The collective application of shorebird tracking data to conservation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership

Emerging applications of large language models in ecology and conservation science

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Large language models (LLMs) mark a major development in artificial intelligence, with potentially transformative implications for ecology and conservation science. Built on advanced deep‐learning architectures, these models can support a wide range of tasks. We reviewed emerging applications of LLMs, drawing on the wider scientific literature

Evaluating the use of taxonomy in the IUCN Red List

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Taxonomy defines the units that conservationists strive to preserve for future generations. However, the discovery of new species and the taxonomic revision of existing species affect conservation efforts. Despite the importance of taxonomy for a species’ conservation, there is currently no overview of how those leading species extinction risk

Changes in the transformative potential of action proposals in Finnish Red Lists from 1986 to 2019

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Red lists provide critical knowledge regarding biodiversity decline, especially in Finland, where broad assessments have been made regularly since the 1980s. They deliver information on the threat status of species and ecosystems, propose actions to guide conservation policy, and have the potential to spur transformative change.

Modeling seed germination data to meet biodiversity conservation needs in the Mediterranean

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Workflow to assess the availability and quality of germination data and assign species' thermal risk in the Mediterranean. (a) Assessment of data availability, including the phylogenetic distribution of the number of records (i.e. available germination data); (b) data quality assessment; and (c) assignment of climate risk categories for species that ...

Exploring legal‐ and health‐risk messaging to reduce demand for elephant skin

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) are poached for an illegal trade in their skins, which are used in traditional medicine in Africa and Asia. We explored whether messages about the legal and health risks of using elephant skin for medicinal purposes (stomach illness) could reduce such consumption.

Resource Substitution: Local Governments' Issue Attention and Policy Reinvention

Policy Studies Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research on policy reinvention, where a government modifies rather than replicates policy innovations introduced by other governments, has progressed significantly, but how it is influenced by the government's issue attention has not been thoroughly examined.

Mechanoluminescent Mixed‐Anion Borate Sr2B5O9Cl:Eu for Dynamic Anticounterfeiting

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Mechanoluminescence (ML)—the emission of light in response to mechanical stimuli—offers a direct and visually intuitive route for transducing mechanical information into optical signals. Herein, we report a mixed‐anion strategy to prepare mixed‐anion borate Sr2B5O9Cl:Eu phosphors through a facile, low‐temperature, and ambient‐atmosphere solid ...

First Documentation of Two Rare Fern Species in Xishuangbanna National Nature Reserve, Yunnan, China

Integrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 173-176, June 2026.
We report two rare ferns in Menglun Sub‐reserve in Xishuangbanna National Nature Reserve, Yunnan Province, China. These represent the first documented distribution of the previous Laotian endemic fern species in Yunnan and China as well. Our observations confirmed the shared plant diversity in China‐Laos border and also represent the need for more ...

TGM2在肺癌中的表达及诊断意义

Zhongguo shiyan zhenduanxue, 2021
人组织谷氨酰胺转胺酶(TGM2)是一种具有转谷氨酰胺酶交联(TGase)、G蛋白信号转导和激酶活性的多功能酶,被认为在多种疾病中起作用。TGM2的mRNA通过选择性剪接进行调控,产生C端截短形式的TGM2,被预测具有独特的生化特性和生物学功能。本研究将生物信息学手段联合临床分析,基于Western blot方法及免疫组化法验证并观察蛋白TGM2在肺癌中的表达及诊断意义。
