributors to environmental nutrient cycling in marine ecosystems and can improve water quality by absorbing excess nitrogen (N). However, these ecosystems are vulnerable to human‐mediated pressures, including marine heatwaves (MHWs), particularly those of longer duration. We performed an experiment simulating a 30‐d,
