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.

Hobbyist preferences for pet freshwater turtles
Abstract The burgeoning pet trade is a primary threat to wild freshwater turtles worldwide. Although the risks from commercial exploitation of turtles have been discussed widely, there is little empirical research on preferences for pet turtles from a hobbyists’ perspective.

Nitrogen Transports and Transformations in Mangrove Sediments using Nitrogen Isotope Techniques in China [PDF]
人类活动对生态系统的影响日益扩大,过量施肥、化石燃料的燃烧等引发的氮(N)负荷迅速增加。陆地生态系统过剩的N通过流域汇集至河口和海岸,威胁着海洋生态系统的健康。目前,全球N循环正致力于揭示河口和海岸地区N的源汇格局及主导机制。红树林湿地广泛分布于热带、亚热带河口和海岸地区,作为陆源营养盐入海过渡带,在缓解陆源N输入方面扮演着重要角色,成为了研究的热点。 本研究利用N稳定同位素技术,将现场培养与室内模拟培养相结合,揭示了我国东南沿海典型河口和海湾红树林湿地沉积物总氮沉积、固氮作用、反硝化作用 ...

Threats to and management of Natura 2000 protected areas relative to agricultural practices
Abstract The Natura 2000 (N2K) network combines biodiversity protection and socioeconomic targets. Human activities, such as agricultural practices, can affect biodiversity in N2K sites in diverse ways. Limiting activities with negative impacts while enforcing land management that supports biodiversity is crucial for effective conservation.

In vitro culture, cryopreservation, and field reintroduction of the endangered Mingan thistle
Abstract Current plant conservation efforts are hindered by, for example, poor seed germination, low viability, and insufficient propagation and preservation technologies. To address these problems, we devised an approach to plant conservation that integrates conservation, preservation, and restoration (CPR), which uses advanced in vitro techniques. We

Lessons from an eradication under multiple constraints of an island rat population of record density
Abstract Invasive rats threaten island biodiversity, disrupting ecosystems and endangering native species. Although rat eradication has succeeded on many islands, tropical islands present unique management challenges. Strict regulations and financial constraints on some tropical islands further limit proven eradication methods, complicating rodent ...
