Identification of Priority Areas for Conservation of Threatened Agamid Lizards of Sri Lanka Using Species Distribution Modeling 斯里兰卡濒危蜥蜴 (鬣蜥科) 保护优先区域的识别:基于物种分布模型的研究

Integrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 2, Page 188-204, June 2025.
We assessed the distribution of 14 threatened agamid lizard species using Species Distribution Modeling to identify hotspots for these species' conservation. Based on the results, high‐priority areas of threatened agamids were projected to occur specially in the wet zone.

岷山北部大熊猫栖息地破碎化研究

四川大学学报. 自然科学版, 2010
以全国第三次大熊猫调查数据和2005～2007年的野外调查数据为基础,利用地理信息系统、遥感软件和景观格局分析软件,对岷山北部区域大熊猫生境的分布、适宜性和空间格局进行了分析,结果表明:（1）在岷山北部791445.51 hm2的研究区域内,大熊猫潜在生境的面积为91129.14 hm2,由于人为活动的影响,实际生境面积仅为89113.5 hm2,占研究区域总面积的11.26%;（2）在大熊猫实际生境中,适宜栖息地面积占30.4%,最适合大熊猫取食的竹类盖度（大于50%）的竹林面积仅占实际生境的20.2%

Conservation Gap Within a Nature Reserve: A Case Study in the Biodiversity Hotspot of Rare and Endangered Plants at the Southern Gaoligong Mountains 高黎贡山南段稀有濒危植物保护空缺分析

Integrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 71-84, March 2025.
Gaoligong Mountain is home to a large number of rare and endangered species, but the effectiveness of conservation measures in the Gaoligong Mountain Nature Reserve remains uncertain. We predicted the potential distribution areas of 361 rare and endangered wild plants in southern Gaoligong Mountain under current and future climate change scenarios and ...

Strangler fig–host tree associations: Insights into the ecology and management of tropical urban green spaces

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 159-175, January 2025.
The strangler fig is known for its hemiepiphytic growth form and conspicuous strangling behavior in the tropics worldwide. It also plays an important role in providing ecological functions in tropical urban ecosystems. This study reveals strangler figs tend to colonize large trees with suitable microsites in a large tropical botanical garden and cause ...

Influence of microclimate and forest management on bat species faced with global change

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 4, August 2024.
Abstract Climate refugia, areas where climate is expected to remain relatively stable, can offer a near‐term safe haven for species sensitive to warming temperatures and drought. Understanding the influence of temperature, moisture, and disturbance on sensitive species is critical during this time of rapid climate change.

Range‐wide prediction of habitat suitability for king cobras under current and future scenarios 在当前和未来情景下眼镜王蛇栖息地适宜性的全域预测

Integrative Conservation, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 134-141, June 2024.
Potential distribution scenarios of Ophiophagus hannah in current and future climate change scenarios indicate highly suitable areas for this reptile will increase over the period and will shift towards the north of Asia. This may have a prospective alteration in human‐snake encounters in these areas of Asia accordingly.

Using explainable machine learning methods to evaluate vulnerability and restoration potential of ecosystem state transitions

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 3, June 2024.
Abstract Ecosystem state transitions can be ecologically devastating or be a restoration success. State transitions are common within aquatic systems worldwide, especially considering human‐mediated changes to land use and water use. We created a transferable conceptual framework to enable multiscale assessments of state resilience and early warnings ...
