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 ...

An emerging coastal wetland management dilemma between mangrove expansion and shorebird conservation

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 5, October 2022., 2022
Abstract Coastal wetlands around the world have been degraded by human activities. Global declines in the extent of important coastal wetlands, including mangroves, salt marshes, and tidal flats, necessitate mitigation and restoration efforts. However, some well‐meaning management actions, particularly mangrove afforestation, can inadvertently cause ...

Key n‐Gram Extractions and Analyses of Different Registers Based on Attention Network

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Key n -gram extraction can be seen as extracting n‐grams which can distinguish different registers. Keyword (as n = 1, 1‐gram is the keyword) extraction models are generally carried out from two aspects, the feature extraction and the model design.

Drivers of plant traits that allow survival in wetlands

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 5, Page 956-967, May 2020., 2020
A free Plain Language Summary can be found within the Supporting Information of this article. Abstract Plants have developed a suite of traits to survive the anaerobic and anoxic soil conditions in wetlands. Previous studies on wetland plant adaptive traits have focused mainly on physiological aspects under experimental conditions, or compared the ...

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,

Identifying potentially suitable and accessible refugia to mitigate impacts of an emerging disease on a rare tree

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Identifying refugia from emerging threats is vital to ensure the persistence of rare and threatened species, but modeling habitat distribution for these species is challenging and the role of people in refuge management is rarely considered. Myrtle rust is an emerging infectious disease that represents a grave threat to the rare wetland tree ...

Seasonality of temperature dependence of methane fluxes from natural wetlands

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 9, Page 2383-2397, September 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Temperature dependence is a crucial parameter in estimating methane (CH4) fluxes from natural wetlands, yet our understanding of this parameter remains inadequate. Seasonal fluctuations in water levels and ecosystem productivity lead to seasonal differences in CH4 ...

China's Eco‐Civilisation, Climate Leviathan, and Hobbesian Energy Transition

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 57, Issue 3, Page 830-861, May 2025.
Abstract Scholars have hitherto tended to theorise China's ecological civilisation project either as a form of environmental authoritarianism or as a vision of eco‐socialism. This paper contributes to the conversation by conducting a textual analysis of Chinese scholarly discussions on eco‐civilisation.

Servicesheds connect people to the landscapes upon which they depend

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 112-126, January 2025.
Abstract Ecosystem services (ES) are benefits people receive from nature. To sustain these benefits, we need to spatially connect communities benefitting from specific ES with landscape features that generate the ES. A variety of process‐based models support ES assessments by estimating the biophysical supply of ES that comes from landscapes.

The enigmatic life history of the bamboo explained as a strategy to arrest succession

open access: yesEcological Monographs, Volume 94, Issue 4, November 2024.
Abstract Bamboos are perennial woody grasses that display an enigmatic mix of traits. Bamboo is highly shade intolerant like early‐successional trees. Without secondary xylem, bamboos cannot continue to grow once they reach a maximum height or replace xylem damaged by hydraulic stress and must instead replace each stem after a few years using ...
