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.

Identification, spatial distribution, and associated factors of urban protected areas in China
Abstract The increasing proximity between protected areas (PAs) and urban areas, which can lead to urban protected areas (UPAs), is now commonplace. Use of Euclidean distance to measure the distance between PAs and cities has not correctly portrayed the spatial relationship between PAs and cities.

Engaging youth in biodiversity education through visual narrative
Abstract Engaging youth in early and sustained conservation education has important implications for promoting positive attitudes and behaviors in those who will become the future of conservation and management. Toward this goal, visual narratives (comic books, graphic novels) are an increasingly popular method used by conservation scientists to ...

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

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant phosphorus (P) acquisition strategy is considered to be an intrinsic driver behind plant succession. However, variations in plant P acquisition strategies in connection to soil P fraction changes after wetland drainage remain unclear.

2008年68月在洪河国家级自然保护区沼泽湿地015 m贴地气层内,进行了6个高度的气温和相对湿度的野外定位观测。根据实测数据,分析了夏季晴天沼泽湿地贴地气层的气温和相对湿度的日变化特征。结果表明,夏季晴天沼泽湿地贴地气层内,气温日变化曲线为单峰型曲线,各高度的日最高气温和日最低气温分别出现在14∶00和03∶00,日平均气温和气温日较差都随高度递减。气温廓线有夜间辐射型、早上过渡型、白天日射型及傍晚过渡型4种分布类型。夏季晴天,0.515 m的日平均气温直减率为0.10℃/m ...

Abstract Eradicating invasive predators from islands can result in substantial recovery of seabirds, but the mechanisms that drive population changes remain poorly understood. Meta‐analyses have recently revealed that immigration is surprisingly important to the recovery of philopatric seabirds, but it is not known whether dispersal and philopatry ...

毛苔草、漂筏苔草沼泽地与大豆地近地层晴夜气温和相对湿度分布及对比研究
采用野外定位观测方法,在2008年6~9月期间选取16个晴夜,在三江平原典型毛苔草、漂筏苔草(Ass.Carex pseudocuraica-Carex lasiocarpa)沼泽地及其邻近大豆地中,在距地表0.5m、1.5m、3m和5m四个高度上进行了气温和相对湿度观测;根据实测数据,分析了沼泽地和大豆地各高度夜间气温和相对湿度的分布规律及其差异。研究结果显示,晴夜,沼泽地和大豆地近地层气温的垂直分布都为逆温分布,与之相对应,二者的相对湿度垂直分布都为湿型分布 ...
