Scaling from microsite to landscape to resolve litter decomposition dynamics in globally extensive drylands

open access: yesFunctional 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 ...

Elevation, soil pH and calcium availability shape regional and local scale spatial patterns of PhoD gene abundance in tropical and subtropical forests

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Organic phosphorus mineralization is a critical process in the phosphorus cycle, governing phosphorus bioavailability for plants. The PhoD gene, which encodes the key enzyme alkaline phosphatase, serves as a valuable biomarker for this process.

Nitrogen deposition does not exacerbate phosphorus limitation of rhizosphere microbes in subalpine forests

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The stoichiometric imbalance caused by nitrogen (N) deposition typically exacerbates phosphorus (P) limitation in plants. However, it remains unclear whether this effect extends to soil microbes, particularly those in the rhizosphere.

Jellyfish blooms restructure plankton dynamics and trophic linkages in coastal waters

open access: yesFunctional 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.

Use of species’ responses to cryptic anthropogenic disturbances for monitoring biodiversity outcomes in tropical forests

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Measuring area‐based conservation outcomes in tropical forests is challenging due to cryptic human disturbances (e.g., hunting). As a result, comparative studies of management strategies providing quantitative outcomes remain scarce, especially in the Neotropics.

Using miniaturized laboratory equipment and DNA barcoding to improve conservation genetics training and identify illegally traded species

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Illegal wildlife trade (IWT) is one of the largest global illegal activities, and it negatively affects biodiversity and sustainable development worldwide. DNA barcoding coupled with high‐throughput sequencing (i.e., metabarcoding) is useful in identifying taxa affected by IWT and has been used routinely for decades.

海上风能资源测量及评估中几个关键问题分析 [PDF]

open access: yes全球能源互联网, 2019
海上风能资源的有效测量及合理评估是项目开发的基础。目前,海上风能资源测量及评估方面的研究及规范较少,且其测量环境与陆地差异较大,导致测量和评估有一定难度。适宜的测量高度以及合理的支臂朝向设置是获得有效测量数据的关键。海上测风塔测量环境应与风电场相似,需结合地形具体分析岛礁测风塔的测量高度。为便于塔影效应分析,建议在海上测风塔垂直主导风向的支臂安装两套风速仪。塔影分析与50年一遇最大风速计算是海上风能资源评估的重要问题。考虑到塔体结构差异,海上测风塔塔影效应分析方法与陆地测风塔有所不同 ...

Evaluating past and future contributions of conservation programs to species recovery

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Impact evaluation of conservation actions is a crucial step in global efforts to curb the biodiversity crisis. Through robust impact evaluation, practitioners can assess the effectiveness of conservation strategies and optimize the use of limited resources.

益生菌对菲律宾蛤仔体内全氟辛酸免疫毒性的调节作用研究

open access: yesHaiyang yu huzhao
全氟辛酸(perfluorooctanic acid, PFOA)是一种具有多系统毒性的新污染物,对双壳贝类可产生一定的免疫毒性效应,损害机体的正常免疫功能。益生菌作为一种安全无毒的食品级制剂,已被应用于水产养殖行业,用以提高水生生物的免疫防御能力。然而,益生菌对贝类中新污染物所引发的生物毒性是否有消减作用,目前尚不可知。据前期研究,新污染物PFOA在水生生物尤其贝类中存在较高的蓄积量,具有潜在的生态和健康风险。因此,探索经济贝类中益生菌对PFOA免疫毒性的消减作用具有重要意义 ...
