Integrative Conservation, EarlyView.We collated detections of the sun bear from new and previously published camera trap studies across its range. We then analysed these detections at two different spatial scales to assess the habitat associations and diel activity of this species. We found that the sun bear is tolerant to moderate habitat disturbances. ABSTRACT Degraded tropical forests,

Integrative Conservation, EarlyView.This study investigates distribution patterns of Galliforms in the Indian Himalayas, focusing on factors influencing their occurrence, regions of high diversity and endemism, and their overlap with protected areas. Our study highlights the need for assemblage‐level conservation strategies in high Himalaya which primarily relies on snow leopard‐focused ...

Integrative Conservation, EarlyView.Our research allows us to understand the predictors of extinction risk in traditional Chinese medicinal (TCM) plant species with known threat status, and incorporate this knowledge to predict other TCM plants with unknown conservation status in China so as to improve the overall effectiveness of conservation strategies.

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.Climate change drives shifts in suitable habitats for Eurasian lynx and its prey (hare, roe deer) in Mohe, Daxing'anling Mountains. Under RCP scenarios, moderate warming (RCP4.5) promotes substantial habitat expansion, while high‐emission conditions (RCP8.5) lead to strong expansion in the 2050s but slower gains and partial contraction by the 2070s ...

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Decomposition is the transformation of dead organic matter into its inorganic constituents. In most biomes, decomposition rates can be accurately predicted with simple mathematical models, but these models have long under‐predicted decomposition in globally extensive ...

Shuitu Baochi Xuebao, 2021 植被覆盖度变化及其与驱动因子关系的研究是开展大规模植被恢复效益评估的基础，而目前对西南槽谷地区植被绿化的时空变化模式及其驱动因素的认识并不明晰，不利于进一步生态建设。基于2000—2018年西南槽谷区NDVI、气温、降雨、DEM、土地覆被和人口密度数据，应用线性趋势回归分析和Hurst指数分析等方法以及地理探测器模型，探究了西南槽谷区植被覆盖的时空变化特征和驱动因素，预测未来变化趋势。结果表明：（1）近19年来NDVI范围介于0.79~0.84，总体呈波动上升趋势，岩溶区植被NDVI （0.003 17/

Greenhouse gas emissions from croplands of China [PDF]
, 2003 China possesses cropland of 1.33 million km 2. Cultivation of the cropland not only altered the biogeochemical cycles of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) in the agroecosystems but also affected global climate.

Jellyfish blooms restructure plankton dynamics and trophic linkages in coastal waters
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Jellyfish blooms are increasing globally in frequency and intensity, introducing complex ecological interactions, yet the mechanisms by which they alter ecosystem structure remain poorly characterized due to a lack of sustained field observations.

Shuitu Baochi Xuebao, 2017 通过室内水槽模拟冲刷试验，研究缓坡坡降1.4%、流量0.6～1.8 L/s、非淹没条件下，植被类型（柔性植被、刚性植被）和植被配置格局（棋盘状格局、长条状格局、带状格局）对坡面流水深、流速、流态、达西阻力系数等水动力学特性的影响，探究其规律。结果表明：（1）与裸坡相比，植被具有雍水缓流作用，水深雍高1.4～2.8倍，流速延缓31%～65%，植被格局较植被类型作用更为明显，其中柔性植被、带状格局雍水效果最好。（2）坡面流态指数m显示刚性植被、棋盘状格局条件下水流紊动性最强，而坡面综合指数k显示刚性植被 ...
