Spectacled Flying‐fox conflicts—tucker, totem, taunt and threat 眼镜狐蝠的冲突——食物、图腾、挑战与威胁
Flying‐foxes worldwide have suffered population declines, including the Spectacled Flying‐fox of north‐east Australia which experienced a population crash of over 75% in <15 years. Persuading people that the Spectacled Flying‐fox is important, even vital for the rainforests and tall forests that they love, takes engagement, narrative and story‐telling.

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 ...

Leaf morphological traits as adaptations to multiple climate gradients
The plastic response of size, shape, colour and other leaf morphological traits to climate is muted, thus their apparent shift along climate gradients reflects plant adaptations to environment at a community level as determined by species replacement.

Translating habitat class to land cover to map area of habitat of terrestrial vertebrates
Abstract Area of habitat (AOH) is defined as the “habitat available to a species, that is, habitat within its range” and is calculated by subtracting areas of unsuitable land cover and elevation from the range. The International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Habitats Classification Scheme provides information on species habitat ...

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,

Background: Normal hydration of the canine epidermis is imperative for cutaneous homeostasis. Xerosis may be encountered in canine atopic dermatitis and may be aggravated by topical antiseptics. Hypothesis and Objectives: To evaluate the hydrating properties and the safety of a spray (Sensiderm spray; MP Labo) when applied after shampooing healthy dogs

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 ...

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

Lack of species information complicates understanding climate change vulnerability, but life history traits can be proxies for missing information. In the north‐central United States, useful traits for discriminating vulnerability of amphibians include range size, clutch size, diel activity patterns, and habitat breadth.
